When temperatures drop to the point where it gets hard to function, trends are likely the last thing you want to prioritize. Instead, turn to outfit ideas you know are always in style. Between all the layering and puffy outerwear you're required to wear, we don't blame you for reading that last sentence and still not knowing where to start. That's where we come in.
