Don't Shy Away From a Winter Beret

  Beret bewilderment is real! We want to remedy that with tips on how to wear a beret + most importantly, how to style it.Berets have a fascinating history - worn by artists, black panthers, military personnel + fashionistas throughout the years.

Now that you know how to properly put one on, we can move on to a few chic beret looks.

  Prep your aesthetic up with a lesson from Audrey Hepburn + show off a beret with a fitted plaid skirt + sweater set. You’ll want to layer up, so add a blazer over it to stay warm while winter rolls in + offset all that marvelous plaid with a neutral solid. These gloomy gray months are the perfect time to show off a classic Parisian look that never disappoints or fades. Tie the waist of your herringbone tweed trench coat, lace up your vegan leather combat boots + slant your beret just the way you like it, for an evening out to see the Nutcracker. A beret with a black turtleneck has been a poetic cliche - however, you can carry this look in a new direction with pleated trousers + sleek, shiny loafers. You’ll be dressed to go out for drinks with your honey, peruse a local art exhibit, or grab a latte at your usual spot. Berets are avante-garde in the best way + will give sophistication to your cold weather attire.

You can bend the front to show off your bangs, or keep it down to block those occasional bright winter rays.
