It’s that time of the year when we start layering like onions — because, let’s be honest, as the temperature drops, we must bid farewell to our summer-y dresses and crop tops, and get ready for a wardrobe update. The crispy winter air calls for the addition of some trendy staples that not only help you battle the cold, but also make your wardrobe as hot as cocoa.
From snug knits that feel like a warm hug to statement accessories, Kanupriya, designer at Latin Quarters, shares the winter must-have clothing items that will keep you both warm and fashionable.
Turtleneck sweaters are a timeless piece, which scream comfort and style. The appeal of a sleek black turtleneck sweater made popular by none other than Apple founder Steve Jobs, is a crucial piece of layering, which can be paired with almost anything. From a sleek coat to a blazer, there is nothing quite that doesn’t go well with a turtleneck sweater. To add some flair, accessorise it with a dainty black bag and golden jewellery.
Leather details are making a strong statement this winter. Incorporate leather into your wardrobe with jackets, pants, or even accessories like gloves and boots. The combination of edgy leather and cosy fabrics creates a perfect balance for a winter-ready look. You can also experiment with the leather-on-leather trend, giving any outfit a chic touch.
Boots are a classic winter staple that never go out of style. From chic knee-high boots to sassy ankle boots, there is a boot for every mood. You can also opt for different prints and unique heel designs. Paired with skirts, dresses or jeans, boots are the epitome of winter fashion.

A statement scarf is a winter essential that can instantly transform your look. Whether it’s a chunky knit scarf, a faux fur stole, or a stylish plaid pattern, the right scarf adds both warmth and flair to your outfit. Don’t be afraid to experiment with textures and patterns to make a fashion statement.
Puffer jackets are not just about functionality; they’re the trendiest piece of winter clothing. Opt for stylish puffer jackets with unique quilting patterns and vibrant colours. These jackets not only provide insulation against the cold but also elevate your winter ensemble with a touch of street style.
