A trend you can actually wear is so appealing. After all, what’s better than something that’s both stylish and practical? As we layer up in our large puffer coats and pile on the warm accessories, there’s one classic winter trend not to overlook: leather gloves.
Though you might have initially associated gloves with the prim-and-proper iconic styles of decades past, the cold-weather accessory is officially back. Whether you live in an area with regular snowstorms or you’re taking a vacation to a place with them, a pair of leather gloves for women is sure to dress up any outfit you wear this season.
Ready to add a pair to your wardrobe? Shop our favorite gloves on the market and protect your hands from getting too cold this season. Trust us—you won’t regret it.
Sometimes, all your outfit needs is a finishing touch, and in the winter, that is most definitely the truth. With all of the layers and of course the colder weather, the final pieces that you pile up on tend to be heaven-sent. If you just spent a ton of money on your winter wardrobe, don’t feel like you have to splurge on the little things. I’ve found plenty of finishing touches at the perfect price point.
Winter is my favorite season for accessories, and many of them happen to be under $30, so expect to see them in this roundup. I’m also still buying into wardrobe staples that are easy to layer up on and wide-leg pants. Below, find the affordable items that will finish out your winter wardrobe.
If you scroll through Who What Wear on any given day, you’d most likely glean that we love French fashion. One might assume that our obsession is rooted in the release of the third season of Netflix’s breakout show Emily in Paris, starring our recent cover star Lily Collins. But in truth, we were about French fashion long before it became a part of the broader zeitgeist. From searching Paris’s runways for trends to scouring our feeds for outfit inspiration, we can’t get enough of everything French adjacent.
So it’s only natural that we turned to them again when thinking about ways to make winter outfits feel more luxurious. After much research, we concluded that only one winter-ready accessory is the key to replicating that je ne sais quoi that’s innate to French women: cashmere scarves. Though it may seem trivial, this accessory can make any outfit look more elegant and make any person (no matter where they live) feel chic.
In an effort to prove the power of this piece, we found examples of how French women are wearing this luxurious winter accessory. Plus, we rounded up the 30 best cashmere scarves across the internet based on price point, sustainability, and wearability. Keep scrolling to see how this plush accessory plays a significant part in Parisian fashion…
Let’s face it: Our smartphones have become our most important accessory. Whether you’re on board with this fact or not, how we accessorize them via phone cases has become another way for us to complete an outfit, as we do with our choice in shoes, bags, and jewelry. And the easiest (and usually the least expensive) way to give any look a designer upgrade is by opting for a case from one of our favorite luxury labels. While there are plenty of logo-emblazoned phone cases out there, some of today’s designs really lean into our need to be connected at all times. Chains and straps allow us to literally wear our phones like a purse or wristlet rather than play Tetris to try and fit them into our mini bags or spend forever trying to fish them out of our oversize totes. Even classic snap-on cases offer much more than a simple logo—think fun textures and materials, 3D details, and functional pockets for credit cards. Ahead, we rounded up 26 of today’s must-have designer phone cases, available at a range of price points. Don’t worry; they don’t all cost an arm and a leg. Keep scrolling to check out the very best from today’s luxury favorites, including Gucci, Prada, Bottega Veneta, and many more.

Growing up, I was never a fan of gloves. I thought they got in the way, made it impossible to open doors, and were not worth my time. It wasn’t until this year that I gained a newfound adoration for gloves. This accessory is so much more than just a functional piece of winter clothing and is a place to express your style. Gloves can make a simple look incredibly chic. Even inexpensive black gloves still look luxe. Personally, I think it’s time we all start giving gloves the credit they deserve.
The beauty of gloves is that they come in all different fabrics. You’ll find gloves in leather, suede, shearling, and the list goes on. We can’t say the same for winter hats and scarves, can we? Plus, gloves can act as a statement piece when accented with sparkles, studs, or even faux fur. Essentially, what I’m trying to say is that there is a glove out there that is a fit for every style and personality. With that in mind, I’ve taken a look at dozens of gloves with the goal of seeking out the very best. I’ve put together a list of every glove worth your time this season. With options from under $10 to over $100, take a look at which gloves you should add to your shopping cart right now.
