So good to see a video on winter fashion from someone who actually UNDERSTANDS dressing for ACTUAL cold weather!!! So many fashion KZbinrs do not understand the need to layer a jacket over a jacket 😂

[@BusbeeStyle]

Thank you, Angela! Living in Telluride...I know COLD! xo

[@maryokeefe5351]

Hi from Canada and loving these tips! May I add a few? Glad you like our Sorel boots, sporty and super warm with a good grip. Also worth checking out is La Canadienne boots for a more urban vibe. In really cold weather, I would NEVER wear a base layer of cotton (retains moisture, which then freezes) or those pleather leggings, which are essentially made of plastic. Put only merino wool or silk next to your skin. You can get tissue weight merino wool underthings at ski shops. Merino wool socks are also the best, as the fabric wicks away moisture and is super comfortable. A down-filled puffer vest is a better layering piece than a jacket with sleeves. You want a wicking layer, an insulating layer and an outer shell layer. Then bring on the cold, Baby! It's all cool. Love your channel, beautiful Erin!

[@theroots8941]

I don't know what I am doing wrong, but I tend to feel cooler in silk base layers and I tend to run cool anyway.

[@jeannedarc9222]

[@alisonho3724]

I am from Canada and I actually wear skirt and stockings in winter hahaha. The trick is to wear a pair of flesh tone fleece tights and wear your sheer stocking over them, then you will be warm and look super cute!

[@annevalentine1175]

Great tips. What I most enjoy about this video is the emphasis on self-care. Staying warm in frigid weather is self-care; you show us how to do so with pizazz. Thank you.

[@BusbeeStyle]

You're SO welcome, Anne! xo

[@MM-cb6fz]

Appreciate the timely advice. Living near Buffalo, keeping warm for 6 months of the year is part of life. Perhaps you could do another video with affordable alternatives. $150 for a pair of gloves?!! Most of us do not have the resources to indulge in your suggestions. Just a thought from upstate NY.

[@Ozziecatsmom]

You're right, I usually lose a glove or two every winter so I buy cheap ones. Cashmere sweaters and boots that are around $250 out of my range. Actually the boots she shows are 328.62 Canadian, way too much for me!

[@BusbeeStyle]

Great suggestion! I also feature a bigger mix of price points on my Liketoknow.it page. xo

[@pappyone6062]

I agree that some of these options are pretty pricey. I actually mentioned a couple cheaper suggestions up above. Still a bit pricey but much less than the $850 for the linked puffer coat. Macy’s has some for cheaper. Different brands. Costco has some great shorter puffer coats for $25. Target also. The gap may also periodically. There are various places for warm comfy nice boots. Try shoe stores like DSW or famous footwear. Also try googling these on the internet. You never know where a great deal will be. Can’t depend on only what’s linked. I hope this helps.

[@lisamariepagliei3945]

I know I need affordable alternatives also! Thank you for raising that point; it's important!

[@theMalteseCarnivore]

For gloves, hats, scarfs and sweaters in pure cashmere/wool why not find local artisans in your area who can provide bespoke handmade items. The pricepoint should be more reasonable than most suggestions on here! I fully stand behind the warmth in such handmade garments as I crochet as a hobby and have created many exquisite winter pieces which only cost me time, effort and the price of material and which have lasted much longer than any store/online bought merchandise.

[@NicknameOnly]

I strongly recommend Woolx layers. My winters changed when I started wearing soft Merino wool leggings and long sleeve t shirts year 'round. They offer several weights of wool as well so you can choose the right kind for your local weather.

[@RoxieEE]

As a Canadian, let me just say, I knew exactly where you were going with "thirty minutes from the Canadian border." Also as a Canadian, thank you for this video. We need it!

By the way, my five-year-old son loves your plaid coat. The second it came on, he said, "Oh, NICE!" And then he kept going on about it, "I like the BEFORE more." It really is a great coat.

[@marilyndoering2501]

Great video Erin! I live in Ottawa Canada where it gets really cold in the winter. I love my waterproof yet stylish Blondo boots, and merino wool is essential to keep me warm and comfortable without bulk. And when it’s really chilly, merino wool base-layers are the best! I love hats, even a wool beret keeps your head warm and still looks chic. Add a pop of colour with a cozy scarf and I’m ready to go!

