While cold temperatures can sometimes take the pep out of your step, you must admit that your winter wardrobe can capture your personality. Yes, we love a puffer jacket, boots, gloves, and a thick scarf, but when it's cold outside, one of the first things that you think of is a warm and cuddly sweater.