If there’s one thing I own a lot of, it’s basic tops. Whether it’s white tees or black tank tops, they’re the backbone of most of my outfits, as I pair them with practically everything from midi skirts to high-waisted jeans and relaxed trousers. But what really takes my basic tops to another level are the accessories I wear with them, like chic belts and pearl chains.
The right accessories can make the simplest basics look 10 times more elevated and expensive. The best part is that these items don’t need to cost a fortune, especially if you know the right places to look. A bonus tip is that these timeless accessories can also help you easily transition your favorite staples from the office to the weekend and vice versa. Below, I want to share some of my favorite pieces that will make your basic tops look pricey and chic and that are altogether on-trend.
In a time where many of us are leaning towards more basic and comfortable dressing, accessories are key. Whether it’s a fun necklace or a loud pair of socks, any touch of pizazz to an outfit is very much appreciated right now. While I could talk about all kinds of accessories for a very long time (trust me, I can), today’s topic of discussion is one of my favorites—hats. And as winter is slowly approaching, there are some styles that have carried their way over from the warmer months and some that have been reinvented for the new season ahead.
This wouldn’t be a Who What Wear story if we didn’t inform of you the latest trends you’ll be seeing this season, so ahead you’ll find 4 hat styles that we’re adding to our wardrobes right now, and we even shopped them out for you so you can add a few to your collection. Keep scrolling to find your new go-to winter accessory.
Anyone who lives in a cold climate has likely rolled out of bed on a frigid winter day and felt an overwhelming sense of either excitement or dread. Those first few weeks of cold weather can qualify as exciting because you finally get to wear that chunky sweater without sweating, and you can pull your beloved lug-sole boots out of storage. On the other hand, there comes the point mid-winter when even the most fashionable people can fall into a winter-dressing slump—the oversized puffer coats, excessive layering, and lack of sunlight past 5 p.m. begin to get to you. In those moments, you need to have an arsenal of accessories to bring back some of the excitement around winter dressing. What’s better for that purpose than a pair of leather gloves?
Hear me out on this: While most think of this as a staple that’s just for maintaining warmth, it’s actually the easy way to elevate any winter outfit. And to prove that point, I’ve done extensive image research to show how leather gloves are not only trending, but through styling, they’ve surpassed being a “boring” staple and moved into being a statement accessory. Keep reading to see how to style leather gloves to add a luxurious twist to all your winter outfits.
The ‘80s are calling in a big way as of late when it comes to fashion. Not only do we have structured-shoulder blazers, puff-sleeved dresses, pleated trousers, and more throwbacks trending, but I am also now seeing outfits pop up with leg warmers. While the cheap accessory is destined to be polarizing, I can’t say I am surprised about the resurgence of the balletcore aesthetic over the past year. The new trend seems to be strongest among the Gen Z crowd, but I have also seen stylish millennials reaching for a pair.
What’s been most interesting is being able to see how different fashion people style the cozy accessory. On one hand, you have whimsical takes that include cute dresses and fun coats. Then, there are more athletic routes, where the leg warmer is incorporated into a workout look alongside leggings and sneakers. Beyond that, there are fashion-forward ensembles, unexpected party outfits, and more that feature a pair. Keep scrolling to see six leg-warmer outfit ideas, plus how to get each look.
It’s officially time to start holiday outfit planning and getting ready to put your best foot forward — literally.
One of the best parts of the season is getting together with friends and loved ones. Knowing that those moments will live forever in photos, you want to look your best. Yes, the clothes are important, but so are the shoes — after all, the pair you wear determines how confidently you carry yourself when walking into a room.
When it comes to holiday party shoes, you want to find footwear that fits well into your wardrobe, brings out your style, is comfortable enough to wear to a variety of functions and, of course, feels festive.
