When it comes to my winter wardrobe, I tend to play it simple since colder temperatures only last for a few weeks at most in sunny Los Angeles. Although that means I don’t spend a lot on trendy winter pieces, that doesn’t necessarily mean I can’t be trend-forward and chic. Here are my latest steals from GoJane that are perfectly on-trend for winter 2017.

Must-Have #1: Black Sock Booties

As the weather drops, it becomes impractical to sport stiletto pumps during cold evenings out. Sock booties are a great shoe that keep the minimalistic silhouette of a pump along with protection from the elements. Get them in black and they’ll match every single outfit just like a pair of black pumps would, from dresses to denim and even joggers.
