The secret is to dress in layers , wearing thin clothes, but made of thermal fabrics , to stay warm and not stuff yourself too much. Let's see, then, what are the must haves that cannot be missing in the winter wardrobe!

Dressing well when it's cold: the must-have items

1. Thermal shirts. To stay warm, under sweaters and sweatshirts you need to wear thin shirts in thermal fabric, well fitting to the body.

2. Opaque stockings and tights. Legs and feet must also be warm if you don't want to suffer from the cold. With dresses and skirts wear opaque stockings, preferably in wool or thermal fabrics, with trousers you can opt for thick socks, always in wool or warm cotton. Are you particularly sensitive to cold? Put a pair of Paris over tights!

3. Sweaters and cardigans (layered). When it's very cold, the ideal is to dress in layers: thermal sweater, thin worsted wool turtleneck sweater and thick wool oversized cardigan, to be removed indoors if it's too hot.

4. Capes. To wear not very heavy coats and jackets on very cold days, also put on an enveloping wool cape, it's back in fashion!

5. Ultralight down jackets. Ultralight down jackets in autumn and spring are perfect on their own, but you can also use them in winter by wearing them under coats and parkas, to stay warmer.

6. Boots and boots. Say goodbye to sneakers, flats and pumps: the perfect shoes for winter are boots.

Combat boots and lace-up boots with rubber para are ideal when it rains or snows, while flat or heeled boots will be your best friends on all other occasions.

7. Fur coats. Ecological furs are one of the main trends of the moment and they are also very hot. You must have at least one!

8. Maxi scarves. To shelter you from the cold wind, a scarf is essential. Choose it maxi, to be used also as a cape on coats.

9. Hats. Your head needs to stay warm too, so never forget your hat! The classic wool cap is the warmest, but the wide-brimmed one and the beret are also very nice.

10. Gloves. Finally, never leave the house without taking a nice pair of leather gloves with you, lined with soft wool. The "fingerless" ones are also comfortable, useful for using the smartphone or for typing on the computer taking advantage of the cold temperatures.
