In the wintertime, when the weather gets chilly, shorts and skirts are traded in for pants, sweaters and bulky coats. Gone is the opportunity to show your skin, and some believe it becomes more difficult to flaunt your sex appeal. However, it is possible to look cute and alluring even during the colder seasons -- without freezing your buns off. This guide will show you how to dress warm and still look sexy.

• If you think that your clothes must reveal all of your "goods" to be attractive, think again. Being sexy is more about presenting yourself in a flattering way than letting it all hang out, so to speak. Fortunately, there are plenty of winter clothes that are tailored to accentuate the female form and flatter your best assets. Below you will find ideas on how to turn heads while keeping warm and cozy.

Many clothes this season have been designed for layering, which can look extremely sexy. Try a skintight turtleneck or long-sleeved shirt underneath a snug tee, and top off the look with a short vest or jacket. On the bottom, slip on some leggings, and you can get away with wearing your favorite skirts or dresses while still keeping toasty. Leg warmers are back in style now, and can add some whimsy and sex appeal to the look. Skinny jeans are a hot look right now, as well. Don't forget about scarves, which keep the neck warm and can be very flattering,

When it comes to clothing, the print and cut are both important. Animal prints such as leopard, tiger and zebra are in style right now, and can give you a wild and sexy look. Shiny and shimmery fabrics such as silver or bronze, as well as glittery designs, will attract attention. Solid black is sexy, too.

• Avoid overly bulky cuts--streamlined is the way to go if you want to look hot in cold weather. Tunic tops paired with slim pants work well, and long, slim coats can pull a sexy look together nicely.

The shoes you wear can have a huge impact on the overall sexiness of your outfit. This season boots are everywhere, in a variety of sexy styles. If you are bold, try a pair of black suede above-the-knee boots with a stiletto heel. If you prefer to be a bit more subtle, a pair of low-heeled booties may be a good choice. For a classically sexy look, sport knee-high boots with leggings and a short dress. Boots also look great worn over a pair of skinny jeans, and this style is especially flattering for women with curves.
