The most beautiful retro looks for January (and the rest of winter)

January can be such an ambivalent month. One day brings deep winter weather with snowstorms and freezing cold, while the next feels like spring is just around the corner. Add to that the fact that the holiday season is definitively over by Epiphany, and I can no longer bear the sight of red and gold. While I still have some beautiful red pieces in my wardrobe that I wear in January, I find myself increasingly drawn to shades of pink and rose. 😉 In this blog post, I’m sharing a wide selection of January-friendly outfits to inspire you. From retro coats and cozy dresses to chic skirt-and-sweater combos, there’s something for everyone!

PS: of course you can wear the outfits all winter long!

The most beautiful Coats & Jackets for Winter

Even though the days are slowly getting longer and the temperatures occasionally rise noticeably, you simply can’t get through January without a coat. That’s why I’m sharing my favorite coats below – they’re not only wonderfully warm but also super glamorous. Plus, I’ll showcase some beautiful capes and cozy faux-fur jackets!
