One particular piece may be expensive and you may think that it’s just a matter of few months but always remember that these pieces are your wardrobe’s staple and stays for a long time! Which means you won’t be investing in it again and again. Just treat (maintain) your warm clothes nicely and you surely would rock every winter season in a distinguished style!

The Great Online Shopping Festival (GOSF) was conceived by Google India in collaboration with India’s leading e-commerce players in 2012. Last year I went crazy shopping & I hopped from one site to another. But this time no jumping here & there as I have a unique destination for-  “Fashion & style coupons and deals”. Here you would also find deals on products in leading categories like Electronics, amazing Travel deals, Home & Decor etc.

1) Scarf- Draped scarves is having great vogue. They come in different material and patterns. Cashmere and wool scarves are your safest bet for chilly cold days. Vibrant checkered scarves & ones with vintage pattern is winter season’s sweetheart and always go like hot cakes.

2) Beanie or a French cap & hand, leg warmers- Now you don’t need to compromise on looking glamorous even during this season! Match  perfect cute looking beanie, French caps or Flat caps with your outfit. Though personally I like wearing a woolen hand knitted beret more but I do like to wear a slouchy beanie too.

Talking about the warmers. I love wearing hand & leg warmers so much! Few years in China & it taught me to stay warm in such cute ways that I would cherish always! These warmers pair perfectly with leggings, tights and even short dresses.

3) Sweaters- Pullover, cardigan or knitted sweater are a must haves and you simply cannot survive winters without these items! And when it comes to being stylish in these wear you gotta pick stuff that is a bit different than the usual designs! Yes, go for a shawl collar cardigan instead the simple buttoned one or maybe a knit fringe cardigan!

4) Long coats- Long coats go well with a pair of jeans & boots and even with dresses. Break the chain of monotonous looks and get nice bright colors of long coats. I love my yellow color long coat so much but if you aren’t confident enough to experiment then black is your color!

And if you fed up with long coats then try a nice sporty puffer jacket! I have one in coral and absolutely love it.

5) Boots- Invest in a nice pair of winter boots those are also waterproof. At least I think that ways that a good pair of boots should be waterproof. But what’s of utmost importance is that you get one in which you are comfortable & that keeps you warm. There are a number of suede, leather & wool boots to choose from and grab one according to your taste and budget.
