Sheer shirts have been having a major moment as of late, and we can't help but be obsessed. Just because the temperatures have dropped now that winter's rolled in doesn't mean you can't pull off this trending piece. Thanks to some of our favorite street style stars, celebrities, and bloggers we've spotted wearing the piece, we have the perfect inspiration on how to style a sheer shirt through the colder months. The key is all in your layering game, and in this case, the more layers the merrier.

One look we will be personally trying out is layering a colorful sheer top over a neutral ribbed turtleneck sweater. Over that, we'll add a sleek long coat in a complementary hue—you can never go wrong with a camel coat. To complete the look we'll include a pair of high-waisted straight-leg jeans, leather ankle boots, and a stylish mini bucket bag for good measure.
