Call us organised, but while it may not be cold enough to sling on all those chunky winter coats, or begin expertly layering new knitwear over floaty dresses and skirts, we are, however, ready to start investing in cold weather heroes that’ll define our winter wardrobes when the temperature really drops.
Top of the list when it comes to accessories guaranteed to beat the impending chill has to be a pair of super-snug gloves. And when we say snug, what we really mean, is a pair so cosy and so warm, you needn’t own anything else.
With that in mind, we’re skipping straight to the good stuff and looking to all things sheepskin. Why? For longer than we can remember, shearling and sheepskin has been keeping our fingers (and toes) suitably toasty, so why change a habit of a lifetime?
Luckily, we’re not the only fans, as some of our favourite stores – both high street and designer - have begun lining their virtual rails with so many covetable styles, it’s going to be fairly tricky to choose a favourite.
Whether you’re more of a classic dresser and prefer something neutral and tan, or you’re looking for subtle ways to freshen an old winter coat and Miu Miu’s mittens are more your bag – we’ve rounded-up 10 of the chicest (and warmest) sheepskin pairs around right now. Scroll below to see (and shop) them all.
Isabel Marant Yupiks Gloves
We can always rely on Isabel Marant for ultra-chic accessories. This season, one of our favourite add-ons has to be this pair of long tan gloves. The longer length is ideal for wearing with outerwear that exposes the wrist, or, why not try styling yours under statement sleeve knits? Both equally chic and guaranteed to keep you warm.
