We all know Winters have finally arrived, and it's not just women who need to look good, but men too. Winters is all about layering yourself. But that layering must look fashionable and keep you warm too. Each passing day you discover some new trend, but there are some small hacks that will help you keep warm and stylish in no efforts-
Swap Outer Layers
If you, like many of us, have a puffa jacket for weekends/casual outings and a tailored overcoat for work, try inverting the game.
Wear your puffa over the suit. You might want to invest in a slightly roomier version to accommodate the jacket. It’s less expected and won’t raise eyebrows in the office, where it will be removed. The same goes for other traditionally casual outerwear silhouettes such as your fur-collared parka or bold coloured duffle coat.
Switch Your Middle Layers
There are clear guidelines: knitted jumpers for smart-casual wear and dressing down your tailoring, sweatshirts for casual getups. Break this rule.
A classic grey crew neck sweat over your shirt will revolutionise casual Friday, and, whether you agree with me or not, wearing cashmere to the gym is just too cool for words.

Boot Up
Perhaps the greatest thing about winter is the freedom to explore extreme footwear, with your alibi provided by the weather.
Army boots, unusually thick lug soles, shoe-trainer hybrids – they’re all fair game. You need your soles to grip on the wet, icy pavement, to keep your ankles warm and such.
Sunglasses In Winter
No, they’re not just a summer item. No, they don’t look silly on a cold day. They protect your eyes from light, and bright winter days (particularly after it has been snowing) can be just as blinding.
From a style perspective, shades finish off your winter look, add mystery and act as efficient shields – when people are cranky due to the weather, or when you’re tired, have a cold or just don’t want to be too accessible.
Alternative Outer Layer
This is the boldest piece of advice in this guide, and should only be followed if you feel 100 per cent sure of what you’re doing: skip your coat and go for an on-trend blanket, poncho or cape-like piece that will bring attention to you.
