Tuesday Ten: January Style Tips
Hey guys! It’s Alex from Team LC and today we’re sharing our favorite blog of the month—the breakdown of the best style tips and tricks to try! Check out the trends and looks we’re loving and be sure to tell us what your favorites are too…
1. Wear a white coat. The fashion doctor is in! We love how a bright coat instantly brightens up a drab cold-weather ensemble.
2. Get knitted. Mix your favorite chunky knits with slim-fitting pieces such as a slinky pencil skirt or edgy leggings.
3. Add some tweed, please! A chic tweed jacket is the perfect ladylike contrast to cuffed boyfriend jeans. This look can be worn anywhere from the (casual) workplace to the weekend. Love!
4. Put on some patent. Add instant polish to your layered winter look by finishing off your outfit with a pair of fancy patent leather flats à la A Cup of Joe.
5. Make metallic work for you. We adore how Blair of Atlantic-Pacific styled metallic pants into her look. When wearing metallic, just be sure to keep the rest of your look understated and simple.
6. Add a touch of leopard. Mixing in just a splash of leopard print to your winter wardrobe can instantly update it and make it feel like new. If you’re wary of this sassy statement-making print, try starting with printed shoes like The Glamourai did in this photo.
7. Surprise your scarf by wearing it in an unconventional way, like around your waist! We love how this can add an instant pop of color and some interest to an otherwise basic ensemble.
8. Embrace oxblood. If you’ve read Anna’s Color Report, then you might already know that oxblood (an almost burgundy hue) is The Color this winter. Dabble with the trend by sporting oxblood accessories, like a purse or shoes. Instant chic!
9. Try a collar necklace. We all know there’s a collar craze happening so why not bring it to a whole new level by wearing a collar necklace?
10. Be bright! Just because it’s dark out doesn’t mean your outfits have to follow suit. We love how this model styled a bright pink coat with an emerald green fedora. Lovely and unexpected!
Which style idea are you going to try this month?

Been on the hunt for a perfect white coat all season long, but still haven't found the perfect one!
I love scarves and especially BRIGHT colored ones to liven up a gloomy day.
Thanks all these tips were great!

I love these tips for January. I'm so obsessed with tweed, collar necklaces, and leopard right now. I also uploaded a picture to be featured for Chic of the Week here: http://laurenconrad.com/user/photo/3456401 featuring denim, chambray, and a maxi skirt for a layered look.

@melody brown: These are not "impossibly thin" people. At least, I don't think so. I get where you are coming from by asking to simply show a broader range of sizes, but it's not like these are styling tips directed at thinner women. It's mostly shoes, colored accessories and necklaces. Any sized woman can incorporate these into their daily look. I'm sorry if I am offensive, I just found it offensive that you say they are "impossibly thin" when for all you know, they worked really hard to acheive their ideal body type. I'm 5'6", 200 lbs., so I'm a big girl, but I don't see someone that is a size 2 and think that's impossible. Just like getting to 200 lbs. wasn't impossible and I thought I'd never get to this point. (actually, my highest was 220, but that's beside the point).

So many great trends! I love oxblood, leopard and prints. The white coat is also very beautiful.

Love these ideas! I tried two of these trends in a recent look. My new favorite knit sweater embellished with sequin elbow patches paired with oxblood jeans.
Here's the link to my photo in my album!
