Cute Ski Gear - What To Wear Skiing - Winter 2023

By A Mystery Man Writer

Hit the slopes in these chic ski pieces, from boots and jumpers to down parkas and winter accessories.

Sweaty Betty Peaks Half Zip Ski Base Layer

Let's start with the basics: Once you start moving, you'll quickly shed that jacket and want to feel more free and agile on the slopes. Formfitting base layers that are thin, smooth, moisture-wicking, and odor-resistant will allow you to do just that — and in style when you shed your jacket at the lodge.

Mountain Hardwear FireFall/2 Insulated Pant

You'll also need waterproof but breathable ski pants, which will keep the snow out while zippered vents let your body breathe as you get warm dipping and diving down those slopes.

FP Movement All Prepped Bibb

Another option: Overall-like bibs, which are perfect for adjusting length while also being extremely chic.

OOSC Rainbow Road ski suit in white

Ski suits don't just play to our inner peacock; they're an instant H2T 'fit that's equal parts retro and Instagram fodder.

Lululemon Down for It All Vest

Layers are absolutely key when it comes to staying comfortable on the mountain. A puffer vest like Lululemon's down version will keep you warm while adding minimal bulk underneath a waterproof shell.

The North Face Dragline Jacket

A high collar is preferable on a jacket to protect your neck from both sunshine and snow getting in and dripping down your back (yuck), but other than that, it's all about playing around with print and color.

ASPENX Prada Extreme Map Jacket

If you truly want to stand out on the slopes, nothing comes close to this bold yet stylish jacket from ASPENX's third capsule collection with Prada, which features a print from multimedia artist Paula Crown.

Alo Aspen Love Puffer Jacket

Bring on the brrr with this cropped puffer, which features zippered side pockets that are key for holding your phone and valuables secure while on the slopes. Plus, a removable hood allows you to keep your noggin warm — or not.

H&M Jacquard-knit Sweater

This pullover half-zip is quintessential après-ski chic but at a decidedly affordable price.

Perfect Moment Star II Suit

If you're looking to be the most stylish person on the slopes, look no further than this sleek printed suit.

Smith Optics Goggles

Look for goggles that have side vents and double screens so condensation doesn't build up inside and cloud your vision. The darker the lens, the better for tackling brighter, sunny skies, too. And remember to apply sunscreen all over your face to avoid awkward tan lines.

Dakine Fleetwood Mitten

Pretty self-explanatory, but do make sure you buy gloves with cinched wrists, whether it's toggle ties or elasticated fabric. Because if snow gets in there, you'll have freezing cold mitts all day. Our favorites include insulated, quilted mittens like this Dakine pair.

The North Face Shelbe Raschel Etip Gloves

If mittens don't give you the flexibility and mobility you crave on the slopes, insulated gloves are the way to go. We love this reliable North Face pair that has e-tips so you can still take selfies from the chairlift.

Spyder Pivot

When it comes to keeping your face protected, buffs and balaclavas are all you need. Look for ones made of a technical, lightweight fabric that allows for easy breathability while shielding you from harsh wind and snow.

Smartwool PhD Ski Medium Pattern Socks

Socks may not seem like a make-or-break thing when it comes to skiing, but trust us — your feet will thank you for investing in a pair (or two). The extra cushion, moisture-wicking fabric, and reinforced shin area all help to support your foot and offer respite from uncomfortable rented snow boots.
