The Winter Accessory Trend You Need to Shop Right Now
’Tis the season for being warm and cozy. Whether you’re curling up by the fire with a good book or dressing up for various holiday gatherings, the time has come to scour the market for winter accessories that allow you to keep warm and look stylish while doing so. And what better way to get your comfort on than quite literally decking yourself out in shearling? The soft, durable, hypoallergenic, and warm-yet-breathable material is perfect for wearing inside or—if you absolutely must leave the house—outside to protect against the elements in a chic way. Luxury brands seem to agree: Everyone from Celine to Gianvito Rossi and Chanel is dropping shearling styles ideal for your cold-weather wardrobe.
As with any trend or material, accessories are a great trial run to test the waters before going all in with ready-to-wear. Take, for instance, a pair of shearling earmuffs that won’t tamper with your updo, or a handbag that adds an element of intrigue to your ensemble yet still pairs well with pretty much every sweater you own. Or maybe you’re in the market for a new pair of slippers that are easy to kick on and off when you can’t be bothered to do much else. With that in mind, we rounded up the best shearling accessories to shop now while the temps are low. Be warned, though: Once you experience the soft hug of a shearling Miu Miu mitten or a Jimmy Choo boot, it’ll be hard to take off.
