Art, unfortunately, doesn't always suit life”whenever I see winter runway shows or collections, I often think, ¦but would these actually work in a real winter? Some materials and cuts just don't weather salt slush and wind chills well, and when the weather gets vicious, it can be hard to think of experimenting with new clothing.
Fortunately, many of this season's trends are actually viable even in a Canadian winter. Here are some sound directives for styling yourself all winter long.
Stick with shearling

Shearling is back in a big way, whether in capes, hats or even trims for gloves. Anti-fur folks might admittedly hate this, but even fur enthusiasts might bemoan this because the warm stuff is just too darn expensive most of the time. That being said, if you’re looking for a coat and you want it to last, remember that faux shearling does exist, and there’s little in life more comforting than a faux lining on a cold winter’s day.
