5 Winter Going-Out Looks That Are Actually Warm (But Still Look Cool)
What does one wear when going out during the wintertime? The amount of mental real estate I've devoted to answering this question is borderline embarrassing. As a Michigan native who enjoys the whole spectacle of "going out," I'm not exaggerating when I say that I've spent hours thinking about this specific sartorial dilemma.
The challenge is in finding that elusive balance between legitimate warmth and just enough drama—whether in the form of strappy heels and leather pants or a prairie dress and sneakers. Considering that the excitement of "going out" is in many ways predicated on dressing outside of your standard uniform, I'd argue that the drama factor is important. There's a reason why people have an entirely separate wardrobe dedicated to this activity.
Below, I present you with the fruits of my years-long outfit analysis. These five outfit formulas and their many iterations are equal parts practical and exciting—a hallmark of any good going out ensemble in my book.
The pants are the star of this particular winter outfit formula. Rather than wearing your standard denim, bring your look to life with vibrant fabrics and funky patterns. Opt for a pair of red leather pants à la Jeanette Madsen, or go for an animal print like snakeskin or leopard. This second formulation is practical in more ways than one. Rather than tossing your warm-weather dresses aside until spring, take notes from Maria Bernad and pair them with a chunky knit sweater and ankle boots. For added layers, wear a warm turtleneck and tights underneath the dress, in addition to a sweater and coat on top. This combination works with midi dresses as well. While this particular outfit combination may be better suited to the autumn months, the dress and boot combo is the quintessential "going out" outfit. To transition this look to winter, add warm tights and a second winter coat layered over the blazer. If you rarely deviate from the standard jeans-and-a-t-shirt outfit combo no matter what the occasion, this one's for you. Simply switch out your turtleneck or long-sleeve shirt for it's sheer counterpart and never look back—the slightly see-through fabric effectively takes this classic look from day to night.The best thing about this season's pantsuit trend? It's warm—we recommend taking full advantage of it this winter. To make this look going out-worthy, pair your favorite set with a red lip, bold jewelry, and a bra that's meant to be seen.Next up: 28 perfect ways to wear white this winter.
If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