To make it easier, we found the best, on-trend shoes to wear to potlucks, gift exchanges, family dinners and new-year gatherings, from velvet heels to Mary Jane platforms. Shop them all below.
There’s something about owning a designer item that just feels so special. Whether simple and minimalist or totally out-there, they’re pieces we hold dear and will wear for seasons, even years, to come. However, “designer” doesn’t always have to equate to a hefty price tag—take smaller accessories like wallets and phone cases, for example. The small designer item we’re currently eyeing? AirPod cases.
Practical and functional, AirPod cases not only help protect our AirPods from the elements, but they also make them way easier to keep track of, especially when they include a convenient bag clip or shoulder strap for easy access. Lucky for us, many of our favorite labels have put out their own spin on the AirPod case, giving one of our most beloved tech accessories a fashionable twist.
We scrolled through our favorite sites to find the best designer AirPod cases to shop in 2022, from Gucci to Balenciaga and everything in between. Keep reading to check out our picks.
When the cold winds roll in and snow comes down, there are few better feelings than wrapping yourself in something warm from head-to-toe: lined boots and thick socks to keep feet warm, cute mittens to protect your hands (while still easily accessing your phone), dramatically chunky sweaters.
Winter is already a gray time, so I like using fashion as a tool for bringing in more joyfulness and color — an extension of dopamine dressing, if you will. There’s an air of exuberance right now, with that post-lockdown feeling and being “back outside,” and that extends to our cozy-season essentials.
Ahead, we’ve rounded up some of the most fun cozy items money can buy, from Ugg mules to shearling scrunchies to Gigi Hadid-approved cardigans. Happy shopping!
Guest in Residence Cabin Cardigan, $645, available here (sizes XS-XXL)

The holidays are just around the corner, and I couldn’t be more delighted. It feels like the first “normal” holiday season in years, and I think this one is going to be special. And while I’m a firm avoider of throw-away, kitschy presents, the opportunity for forever pieces is always one that excites me. A timeless handbag, a leather wallet, and cashmere gloves are pieces made to last and therefore make the top of my wish list.
For a long time, Mulberry has been a go-to for these very special pieces. The British luxury lifestyle brand is so synonymous with classic accessories that when you see someone sporting a Mulberry handbag, scarf, or purse and ask them about it, they’ll often tell you it was originally their mom’s. Bottom line: Mulberry has a knack for creating accessories that are passed down from generation to generation.
This year, Mulberry’s gifting selection has more than just the classics. There are scarves that can be personalized, new leather editions in vibrant colorways and prints, recent collections (including the mini-bag series), and party-ready metallics that you’re likely to see on New Year’s Eve.

As a busy New Yorker, Katie Holmes is a pro at putting together casual, comfortable outfits that look great with sneakers. And in the late fall and winter, it’s important to also protect yourself from the chill while walking around the city. This week, she showed how it’s done with her chic, low-key outfit.
Holmes paired a long, oversized black coat with a white T-shirt, baggy jeans, sneakers, and the accessory that’s the subject of this piece: a camel scarf. We’d waxed poetic time and time again about the expensive-looking touch the color camel has, and that never changes. It retains its popularity for a reason, and the beauty of a cozy scarf is that it adds that luxe look to even the most casual winter outfits on a daily basis. Yes, you can get away with wearing the same camel scarf daily and no one will bat an eye. This makes it a great investment, but you needn’t even spend a lot of money on one.
Holmes’ scarf is by TOTEME, which makes some of the best camel scarves around, and even hers comes in at a very reasonable $220 for an item that you may hold onto forever. Scroll to shop hers and a handful of other camel scarves that are worth every penny.
It’s always a surprise when previously forgotten-about items return to the spotlight, and this winter, six such jewelry pieces are having a sort of renaissance. Unlike clothes and shoes, my jewelry collection tends to stay pretty constant from season to season and year to year. Of course, it goes through its own phases, but on the whole, the turnover is much slower than anything I keep on a hanger or folded into a dresser drawer. For that reason, if I phase out a jewelry trend from my arsenal, I usually expect it to stay that way. Winter 2022 has other plans, though.
