Love it or hate it, it’s the time of year when words like “wind chill” (ugh) and “Polar Vortex” (double ugh) are being thrown around left and right. I won’t pretend I like it, you know me better than that, but I do try my best to embrace it by dressing in my coziest layers. One of my go-tos this time of year is my plaid flannel shirt, that’s thin enough to layer but thick enough to keep me warm even on its own.
I typically associate flannel shirts with more casual looks (90s grunge anyone?) but I like to dress up my flannel as well. With a bright red skirt, pearls, and boots, my plaid flannel skirt takes a walk on the dressier side.

For a more casual look, I layered my plaid flannel shirt with this cozy new down vest, jeans, and ankle boots. Flannel AND a down vest? Now I’m ready to take on the cold! Not that I’d mind a little warm up.
