4. Oversized sweaters: An oversized sweater is a great way to stay comfy but still look fashionable this winter. This One Button Cardigan Sweater from Victoria’s Secret retails for $79.50.

5. Leggings: They’re a great thing. Let’s face it ladies, they’re much more comfortable than pants. But that’s just it—they’re not pants! Pair them under a dress or oversized sweater and you’ve got a great winter ensemble. Look for thicker fabrics like cotton as opposed to a thinner, tight-style stocking that will help keep you warm. Try a pair of these fun velvet ones from H&M for only $17.95 for a dressier holiday look. Photo: www.hm.com
Men
1. Cold weather accessories: Dudes get cold too! So don’t be afraid to throw on a scarf, hat or pair of gloves when trekking across campus this winter. This fun camouflage print lambswool scarf from Ralph Lauren will help you stay warm in a manly yet fashionable way. Retail $58. Photo: www.ralphlauren.com
2. Festive pants: Try out something other than the standard jeans or khakis this winter. These satin men’s pants from H&M will be great for holiday parties or going out for date night. And at only $29.95, you can afford to give them a try! Available in-store and online in green and black. Photo: www.hm.com
3. Flannel: Layering is in, fellas! Mix this must-have flannel shirt with a number of items like a neutral sweater, military jacket or throw a graphic tee underneath and you’ve got yourself an effortless but fashionable winter look. This J.Crew herringbone plaid flannel comes in a few different colors including chili powder (seen here) and retails for $79.50. Photo: www.jcrew.com
4. The not-so-ugly holiday sweater: A print sweater is a definite go-to this holiday season. With a pair of jeans, it’s a great look for class. Throw a collared shirt underneath and pair with chinos or dressier pants and you have a great party ensemble!
