Winter is here and the New Year is almost upon us! Time to see what new and special items of clothing will accompany us next year.

Fashion piece: Pink down jacket from Bonprix
Price: around 90 euros
Can be combined with: Colors like black and white. I usually combine the jacket with simpler outfits because the jacket itself is eye-catching enough.
Portability factor: I really wear the jacket very often. Not only is it warm, but also perfect for slightly rainy days. Also: I received so many compliments on the color that I just want to wear it.
Ideal for the New Year because: With a little color you can start the new year much more beautifully. When everything is dreary and gray outside, the bright pink brings a bit of good mood into my morning.

Fashion piece: Marianne scarf from Sézane
Price: approx. 75 euros
Can be combined with: Depending on your mood, the purple scarf can be combined with other bright colors in a color blocking style – or, and I like it better, with my camel-colored coat and cool winter boots in winter. It is a color that goes well with delicate spring colors, but also makes light earth tones shine.
Portability factor: The scarf is long and fluffy and has therefore been a clear favorite in my wardrobe since day one. It is not too wide and is therefore easy to tie and warm as it is made of baby alpaca wool.
Ideal for the New Year because: Even when temperatures drop below ten degrees, my throat and neck need additional warmth. I can hardly go through winter without a scarf. Since I almost only own gray and beige models, this year I countered them with color. With success: I have already received the first compliments on the scarf.

Fashion piece: Sleek Chain from Fafe Collection
Price: 85 euros
Can be combined with: I prefer to combine them with an elegant diamond solitaire necklace. But it can also be wonderfully layered with a pearl necklace.
Portability factor: It fits perfectly on the neck and is not called the “snake” chain for nothing. The piece of jewelry is made of 925 silver, which shines wonderfully with multiple 18 carat gold plating and overall looks very valuable.
Ideal for the New Year because: Similar to my wardrobe, I also want to create a capsule wardrobe for my jewelry box – and a sleek chain is a must. For me it is the perfect all-rounder as it can be layered or worn alone to enhance any outfit.
Motivated like an LA mom Editor Julika uses her new sports jacket from Lululemon to motivate herself to exercise more in the new year. © PR
Fashion piece: Define cropped jacket “Nulu” from Lululemon
Price: approx. 118 euros
Can be combined with: any other sports equipment. The short-cut jacket hugs the body 1A and looks great especially with equally tight yoga pants. If it is still a little too cold, I would combine the good piece with a vest over it.
Portability factor: Shaping is included with this jacket – and I love it! Nevertheless, the “Nulu” is anything but uncomfortable. In simple white, it really goes with everything and creates a pretty silhouette. This gives LA mom vibes.
Ideal for the New Year because: With this piece, every good resolution to do more exercise is doubled! I have rarely felt as comfortable in (tight) sportswear as I did in this jacket. Throwing them on after exercise or warming up in them is a real highlight.