[@deniseeldred4901]

I prefer silk long underwear. The cotton ones get stretched out while wearing them and hold onto water/sweat too much. The poly/man made fabrics can keep you too warm when you go into heated indoors. Silk or a silk and wool combo is great to keep you very warm and not too hot if you get the slightly thicker fabric and not the "silky" lingering type.

[@anitaclemens2609]

Thank you, Erin. All great tips for looking stylish during the Winter. I grew up in Watertown, MA. I have always heard of Watertown NY, because during the Winter, the News broadcasters in Boston would always point to Watertown, NY for temperature comparisons. I think they were trying to make us feel better about our own cold weather. "Well look how cold it is in Watertown, NY." LOL. I always use my silk ski undergarments to layer, but I like your suggestions, too. The layer after a silk undergarment will always slide over very nicely. In the worse storm days, I wear my Apres ski boots from Italy, they are just beautiful with a legging and a Fair Isle sweater. But I like your suggestion about the stylish wedge boot or gripping heel very much. I will take a look at your suggestions, not that I am going anywhere this year. I never had a problem with jackets under coats until recently. I use to have a beautiful long A-lined wool Swing coat, that coat fit everything underneath and still looked stylish, but alas, it went out of style, so I donated it. I have had a hard time finding another coat to fit over my blazers. Thanks for the tip, I just have to look harder, maybe a wrap coat will do the trick. And yes, my mother always told me to wear a hat because you lose a lot of body heat through your head. I like your two head coverings suggestions, I have never thought of that. :-) Thanks again, Erin.

I live in a cold, damp climate (western Washington) and all my gear has to be seriously waterproof, too. So, unfortunately, I don't get to wear wool coats or furry hats very often.

[@hollyrae5476]

I'm from Alberta Canada and I can verify that these are all EXCELLENT, absolutely true tips!!! Here in the US I constantly overhear people complaining about being cold in the winter when they are NOT dressed for it at all! Being in denial that it's wintertime (i.e., continuing to wear flip flops, shorts and jean jackets) does NOT affect the temperature. It is much sexier IMHO to be calm and classy in appropriate clothing vs. shivering and having your teeth chattering with your arms folded across your chest trying to stay warm. Lol The only thing I would add is that real DOWN is ALWAYS better than poly filling (which is NOT warm at all, just bulky!) That's the first thing I look for (fabric care tag) to see the filling content (down/feathers vs. poly), because trying on in the store at 70 degrees it is easy to be fooled and think a coat is warm when it isn't going to be once you are outside. This is such a good video!

It's very interesting to see other people's strategies against the cold. For me thebiggest challenge is to be warm outside and then be able to bear heated rooms when I'm not able to change. For me the ideal is an ankle long high quality woollen coat. It's always elegant and you don't need these incredibly boring, unflattering puffer jackets everyone wears. If you find one that fits you you won't have any problems with big sweaters underneath. I like wearing a big sweater underneath my coat that I can take off when I'm indoors and wear something light underneath. Another advantage of a long coat is that you don't need tights/leggings underneath your jeans because the coat is doing the job and you're comfortable indoors. I would always go for boxy coats because they're warmer because you have an extra layer of arm air between your body and the coat. The 98% of women who aren't as skinny as you are look like pregant kangaroos in belted coats anyway. ;-)

By the way, LOVE your winter videos (note: I live in deadly cold Canada!)

[@BusbeeStyle]

Glad you like them, Adriana! xo

Hello from deadly cold Moscow region!

[@moonbaby8743]

@@oxanaburdenkova2627 😀 I love that fashion crosses borders and connects all of us. Stay warm, and may you have a blessed winter. ❄️☃️🌬

So helpful! These are good nuggets! 💠 I’m gonna take control of my scarf 🧣 so it doesn’t eat my head! 🤗

[@berleneloubser6227]

I always love your winter wear style tips!!! Keep them coming!

[@Bunny-cz5wo]

Thank you , thank you for your suggestions. Question, I notice in most of the videos I watch, that you use black or more neutral color and I love that look. I am in my seventies and have read at my age I should wear bright color, what is your opinion on that. Thank you again, you are a beautiful,talented lady.

