The winter season is here, making it the perfect time to take a winter trip, enjoy the scenery, and dress in cozy, fashionable faux wrap dresses and colorful wool coats like your favorite movie characters. Below are five quick tips to help you pack for a stylish and cozy winter vacation.

Check the Weather Forecast

It may seem obvious to check the weather of your destination, but you’d be surprised how many savvy travelers forget this. You don’t want to be caught off guard by unusually cold or warm weather. Knowing what to expect can help you plan outfits more accordingly. For example, do you wear jeans and a sweater, or can you get by with a wrap dress plus size or regular, tights, and boots? Regardless of the weather report, always have at least one emergency outfit for those surprisingly warm or cold days.

Bring Layers

Layers are crucial to staying warm and comfortable in the winter. The weather may fluctuate throughout the day, and it’s much easier to put on and peel off layers than to be stuck in an uncomfortable outfit. Packing layers rather than bulky items that occupy tons of space in your suitcase is also more manageable. Want to save even more space? Wear your heaviest item on the plane to help keep your luggage under the weight limit, like your boots and coat.

Choose Versatile Neutral Colors

Packing neutral colors makes mixing, matching, and creating many different outfits easy. Add a few accent pieces that express your personal style to ensure you don’t overpack. For example, a regular, petite, or plus size sheath dress can be dressed up or down with a jacket or sweater and accessories, like a colorful scarf, so you can style one dress multiple ways throughout your trip.

Don’t Forget the Dresses

What is a winter vacation without a beautiful dress to wear while sightseeing, catching a show, or dining out? There are so many dress options for winter, like a floor-length faux wrap dress that will keep you incredibly comfy and sophisticated. Or, you can fall in love with a simple but elegant cardigan dress made from stretch-knit that glides over your body while also providing additional coverage. Another excellent choice for a winter-themed dress is a plaid sheath dress made with a stretch sweater knit for a polished look that will keep you cozy and comfortable all day.

Keep Your Feet Covered

Rather than reaching for ballet flats or strappy heels, go with boots this winter. It’s a sneaky yet stylish way to shield your legs from the harsh wind. You'll get more coverage if you opt for a longer-length dress or add tights. Incorporating warm accessories to your outfits, like scarves, hats, and gloves, is an easy way to add a pop of color to your dresses while keeping you cozy.
