Layers are everywhere this season and especially in colder temperatures layers are a great way to help keep you warm while still looking stylish. You can create that layered look in a variety of ways, but there are certainly a few that stand out as our favorites at Vintage Fringe.
You can’t talk about dressing with layers without discussing wraps and cardigans. They truly are such versatile pieces that help to bridge the gap between warm and cold weather practically all year round. You can find wraps in all sorts of fabrics depending on how heavy you want them, but we suggest wearing a good cotton or jersey wrap that you can throw in a bag to have with you as the perfect option on a cold evening. These wraps can also be perfect for traveling if you need something light weight to carry on a plane or in your luggage. Wraps can be found in just about every color so there really is no excuse for not having at least one. Currently you’ll see them with flared or wide open fronts as a popular look. You’ll see wraps in cropped lengths which are great accents for dresses or other outfits. We also love long wraps to pair with leggings and boots which seem to be my go to look for the winter this year.

Another essential piece when dressing with layers are long sleeve shirts. Whether you like long sleeve tops or turtlenecks these are essential pieces if you are looking to layer up. Long sleeve tops are perfect if you are looking to wear them under wraps, cardigans or even as is so popular under other short sleeve tops. Turtlenecks are some of our favorite pieces to wear under certain sweaters and if you’ve seen the long sweater cardigans turtlenecks can be great basics to layer underneath. At Vintage Fringe we have a variety of different styles of turtlenecks from solid colors to turtlenecks that are truly statement pieces, but in any case you shouldn’t overlook these basic long sleeve tops when you are looking to find ways to layer up in colder weather.
Finally another great piece to layer with are light jackets. Our favorite jackets for layering include lightweight fleece or other jersey cotton. Consider the Cropped Double Breasted Jacket by Zooey which is a great lightweight jersey cotton that is light enough to wear in warmer weather and also warm enough for fall weather. We even wear it as a blazer during colder weather giving it added versatility.
Dressing with layers is really so much about function and versatility and giving you options depending on the weather, but despite all of these great reasons for layers you don’t have to sacrifice style. You can easily find a variety of tops, wraps and jackets that will help you create your own individual style with a few great pieces that really help give your wardrobe a variety of options in addition to helping you fit in with the latest trends.