[@BusbeeStyle]

You should wear whatever colors make you happy...and I LOVE neutrals. That said, black can look harsh on us as we age so I sometimes like to incorporate softer tones like creams, camels, browns, and greys. xo

[@Bunny-cz5wo]

Thank you,I will continue viewing your suggestions, best wishes to you and yours 🌻

[@edennis8578]

I find that navy blue works well when black looks too harsh. Navy also looks great with camel or white. It's harder to match navy, though, when you want a monochromatic look, unless you buy the pieces from the same brand in the same year.

[@NYCinderella]

so our darling Erin, here's the question of the day, when are you going to design clothes for women? You have such a great grasp on what we need, what looks best on us, etc. Do tell . . . Hugs, Cindy

[@roseroseroserose6958]

Good question. And I AGREE!

[@mgoretevieira8640]

OMG I often feel frumpy in the winter. Thank you for this video. I plan to put these tips into practice right away.

[@BusbeeStyle]

Glad it was helpful! xo

[@DreamingDarlin]

Good tips. I especially like the double hat idea. Thanks.

[@BusbeeStyle]

Glad it was helpful! xo

Maybe not “cold”, but L.A. gets down in the 30’s, teens inland. Not Miami over here! 😅

[@theMalteseCarnivore]

A good video: a great one would have been if you touched on skirts! God bless babe 💙

[@mjsimmons2605]

Thank you for this video about laying in the winter. I live in Crested Butte, have taught alpine & nordic skiing, conducted snowshoe tours & drove buses year round for 17 years. Yes I know cold weather. I gathered a few tips today. 🤩

[@meanoldbag]

Thank you! Just employed your techniques - went for a morning walk looking and feeling warm and FABulous!

[@BusbeeStyle]

Wonderful! So glad you enjoyed it, Sherry! xo

[@mstwelvedeadlycyns]

Very good points for winter wear!

[@allisonbellefontaine9561]

Wonderful tips and information. Thanks again for another wonderful video.

[@BusbeeStyle]

You are so welcome, Allison! xo

[@STSpringerChannel]

Great video! In the cold (but not in the negatives!), I like a vest as a layer. I have a trim one that I can wear under my packable puffer so your core stays warm but you don't add layers to your arms.

[@BusbeeStyle]

Great tip, Susan! xo

[@laurieparis2203]

That's a great tip! I have a couple faux furs vests and something really soft that looks like black plush velvet that keeps me really warm, too. As well as a few leather vests.

[@elviazepeda7hju098]

Great video Erin, as always 👍

[@deeweber2506]

My favorite video of yours to date! I live in a cold climate, and I'm petite, so the tips here were great.

[@BusbeeStyle]

I'm SO glad Dee! xo

[@designorganize2608]

BRILLIANT! I loved all the advice but was especially taken with the boot and hat ideas. TWO hats at the same time? WOW! Why not! Thanks.... each idea is scaleable to where any of us live.

[@BusbeeStyle]

Glad it was helpful! xo

[@beautyforumbyangela]

You could make Stay Puff Marshmallow Man look chic. Great stylish techniques to keep you warm & sleek. Thank you 😊. I appreciate you & your videos. Cheers 😉🌷

[@ghosts231]

Those black Sorel boots are killer. I also love those gloves with the mittens over them. I think that’s what they are, they look so good.

[@soohuisailer6928]

Hi Erin, thanks again for all the tips you shared here. I managed to convince myself to get a pair of Sorel wedged boots ( Joan Uptown in black) after watching your video repeatedly. Can’t wait to try it on when it arrives in a few days. Love your style, love your ideas. Thanks .... xoxo from France.

[@BusbeeStyle]

Yay! Enjoy them! xo

[@ivelissedejuangomez3233]

Thank you for all the tips, I moved from Puerto Rico to MN 25 yrs ago and I learned really quick that layering is key on cold weather. I can’t leave without my Sorel, is snowing in here as I’m watching this video sounds like a long winter. Yicks...

[@BusbeeStyle]

Glad it was helpful...I bet your first winter in MN was shocking! xo

[@lindarosenthal6835]

Love my Sorel boots. I mostly wear my uggs around the house. Lol. Great tips. Thanks.

[@katechipata9934]

Super helpful and perfect timing! Thank you so much :)

Great tip on the shiny Spanx leggings! I live in chilly Northern Michigan and that tip is one I can use 4 months of the year!!
