When it comes to dressing up for the fall and winter season, layering is indeed your best friend. When you are able to master the art of layering, you can say goodbye to your days of looking like a big ball of sweater.

We know that it can be quite difficult to look stylish when you are wearing too much fabric to keep yourself as warm as possible. The only way to avoid that is to play with layers. But sometimes, there is more to layering than it seems. For your information, layering is more than just piling one piece of clothing on top of another. There is actually a bit of art behind it and that is what we are going to talk about today. Here are some tips on how to layer your clothes in the most stylish way possible:

Mix classy with edgy.

Many people think that they should just stick with one genre when layering. You know, like layering boring over boring. But if you want to be the master of layering, we recommend that you think out of the box and layer two unexpected things. If you are going to the office, you will surely wear an office suit or pantsuit. Well, you can prepare for the cold weather by wearing a leather jacket over it. Yes, that would be unexpected but the combination of texture and color will surely catch everyone off guard.. in a nice way, of course! To make the most out of your look, we recommend that you pair it with colorful accessories.

Wear two dresses.

Layering us not limited to wearing blazers on top of dresses—it may also mean wearing one dress over the other too! For a fresh take on layering, we recommend that you layer two of your dresses. You can try wearing a fitted dress over a longer shirt dress to make it look more structured. This is the perfect tip for those days when you want to wear a dress but the coldness keeps you from doing so.

Play with crop tops.

Many people think that crop tops are just for the summer season. Well, you will be surprised to know that you can use it for spring and winter layering too! Instead of burying your crop tops in your closet, we recommend that you layer it on top of your sheer or button down top. For extra coverage, you can pair it with pants, trousers or maxi skirts. This simple layering tip will make your torso look more elongated and will eventually make you look taller.

Truly, knowing how to layer can help update your winter and fall outfits and looks.
