Step up your layering game, ladies! Even if those temps keep dropping – you can look chic and stay cozy. Bundle up. No need to freeze in fashion. Lift that fashion burden of looking frumpy in the cold. You can stay cozy and chic even in the cold. And – you can do this right now. A little twist to a layering technique. So obvious – yet, are you doing it?
Put together these layering outfit ideas in seconds! In your closet. Right now. No need to buy one more item to stuff into your space. All you need to do is think. Keep it simple. Layering is about…adding layers. What are the rules? Are there any? Or…can you try out new ways to layer while being seriously super basic about it?
Here’s the thing. Layering has traditionally meant adding a blazer or a jacket or a scarf (or all of the above) to the foundation of your outfit. Check and Check. Been there – done that. <and love that….> But…. What about adding a SWEATER to your SWEATER?
#MindBlown
Here’s how to look cute in the snow and STILL stay warm. Layer a sweater over your sweater. The TOP TRENDING item this year has been chunky sweaters. Guessing you have a pile of them by now. If not, THESE are 40% off with NO code needed!
Winter Layering Guidelines
- First layer: Choose your fave chunky sweater like THIS one (now on sale!).
- Second layer: Choose a LONG cardigan to add on top, like THIS one.
- Other Outfit Essentials: Because you are adding bulk to the top (cozy bulk, to be specific), keep the rest of your look sleek. Camo leggings = perfect = on major rotation x ten = need more!
- Accessorize: A simple necklace (like THIS one) and some stackable rings (LOVE these) maintain a chic balance so the look does NOT get overwhelming. No big statement pieces, please. The layers of your sweaters is plenty.
Simple, right? Try it. Go to your closet. Find a few faves and see how you can mix and match to make it work! #TimGunn.

Super cute outfit! The camo leggings add a sense of fun to the outfit. I would not have thought of wearing a sweater over a sweater. It doesn’t look bulky. In fact, the pieces that you chose are very flattering.
You should see how many layers I’ve been wearing, but of course mine don’t look nearly as good as yours do. That chunky sweater is adorable and those boots are just plain awesome.
You make winter look good! I feel like a big puffy human over here with all my layers. And I just wear the same things over and over, haha!
Hahaha put a sweater over your sweater cracks me up!! So simple yet super effective and some people don’t think about doing these things! I love having a long jacket for the office because they blast the air conditioning sometimes. Great post!
You are looking great in the snow. I like to wear layers as well. I am hot natured anyway, and when I get back inside, I usually start jerking off clothes as fast as I can.
I love your look! A big comfy sweater and some cute leggings are always in style. Now I just wish Atlanta had some of that beautiful snow.
I love layering in the winter season! It’s a great way to add some warmth without adding too much bulk and still having style! Your long sweater looks so cozy.
The layered sweater look is gorgeous and it does look warm without looking bulky. I am digging the snowing picture, so serene and matches your look perfectly.
I love layering with leggings and cardigans! They are so versatile and can be dressed up or down which I love! You have an adorable outfit!
I like the sweater and cardigan layered look. And it keeps you comfortable and warm – great perks all around.
Your pictures are giving me snow envy. I hate cold and snow really but you look so cool in your photoshoot with the snow! Definitely love the Starbucks cameo lol
I love this cozy look so much! Cardigans are my thing and those sunglasses girl! Looking great!
I love wearing layers.. it’s great for Texas winters. Which is not a real winter! But it’s like 40s in the morning & 70 by afternoon. So layers work great!. Love your leggings!
I live in warm coastal texas so our cold snaps don’t last long. I’m moving to the smoky mountains in TN in June so I will certainly be layering next winter!
I Love the layered look in the winter and totally love that sweater! Although some days here you would need a super heavy coat over top!
I love the layered look. You look amazing. I have such a hard time with fashion. Its such a hard thing for me to grasp. But, I would love to try this look! Looks great and you look cozy!
You always look so perfect! I love the boots and the sweater. The camo leggings are great too.
You look lovely. Very pretty. I love your coat/wrap. xx
Love this look. I love winter as it means I can start wearing my cozy jumpers, and layer them up with other jumpers!
Can you please come dress me??? Please? Love this look! I am going to go broke shopping your links!
You look nice and warm. I have some similar boots that I love.
Girl look how much snow you guys have! You look amazing as always. I love how cozy it all looks.
I love long cardigans – they’re so perfect for laying because they’re warm and cosy. I live in them whether I’m going out in the cold for staying at home
This might sound weird but I don’t really know how to style layers. But this post has helped me. You look so effortlessly chic but so warm. Love it!
Your looks make me long for a proper winter. Cold weather fashion is just so much fun!
That’s all I do. I don’t shop for winter/fall. I just layer everything and make it comfy.
Agreed: layers is the only way to go in such cold weather!! I do love wearing cardigans in winter too as those always feel so cozy and look so elegant!
By the way, love your winter boots so much!

I usually don’t get into camouflage that much anymore, but I adore the leggings that you’re wearing – so cute! I agree that layering can help create a cozy, yet chic look for winter.
Girlllll, you look so fabulous. I LOVE this entire outfit, and you absolutely look cozy and chic. I love the long cardigan, but those boots are really calling my name. LOVE them! xx Adaleta Avdic
