Street fashion or street wear has always been different from the main fashion trends. The emphasis here is on individuality and originality. The special magic of street fashion is that despite the riot of combined styles, the resulting images come out unusual and stylish. However, here, as in any other fashion trend, there are trends and rules. What distinguished street fashion this year, winter 2020 definitely promises to be bright. We will tell you in this article what fashionable innovations have been made in this direction.
How to look stylish in winter: features of outerwear
1. Coat. This will upset many fashionistas, but the coat is definitely not suitable for sub-zero temperatures. Style rules require that the coat remain thin, so a layer of insulation will negate all the elegance of this item of clothing.
Coats made of raincoat fabric also belong to the category of “anti-style”.
Therefore, as soon as the autumn coat stops warming even when paired with a warm sweater, you will have to hang it in the closet until spring arrives, and get a down jacket, fur coat or sheepskin coat to replace it.
2. Down jacket. How to look stylish in winter in a down jacket? Oversized style is in trend, so choose voluminous models with a simple cut and without unnecessary decoration. Please note that cropped down jackets will add unnecessary simplicity to your look. Together with jeans and boots, they do not make the best impression, despite the fact that this particular look is one of the most popular in our country in winter.
Unfortunately, you won’t be able to look elegant in a down jacket, and all attempts to make it more feminine end in failure. A jacket style that imitates a coat or dress is immediately discarded. A shortened model with ¾ sleeves will also not add beauty to the down jacket.
3. Sheepskin coat. The trend is for the simplest pilot-type models in oversized sizes. Made from well-crafted leather in neutral shades and without unnecessary details.
4. Parka. A universal answer to the question: how can men and women look stylish in winter? A win-win option is parkas in neutral colors: khaki, blue, olive. You can find a suitable model in mass market stores and in the sports department. The parka is well suited for outdoor activities, so manufacturers offer jackets designed for different temperature conditions.
5. Fur coat. Pleasure is not cheap. If funds are limited, it is better to buy a parka and a sheepskin coat so as not to limit yourself in style.
When buying outerwear, you should not take one size at a time; the jacket or fur coat should be loose enough so that you can wear a warm jacket or sweater underneath if the thermometer suddenly shows -25 °C.
Women's winter street fashion
With the onset of winter, rain and gloomy skies are replaced by snow and gusts of cold wind, so the entire autumn wardrobe is complemented by warmer outfits, which, despite the volume, still emphasize the individuality of each young lady and look very cool. Sheepskin coats, down jackets, fur coats and fur capes neatly push light raincoats and cashmere coats into the background, and looks are complemented by all kinds of hats and scarves. A fashionable down jacket for an urban winter, first of all, should be comfortable, so designers offered fashionistas a variety of models to choose from, including classic straight cut midi and maxi lengths, loose and slightly flared models, down jackets with an asymmetrical cut, cocoon-shaped and cropped voluminous down jackets. Each product can be equipped with a hood, fur trim or pockets.
Particular attention should be paid to quilted options, when the placement of the stitching resembles wide stripes or a checkered pattern. The list of fashionable sheepskin coats includes both single-color models and a combination of different textures. As for fur products, bright short fur coats in the “Yeti” style are more relevant than ever. To complete the stylish look, stylists offer a variety of knitted hats with and without pompoms, hats, voluminous long scarves or openwork snoods. The most comfortable shoes during the icy season are considered to be high boots or models with a wide accordion top and fringed trim.
How to look stylish in winter: 10 things you need to forget about
It is not so important to know absolutely all fashion trends; it is enough to have an idea of anti-trends so as not to look ridiculous and tasteless. Here are the top anti-style things that you need to say goodbye to once and for all:
1. “Cute” (“funny”) hat
“Cheerful” hats with pompoms, ears, eyes and other “cute” decorative elements are appropriate for little girls, but not for grown-up girls, much less women.
2. Knitted fingerless gloves
They are also mittens; during the Middle Ages they were used for work on the street, and in the 19th century they gained popularity among ladies of high society and performed an exclusively aesthetic function. Nowadays, they have lost their former relevance (except that street vendors still appreciate the convenience of these under-gloves when counting out money in the cold). Therefore, it is better to choose warm mittens or gloves.
3. Ugg boots in the city
No matter how much you say that UGGs are meant to be worn at home on bare feet, as soon as it starts to get cold, they are right there. Having lost their shape, original color and presentation thanks to slush and reagents, they trample the streets year after year because they are supposed to be convenient and stylish. No!
4. White boots
Just as impractical as UGGs, white boots also stubbornly hold their ground. With or without heels, boots and dutton boots that don’t match either clothes or accessories, dirty after just five minutes of walking along the city streets - that’s all of them. Why such sacrifices when there are plenty of much more attractive models?
5. Vests with fur
A fur vest is a strange item, it looks like it’s for winter, but it doesn’t seem like it. When the cold creeps under your clothes and the wind blows into the holes where the sleeves should be, even the most beautiful fur vest in winter will not make sense. Some people manage to wear it over a leather jacket or down jacket to keep it warmer. And for what? To show off a mangy fur coat? She's not worth it.
6. Nude tights
How can a girl look stylish in winter? Apparently, some people think about putting nylon tights on blue legs and, risking their health, they bravely wear 40 den tights in the cold, complementing them with a miniskirt and a short fur coat. What they are trying to prove and to whom is unknown, but a more inappropriate and sometimes vulgar image is difficult to imagine.
Rule 4. Decorative cosmetics
When purchasing decorative cosmetics, pay attention to its durability. For example, waterproof mascara will be more convenient to use in frost and snow. Foundations and other skin products should be chosen half a shade lighter than in the summer. The optimal shades of blush for winter are soft pink and peach. All shades of gray and silver look very beautiful in winter makeup; in general, cold shades are winter favorites.

