As we inch closer to the official onset of winter (those of us living in the Midwest would be comfortable arguing that winter has already begun), I though I’d dedicate a few posts over the course of the next few weeks to wardrobe staples meant for the colder months.  One necessary cold weather staple is a pair of leather gloves.  This oft forgotten accessory can add just the right touch to any ensemble.  I personally prefer cashmere lined gloves as they provide a bit of warmth with a luxurious feel.  The options presented below are not just meant for functionality but to add a bit of style to any cold weather ensemble.
