I've never been as warm whilst still feeling put together this season.
There’s been no shortage of gorgeous long coats this season, with hundreds of students rocking the trench coat trend or ‘shuck-on’ wool overcoats. They’re the perfect staple for keeping your whole body just that little bit warmer, and can also act as a great layer if you still want to keep wearing skirts and tights for a while longer. I’ve seen so many amazing outfits pairing a long coat with a little black skirt and long black boots – it’s giving office core in the best way. Fur coats are back too – something I’ve bought into this year, and I can honestly say I’ve never been as warm whilst still feeling put together this season.
Hats have made a big comeback too, with so many boys embracing the half-beanie – still on trend but keeping your head protected. Even though it’s more of a ‘skater-boy’ fashion, you can pair them with pretty much any outfit and it’ll add a little something extra to your style. Many girls have also been leaning into the fluffy hat resurgence, and every time I see someone wearing one, I’m so jealous that I don’t have one! Definitely a piece to invest in at some point, I think.
Although the 'skinny scarf' trend seems to divide most students, it's always good to have one nestled in your bag.
Speaking of headgear, the fluffy hood trend that was so big last winter has still been popping up in and around the Newcastle circles. Although it might not be for everyone, if it’s just not cold enough one day for you to want to throw on a hoodie and a hooded puffer, a hood can be a great thing to have in your bag ready to throw on for the walk home from the library.
The same goes for a little scarf – although the ‘skinny scarf’ trend seems to divide most students, it’s always good to have one nestled in your bag, just in case you catch a chill when heading around campus. So keep rocking those winter looks, everyone, and keep up Newcastle’s reputation for having some of the best-dressed students around!