How to look stylish in winter and not freeze: useful tips
1. Thermal underwear is required.
If previously thermal underwear could only be found in the wardrobes of people involved in active sports in winter, now many people appreciate its convenience. Thin but warm long sleeves and leggings retain heat perfectly and allow you to look stylish without wearing a hundred clothes.
High-quality thermal underwear made from modern materials will be invisible under almost any clothing. To make thermal underwear a helper and not an enemy of style, it is enough to follow a few recommendations:
- Thermal tights or leggings should be worn under trousers and jeans;
- under dresses and skirts - shorts or a combination with a thermal protection function;
- We wear a T-shirt or top under a blouse, shirt or jumper;
- Thermal socks or knee socks will protect your feet from the cold even in boots with fish fur.
2. Basic winter wardrobe.
The so-called capsule from a set of basic things will eliminate unnecessary expenses and situations when the closet is full of clothes, but there is nothing to wear, since the individual elements do not fit together. How can a woman look stylish in winter without spending a lot of time and money? It is enough to choose a verified basic wardrobe:
- 3–5 high-quality plain turtlenecks and cardigans of different colors;
- a sweater is an absolute must-have in winter; It’s good if there are at least two models in your closet: a thin, tight-fitting jumper and a fashionable oversized pullover;
- if a woman’s lifestyle involves frequent business meetings, tweed and wool suits are a win-win option - an all-time classic;

- Dresses made of leather, suede or denim in combination with a turtleneck will help create a stylish look;

3. Lessons on layering.
When thinking about how to look stylish in winter 2020, you can’t go wrong if you choose a multi-layered look, consisting of several pieces of clothing worn one on top of the other. In winter, layering is especially important because it makes it possible to look stylish without becoming numb from the cold. However, you need to be careful: the wrong combination can turn anyone into a shapeless creature of indeterminate gender.
If you are new to combinations, it is better to give preference to things in the same color scheme. However, you don’t have to wear only black or beige. Combine things of different shades of the same color into one ensemble, then you won’t be afraid to mix textures and bright accessories.
Catchy colors and flashy prints should be used sparingly. It is permissible to add one bright thing to the image, which will become an accent and will not overshadow everything else.
4. We focus on accessories.
Of course, a dark down jacket is a universal thing. It is non-staining and fits into different images. This is what many brands are guided by when creating winter clothes. However, if you want to look stylish in winter, it’s hard to imagine a more dull outfit.
Therefore, non-standard, eye-catching accessories will come in handy. Hats, scarves, and gloves in bright colors will perfectly complement clothes in neutral shades and brighten up dark and cold winter days.
Is it warmer outside? Great! It's time to try on the image of a vamp and wear a coat with a wide-brimmed hat. It is impossible not to notice such a lady in the crowd.
Various brooches will help diversify your usual outfit. To prevent the decoration from getting lost against the background of outerwear, preference should be given to large and medium brooches. You can also transform an ordinary sweater or a simple dress. The choice is limited only by your imagination. Many people don’t even realize how much can be changed by just adding a couple of light touches to the image.
Fashionable clothes are only half the battle when it comes to looking stylish in winter. Without tasteful accessories, the look will be bland and unmemorable.
Fall street fashion for women
Every fashionista must have dresses in her closet, so we have put this particular wardrobe detail at the top of the list of trendy outfits for this fall. Among the fashionable variations are chic floor-length velvet models in rich burgundy or chocolate color, a loose shirt dress, a robe dress with a slightly high waist with a belt, or a knitted sheath dress. Lovers of knitted things can look for a knitted dress in the Greek style or with a neckline that reveals the shoulders.
A stylish proposal would be a sweater dress made of voluminous yarn, as well as elongated openwork models of sweaters or jumpers, which go very beautifully with pleated or leather skirts, various styles of trousers and jeans. Denim trousers, by the way, can have a classic straight cut, be tapered, cropped or in the “mom” style.
This year you can’t do without stylish loose-fitting suits or palazzo trousers. For young ladies who prefer a more business style, suits with a fitted jacket and tapered trousers will be a good solution. For fashionistas who choose clothes that do not restrict movement, the stylists offered an original combination of an oversized suit top and flared trousers, which can be perfectly replaced with sport-chic models.
An indispensable component of the autumn women's look this season are raincoats and these can be midi-length or just below the knee models, with a wide belt, pockets or a turn-down collar. A fashionable alternative to a raincoat in creating an urban outfit in the fall is a coat. As for shoes, the new “street style” items remain elegant stocking boots, sexy over the knee boots, graceful models of ankle boots with a slightly elongated toe, brutal lace-up boots with a textured tractor sole, platform shoes with a stable heel of an unusual shape and low boots in a cowboy style. .

Rule 6. Shoes
Girls in stiletto heels during icy conditions look very comical. In addition, such shoes are not very safe in winter. In winter, it is preferable to choose shoes made of genuine leather or suede with a stable heel and a fairly thick sole. It is good that the sole has patterns, and not just smooth.
For winter in harsher latitudes, felt boots and ugg boots are more relevant than ever. It is best to have several pairs of comfortable shoes in reserve, in case you get some wet, and the others should be at hand.
With a corrugated sole
Heels can be worn, but they should not be very high and stable. If you want originality, buy shoes trimmed with natural fur, decorated with rhinestones and embroidery.
Attention! When choosing shoes, remember that their size should be slightly larger than your summer shoes so that you can wear warm socks. In addition, your feet in winter shoes should be spacious, then they will freeze less.
