If you've been procrastinating on gift-shopping and instead have been stocking up on your own winter wear, don't forget to keep your digits protected from the cold too! For the wintry months ahead, leather is migrating from moto jackets to accessories and is starting to replace knits and cashmere in the realm of cozy hand-warmers. Fingerless gloves are all over the place (okay, so maybe they're more for fun than function) but you can put your own spin on the trend with studs or chains. Or, for an updated take on Old Hollywood glamour, opt for a longer pair a la Audrey Hepburn (though hers weren't luxe leather like these!). No matter what your style, you're bound to find your perfect pair among this season's varied selection!
Cute and functional aren't found in the same package nearly enough, am I right? All too often it feels like we're forced to choose between the two! That's why I'm so excited that fingerless gloves are finally being considered a style statement beyond that of 'hobo' (not boho, hobo). Mittens and gloves are adorable in their own right, but soon enough we all need use of our fingertips, if only for the purpose of adjusting the volume on our iPods. And who wants to be pulling on gloves and taking them off all the time? Designers from those on Etsy to fashion favorite 3.1 Phillip Lim seem to agree because the knit wonders are popping up everywhere!
