With winter carrying on for another 6 weeks (thank you, Mr. Groundhog) your life really does feel like Groundhog Day since you wear the same thing day after day&#8230;after day: jeans and a black top, or sometimes, if you\u2019re feeling a bit crazy, jeans and white one. After the novelty of a cute winter \u2018drobe wore off (like the 2nd week of negative temps and slushy snow), it\u2019s hard to put any effort into looking presentable and unique.<\/p>\n<p>But after this article you will see that even if you keep your winter uniform intact, you can make it look like you really cared <em>and<\/em> make a ordinarily boring \u2018fit ready for any occasion just by adding a few fun accessories.\u00a0 And you can do it all for cheap. I\u2019ve said it once and I\u2019ll say it again: accessories are the BEST way to revamp an outfit, create a look, change it up, or try out a trend without <span style=\"text-decoration:line-through;\">spending that booze money<\/span> breaking the bank.<span id=\"more-53089\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Winter Uniform #1:<br \/>\nJeans, White Tee and Sweater<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I LOVE pink and grey.

So versatile. So easy to work with. You can dress this look up with pumps and a clutch, or dress it down with Uggs and a tote. The key is big, bold accessories. This necklace is great because it&#8217;s dressy and ties in perfectly to the black-on-black top combo. And that ring, sigh, is to die for. It&#8217;s the easiest way to completely change this look. Just make sure not to go overboard with the accessories. If you do a bold necklace, stick to more toned down earrings and rings. If you wanna rock a big ring, choose a more basic necklace.<\/p>\n<p>Remember: you want to accessorize, not be a walking jewelry box!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-53146 aligncenter\" title=\"winter fit 2\" src=\"http:\/\/collegecandy.files.wordpress.com\/2010\/02\/winter-fit-2.png?w=472&#038;h=483\" alt=\"\" width=\"472\" height=\"483\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;\"><em>Jeans: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gap.com\/browse\/product.do?cid=48599&amp;vid=1&amp;pid=673959\">Gap<\/a>, $69.50<br \/>\nCardigan: <a href=\"http:\/\/oldnavy.gap.com\/browse\/product.do?cid=51747&amp;vid=1&amp;pid=729977&amp;scid=729977002\">Old Navy<\/a>, $29.50<br \/>\nCami: <a href=\"http:\/\/oldnavy.gap.com\/browse\/product.do?cid=7524&amp;vid=1&amp;pid=730931&amp;scid=730931002\">Old Navy<\/a>, $10.50<br \/>\nNecklace: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.forever21.com\/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=FOREVER21&amp;category%5Fname=acc%5Fnecklace&amp;product%5Fid=1089218537&amp;Page=1\">Forever 21<\/a>, $10.80<br \/>\nEarrings: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.forever21.com\/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=FOREVER21&amp;category%5Fname=acc%5Fearrings&amp;product%5Fid=1074245444&amp;Page=1\">Forever 21<\/a>, $3.80<br \/>\nRing: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.charlotterusse.com\/product\/index.jsp?productId=3956111\">Charlotte Russe<\/a>, $8.50<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Winter Uniform #3:<br \/>\nGood for Any Outfit<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:left;\">Throw on the scarf, necklace, earrings or ring with ANY solid color ensemble, jeans or leggings, and out you go!
