Winter Wardrobe Essentials

Just because it’s wintry outside, doesn’t mean we can’t look stylish and put together while staying warm. Listed below are some winter wardrobe essentials that I think every woman needs whether you are going to the office, a night out or just hanging out with family or friends on the weekends.

Skinny Jeans - Skinny jeans (as well as leggings and jeggings) are perfect for winter and you can layer multiple items on top for warmth. You can wear both with boots or ankle boots and a leather jacket for day or heels and a silk drape top for a night out on the town.

Cashmere Sweater - Nothing says chic like a cashmere sweater. This layering piece is easy to dress up or dress down and looks great over a collared shirt and goes with everything including skirts, leggings, jeans, trousers and leather pants.

Fedora - Wearing a hat may not come to mind when thinking of winter must haves, but a wool or felt fedora is a great way to keep warm without sacrificing style (or your hair) and this accessory can put the finishing touch on any winter outfit.

Statement Coat - In winter your outerwear is an important part of your wardrobe too! Adding a statement coat to your wardrobe will add a pop of color to any neutral or all-black winter outfit.

Over the Knee Boots - Warm, chic and perfect for winter! Over the knee boots can be dressed down with jeans, leggings or a jumper for a casual daytime look or glammed up with a skirt or mini dress at night.

Knitted Jumper Dress - The easiest way to wear a dress and stay cozy at the same time is by wearing a knitted jumper dress and for added warmth, pair it with tights or your favorite winter coat. Whether you choose a form fitting or a relaxed style, you can’t go wrong and this style looks good with most shoes.

Blanket Wrap Scarf - The blanket wrap scarf is a chic addition to any winter outfit and there are countless ways to style this cold weather accessory such as wrapped around your neck or draped over your shoulders.

Turtleneck Top - Investing in a turtleneck top or two will keep your neck warm all winter long and this classic style looks good with anything like underneath a sweater or sleeveless dress, or simply worn on its own with jeans or leggings.

Leather Jacket - A leather jacket is a must for every winter wardrobe. It adds a little edge to any outfit. Wear it over jeans and a tee for a casual weekend look or over a blouse and pants for a night out. A leather jacket can turn any winter outfit from drab to fab!

Ankle Boots - Ankle boots are a winter wardrobe staple. Stylish and versatile, this shoe never seems to get old. Pair with a dress and tights during the day or finish off any night out look.

Every season has wardrobe essentials and in winter, it’s all about staying warm and looking stylish at the same time and the end of January means winter sales! Retailers need to make room for spring clothing so if you don’t have everything listed above in your closet, head over to your favorite shops and see what’s on sale and until next time, stay happy, healthy and beautiful!
