Stylish Winter Accessories for Women

Written by: Niki Landry

Over Knee High Thigh-High Cotton Socks

Over The Knee Socks

If you are fortunate enough to live in a place with mild winters then skirts and dresses are still an outfit option throughout the season. Instead of bearing the discomfort of tummy pinching tights, buy a pair of thigh high socks. Layer over leggings, wear with booties, or peeking out the top of over the knee boots to keep your legs warm and your outfits sharp.

Cashmere Knit Long Fingerless Arm Warmers 

Elbow Length Gloves

With the rise in popularity of the poncho and cape, fashionable girls need a way to keep their hands and arms cozy without the help of a sleeve. In comes the long glove.

A set of knit gloves with an elongated cuff is sure to keep your hands warm and your outfit stylish. These gloves look great paired with bracelet length coats, under ponchos, or quarter length sweaters or tops.

Compass Rose Travel Packing Cubes
