In winter, temperatures are hardly conducive to swimsuits. Unless you live in Tahiti and are immune to the chill, these garments that accompany our salty dips in the sea don't see the light of day during the colder months. However, swimsuits can also be incorporated into fleece outfits and serve us well despite the low temperatures. A stylish way to make the most of them all year round.<\/p>\n
Walking around in a swimsuit in the dead of winter without catching a chill seems to be the privilege of islanders and those living in the Southern Hemisphere. It's a luxury only granted to those whose wardrobe consists solely of t-shirts and tank tops and whose goosebumps stand on end at 25\u00b0C. Otherwise, you need incredibly strong skin or Viking blood to wear a swimsuit outside of its preferred season. Wearing a swimsuit in winter when the temperature is below freezing and frost covers the ground is practically irresponsible. It's the best way to catch a cold, unless you're Scandinavian and spent your entire childhood napping in the snow.<\/p>\n
Yet, this swimsuit, more suited to sweltering heat than freezing cold, is a versatile garment, and content creator @arlindaxnyward proves it with a rare sense of style. She takes this beach essential out of its comfort zone and pairs it with woolen, padded, and cozy pieces. While in the height of summer, the swimsuit is often worn alongside patterned sarongs, linen trousers, and wrap dresses that are easy to leave behind on the sand, in winter, it demands more coverage.<\/p>\n
The fashionista, who dares the unthinkable, swaps sandals for rock-inspired boots and beach towels for leather-lined or quilted jackets for a look that's half sun, half cloud. A mix of styles and materials that, surprisingly, doesn't clash. Thanks to the layering<\/a> technique, she pushes the boundaries of the swimsuit, a garment once thought reserved for hot days and sun loungers. <\/p>\n\n
