We show you how to bundle up in style while braving the cold Ottawa climate.

Ottawa weather can be tough on fashion, especially when a polar vortex makes you want to put on sweats to stay warm. In preparation for the cold weather, pair slush-ready boots with a cozy coat. It’s a match made in fierce weather heaven. This season, make your focus on a solid-coloured coat — the staple to any wardrobe.

Q: I’ll be attending a holiday gala and want to wear a dress that has a bit of sparkle, but nothing over the top. Help!

A: The ideal Christmas party dress is something that will make you stand out for the evening but won’t make you feel like you’re out of your comfort zone. Avoid anything that’s too short and opt for a dress with a gold or silver hue. If you plan to wear a black dress but want to add some sparkle with jewelry, find a big and bold necklace that will make you feel glamorous all evening long
