If you're anything like me, your winter wardrobe is filled with head-to-toe knitwear, cozy sweaters, and high necklines on just about anything. Yet throughout the season, it's easy to fall into a cycle of grabbing your go-to black turtleneck time and again, making the art of dressing a bit lackluster. While it may seem as though we're in the midst of winter, sweeter days are just around the corner, so I've put together a list of the prettiest items at fashion-forward retailers Shopbop, Nordstrom, and H&M.
Whether you're searching for a flirty frock for Valentine's Day, planning a sunshine-filled escape, or simply staying ahead of the curve for the spring/summer season, these items are sure to have you covered. Plus, pieces that are dubbed as "pretty" can actually be paired with cold-weather staples like leather pants and knee-high boots for a juxtaposed, stylish winter look that fits anyone's personal style. You'll want to scroll through these items and thank me later.
