Styling Licorice for Winter

Love the styling (especially the shoes in the last one! Where are they from?!), and these outfits would be perfect for October/November. It’s already too cold to wear sheer tights in Michigan, though, or leave the house without wool something underneath your coat, and I’m at a total loss about how to stay stylish and really warm in the dead of winter (in Michigan, it hit -19 degrees F last year). I could use some help getting out of my jeans-and-sweater rut, and I’d love to see a post styling Colette patterns for super cold temps!
