How do you ladies stay feminine in the winter?

Feminine doesn't mean "show lots of skin." Winter is a great time to wear attractive clothes. The thought of taking off lots of clothes can be as sexy as seeing someone wearing very little. Just make sure attractiveness is as important as warmth when buying. Don't go for the typical formless drab parka or ski coat. Find something ladylike. Maybe get one of those big fur Russian hats rather than a ski hat, and the like. Boots can be very sexy as can a warm fuzzy sweater. It's too bad fur coats are now evil since they were sexy as hell. And of course, wear sexy underwear and it will come through in your attitude despite what you're wearing over it :)

Right now I live in FL so my winter is 75*. My input here is useless since I can pull off shorts in December lol. Here is something you may find useful

Fitted coats are a good option. I love my peacoat; it was the warmest thing I have. I also keep up on fleece lined leggings and tight jeans that I can stuff into my boots. Even though I don't own any, I also love the sweater dresses. Essentially, form fitting and made out of warm material is good.

But if you seriously need the practical clothes for things other than just going out, by all means, wear them.

Wool, shearling and vintage fur. Used fur from thrift shops, or flea markets are totally worth it for warmth. Fleece lined leggings are a godsend.

For snow play and such I just wear a "totally flattering" one piece snow suit and boots with great grip, because an active, happy, playful woman is an attractive one.

Great suggestions already offered. Gonna reaffirm /u/eatplaycrush, here.

I'm from Winnipeg, statistically the coldest city in Canada. I own a lot of over the knee and thigh high socks. Wearing them over tights adds an extra layer of warmth and is form fitting with school girl appeal. Plus, pretty colours and patterns.

Leggings and fitted sweater dresses, legwarmers around the house, cute boots, skirts and tights, scarves, leather gloves, fit and flare wool coats... I could go on. I'd recommend stopping by /r/femalefashionadvice as well, there's loads of good stuff there.

I don't find it hard to stay feminine in the winter. I wear cute coats that are warm but have a distinct waist, like a wool peacoat or a puffy coat with a belt. Scarfs are super cute and warm, there are plenty of cute hats and gloves to be found.

My winter uniform is either skinny jeans and a form fitting knit sweater with booties/boots or a dress with a cardigan with knit tights and boots. I often leave my scarf on all day for a warm accessory. Hair done, makeup on.

What exactly are you having trouble with?

We are too poor for me to afford a new winter coat, so I have a hand-me-down from my little sister that's ugly and puffy. Not much I can do about that. Lucky for me hubby loves sweater dresses. I found some fleece-lined leggings to keep my legs toasty and wear boots with a sweater dress when I'm trying to look nice and we're going out. We don't go out in the cold much, though, so I frequently dress up in less warm clothes around the house. See also: tight pants. My butt is my best asset besides my face, so no matter what I always try to show that off if my husband is going to be around. I don't do the whole jeggings thing, but I have various stretchy pants that hug my curves, and then I can pile on more layers on top without looking like a giant marshmallow.

One more thing! This may be too much for the more top-heavy ladies, but for the smaller chested, sweaters can really make us look even smaller up top. I have several sweaters that look cute with a thick belt at my waist to synch them up since heavier sweaters don't tend to hug the curves well. It shows off my small waist and gives my boobs a fighting chance of being noticed.

Skinny jeans, a tight sweater, and boots. If it's not too terribly cold or I don't have to be outside for long, a sweater dress with tights and boots. Get a nicely fitted wool peacoat that has a feminine shape to it (fitted chest, nips in at waist, slight flare out at hips). Layering does wonders. I like under armour brand if you can afford it, that stuff is a miracle in cold weather.

A general tip, buy as much natural fiber clothing as you can afford. Wool is much warmer than polyester or rayon and it will last longer.

Leggings are my go to, I typically wear a lot of knee-high boots as well so I can wear my awesome snowboarding knee-high socks underneath and over my leggings for extra warmth. Scarves always. Gloves. Nice fitted warm coat. Layered tops like a tank then a blouse over it or something. This is my typical day.

As a man, leggings/tights are sexy as hell, especially combined with skirts/boots/heels.

If you can manage to stay warm that is, I know when it gets down to those really frigid temps it can be very tough :/

Layers are great for styling in my opinion. I think a great jacket makes all the difference. I just recently purchased a Canada goose (very expensive but totally worth it!) first off, the jacket will last me years, it's super warm and effective in super cold climates and is also water proof so you can't go wrong. It also makes me feel like a million bucks because it has a great shape that makes me feel like a fahsionista, haha this is one thing that makes me feel feminine in the icy winter months.

I also think investing in scarves with vibrant patterns or colors helps, I used to never "accessorize" my winter wear but I've found recently that there are a lot of very cute winter accessory's that make wearing 30 pounds of clothing a little bit less...monotonous.

As for the rest of the cloths you can layer up on nice cardigans that always seem to pull an outfit together. Good luck!

Get one of those cute 1940s-style long coats. I have a gorgeous double-breasted tan one from Witchery than I've had since I was 14 and it still fits. Wear it with a knee-length skirt, thick stockings and boots. get one of those fur hats like they wear in Russia or knit or crochet a nice beanie for yourself.

I live in the north of england and it is COLD, wet, rain like we've never had before and the highest winds ever recorded.

I would usually wear leggings with knee high socks and wellies, for a cute dog walking in the cold look, with a short puffy jacket but this weather is so bad I have to dress like a total man or I will cry with how cold it is.

So im relying on making sure my indoor look underneath the layers is cute and cosy and my hair and make up are weather proof. Which Im not ashamed to say involves spraying my face with hair spray!