Across the runways, I spotted six major winter jewelry trends that are giving me a strong case of déjà vu. I definitely dabbled in each of these years ago and had since banished them from my jewelry box—or so I thought. Sure enough, all signs are pointing to their grand return to style. For instance, I’m typically a gold girl all the way, and any other metals pretty much dwindled from my view, but a new wave of sculptural silver pieces stands to change my staunch stance. For a complete look into this season’s trending accoutrements, see the six reemerging themes that just might surprise you (as they did for me).
Ever since I can remember, I’ve been a bag lady. Family members can recount how I’d often carry my mini bag around as a toddler. It was an early indication of a lifelong passion for scouring resale sites, sales, and digital racks in search of the perfect purse. Of course, like all bag lovers, I’ll admit to maybe owning too many, but I won’t ever succumb to the belief that this accessory is trivial. For collectors, we know that a bag can make or break an outfit. So even if we all delight in following new trends or donning a rhinestone-adorned version, we know, at the end of the day, we must have at least one basic bag that can go with everything.
What that staple handbag looks like depends on our personal preferences, but it’s safe to say there is one color that’s agreed upon as a must-have: black. After all, this is the fashion color. It’s a must-have for every other accessory, so why wouldn’t it be for bags too? It’s a piece that can pull together any look and be worn anytime or anywhere. But to say that all black bags are created equal would be a lie. As a picky shopper, I know there can be bland black bags, and there can be stylish ones. You just have to do some digging.
In that vein, I’ve scoured the internet to find the 42 best black handbags at every price point. From special hardware and materials to shapes and sizes, the details of each bag prove that this staple is far from boring.
The holiday season is officially here, so get started on your gift shopping ahead with some of the best early Amazon Black Friday deals. Figuring out where to begin in Amazon’s curated holiday market can be daunting, but we’re here to help you discover gifts for everyone on your list.

Every fall marks the return of beloved staples (like knee-high boots, sweater dresses, or leather jackets), but it also brings in the possibility of adopting something “new.” Of course, when it comes to trends, there’s nothing that’s ever entirely original—inspiration is constantly drawn from the past. As runway collections have tapped nostalgia more and more, we’ve witnessed formerly “dated” trends be transformed into something that feels brand new.
Nothing shows that more than the return of furry accessories. Fur accessories have always waned in and out of style as humans have worn them for centuries. However, they first gained notoriety in the fashion world in the 1960s, thanks to designers like Karl Lagerfield coining the term “fun fur” when working at Fendi. But the ’90s marked an even more significant shift in the popularity of fur, as fabric production innovations allowed for the creation of faux fur, making the fabric more animal-friendly and affordable. The result was the creation of a slew of furry accessories that managed to define the decade and continue to do so to this day.
We can see furry accessories continued presence in the fashion zeitgeist, most recently in fall/winter 2022 collections. From Kim Jones at Fendi to Donatella at Versace, we saw no shortage of designers taking this ’90s-inspired accessory and reenvisioning it in a way that could make even the most forward-thinking fashionphiles feel a flicker of nostalgia.
So, without further ado, here are the three ways this trend reemerged on the runway, along with the best furry accessories to shop for right now.
Normally, when you think of winter fashion, handbags aren’t the first things that come to mind. Boots, outerwear, and dangerously soft accessories maybe. But purses? Not so much. Nonetheless, many of us will carry one or more every single day of the season, just as we all in the other three. And while some people might be okay with ignoring our handbags from now until spring, I’m not, and neither are my fellow editors.
In an effort to draw some attention toward handbags this winter, I called on said editors to find out which styles they’re planning to let hibernate throughout the colder months and which will become their new go-tos. And just as I suspected, they each had plenty to say. See? I’m not the only one ready to rally behind the handbag space during its off season.
Keep scrolling for the inside scoop on all the winter handbag trends Who What Wear editors are passing on right now and which ones they’ll be carrying instead.
