Winter kicks off the spring-summer fashion season every year, and as we start off in 2022 there are already exciting trends emerging. From eye-popping colours to playful oversizing and utility. With Aran in your wardrobe, you can’t go wrong this winter. Stay on trend or just stay cosy with looks you can trust. Here’s how to wear your Aran this winter.
Oversized Coats And Mini Skirts
Statement coats are a great way to wear Aran this winter. Why not opt for a coat a little out of the ordinary with a texture filled Trellis Aran Coat. Its natural wool will protect you from the Irish winter showers with its water repellent qualities and tight Aran stitches. The large collar will keep the chill away too, while the long length makes this coat a sophisticated wardrobe choice. Wear the Trellis Aran coat with flowing dresses and contrasting textures.
Alternatively, the Plaited One Button Coat with Hood, in Wine, has a flattering intricate pattern. This is a stunning winter coat that wraps slightly at the front and closes with one button. The hood drapes elegantly for extra warmth. Wear this statement coat with jeans and heeled boots for days out or over your best gúna for a party.
Chopped hemlines are back this season with mini skirts and micro skirts appearing on the catwalks. Dazzle in our on trend Aran Merino Mini skirt and matching slipover in sunflower yellow this winter. The skirt has an elasticated fit and statement buttons. Worn together, the merino mini skirt and slip can be layered with an oversized jacket or coat and chunky boots.
Solar Inspired Colours
Expect to see bright solar inspired colours everywhere this year – the brighter the better. Keeping up with this trend is as simple as wearing the right hue or a bright hue. Stay warm in warm colours with the textured Merino cardigan in Golden Ochre. Guaranteed to become your favourite winter cardigan, this is a chunky relaxed piece you’ll love to wear. To dress up your textured cardigan for work or nights out, accessorise with a statement belt.
Sometimes, you just want to add colour with one eye-popping statement piece and the Celtic Ruana Wrap is just that. Choose a wrap striking purple or lemon to stay on trend or two-toned checks for an added wow factor. Made from superfine Lambswool and Nylon this is one of our more versatile pieces. Thanks to its oversized style and lightweight fabric, you can wear it as a shawl, skirt or chunky scarf.
The Aran Shawl Wrap with pockets in orange is another eye-catching winter wardrobe staple. This wrap is a lovely modern take on the cosy classic wrap and has handy pockets at the front. Another adaptable piece of winter wear, the Shawl Wrap will work well with many outfits. Wear it with your best skinny jeans and high boots or to keep the chill away over a dress or skirt.
Elegance Is Always In Vogue
Classic fashion pieces become classics because they are beloved and withstand the test of time. Some fashion pieces (like the wool sweater) just never go out of style. Another thing that is always in vogue is elegance. Elegance is a look that spans the ages and always turns heads.
To add elegance to your winter outfits look no further than the super soft luxury button-up Flared Aran Cardigan. The Flared Cardigan has a popular cable and diamond knitted stitch in soft merino wool. For anyone that loves to feel snug, this is the perfect sweater for winter. In fact, it’s the perfect sweater for all seasons as the natural wool is heat regulating. Meaning it will keep you warm or cool depending on the weather. Its lightweight and versatile design flares out from the waist in a regal and feminine form. Wear your flared cardigan with baggy boyfriend jeans or dress it up with a fitted skirt.
The wrap over shawl collar of the Woven Textured Aran Wrap Coat makes it a timeless winter favourite. The drop of the cardigan and delicate stitching gives this coat its effortless elegance. This is a piece that can be worn to spruce up day to day outfits, keeping you looking fabulous. It also looks fantastic over tailored jumpsuits and dresses. Mix it up with oversized jewellery and a statement bag.
Beach Ready Or Romantic Winter Walks
We don’t always associate the beach with winter but a walk outside in the open fresh air can’t be beaten. Or maybe you’re fond of a refreshing dip in the ice-cold wild waters of Ireland. Whenever you head to the beach, take a trusty Aran favourite with you.
The Super Soft Poncho Rib Neck will fit cosily over your winter layers and keep you warm at the beach. The freedom of a poncho makes walking more enjoyable and less restrictive and the roll collar keeps away chills. Available in several colours, this soft poncho is both stylish and practical. Wear it over layers of natural fabrics for added warmth. Natural fabrics hold heat better than synthetics. The natural wool of this poncho will also regulate your warmth levels.
Anyone who braves cold water swimming will appreciate the warmth of the shawl collared Belted Cardigan. Wrap up after your dip in the unbeatable and soft warmth of Aran. The belt of this cardigan is thick knit which, along with the cosy pockets will ensure you stay cosy. You’re sure to be the most stylish swimmer at the beach in this casual, yet sophisticated, knitwear.
If you love to stroll in the romantic winter weather will love the Batwing Jacket. This unique jacket has shorter ‘batwing’ sleeves than regular jacket styles. It lends itself well to layering and looks immaculate whether you wear it with walking boots or muddy wellies. The Batwing jacket is a firm favourite thanks to its distinctive shape and Celtic knot zipper pull and buttons. This really is an outer layer that can go from day to night with nearly any look.
Keep It Cosy
When you just want to feel snug, even when you have to leave the house, Aran will deliver. Choose an item like the super-soft Aran cowl neck sweater and dress it with fleece-lined leisurewear to ensure ultimate comfort. The delicate stitches of this sweater will keep you looking sophisticated even when you’re feeling casual.
Graceful yet cosy, the Aran Wrap Cardigan is a long length, flattering, addition to a winter wardrobe. Team it with trousers and a long sleeve t-shirt or just stay home in your PJs, snug as a bug.
Aran is a Winter wardrobe winner because it ticks all the boxes. It keeps you warm, stylish and is very low maintenance. Make sure you have a faithful Aran winter winner in your wardrobe this season.
