New Year Cozy Chic – January’s Stylish Monday link up

Is it cold in your part of the world? Here in the UK the Winter has been quite mild, although it’s quite possible that we’ll get a cold snap in the next few weeks. January and February are often colder than December. Actually, I much prefer cold, sunny days to grey skies and rain. Plus, I get to wear my cozy chic outfits, which is the theme of this month’s Stylish Monday collaboration. (I’ve adopted the U.S spelling of “cozy” for this post to match the collage).

staying true to the cozy chic theme I wore jeans and a roll neck jumper

My New Year cozy chic outfit is based around this gorgeous faux fur coat that I bought from Asos a year or so ago. With blue, black, tan and grey in the mix I had plenty of styling options, but staying true to the cozy chic theme I wore dark blue jeans and a roll neck jumper. As well as picking out the blues, I’ve also chosen a tan hat and bag. I bought the hat in the Marks & Spencer sale although I can’t find it online now. Things tend to sell out fast, but this one from George at Asda is very similar.

I love chunky roll neck sweaters during the colder months. However, when you’re wearing a big faux fur coat you need a more lightweight one. This blue sweater from Mango is very thin and great for layering. With the jeans, it provides a basic blue foundation for the statement coat and allows the tan to stand out. I’ve added my really old brown boots and gold jewellery to finish off the outfit.

Let’s find out a little bit about my blogger friends and see their New Year cozy chic outfits…

Nancy of Nancy’s Fashion Style lives in the Netherlands. Much like the UK, the Winters are predominantly grey and often wet. The temperature is typically around 5C with occasional snow. Nancy is keeping out the chills in a gorgeous purple coat and faux leather leggings…very stylish!

Nicole of High Latitude Style lives in Alaska where the Winters are 7 months long and temperatures can drop to below -40F or -40C! She’s staying warm in a fabulous floral print coat and faux fur hat.

Robin LaMonte of Hello I’m Fiftyish lives in Atlanta, Georgia. I love the combination of black and red faux leather with the check wrap. Very chic!

Suzanne lives in Northern California where the climate is mild and Winters are short. Wearing a lightweight coatigan and baring your ankles is not a problem in this part of the world! See more over on her blog Ask Suzanne Bell.

Nina of Sharing a Journey is from Florida where it’s often warm and humid in Winter. A biker jacket layered over a shirt is perfect for the cooler spells, which I gather Nina rather enjoys!

Julie of  Fashion Trends and Friends resides in Illinois. Her fabulous yellow jumper will brighten up any Winter’s day!

Cindy of Middle Sister Style Blog calls Denver in Colorado home. Definitely very cozy and chic in the teddy coat and leopard print scarf.

Andy of Pearls and Pantsuits lives in northwest Louisiana, where apparently the weather is quite unpredictable. Andy says the next few months will probably be rainy and cool, but nobody really knows! Ready for whatever the weather has in store, Andy is looking very chic in a houndstooth check coat with red gloves to hand! 

Hilda is from Ireland which experiences cold North winds and frequent rain. Visit her blog Over the Hilda to see more of her super stylish navy and tan outfit!
