Looking to fight the cold weather without sacrificing your fashion sense? I know precisely what you need. Below, you’ll find the topwinter wardrobe essentials you must have for a chic season.
Let’s say, hypothetically, that you need only a few essential pieces in your closet this winter. Mind you, I don’t mean you can have just a few items and nothing else (I’m not insane). I mean compile a seasonal collection of items that effortlessly syncs with your year-round go-to pieces—both to update your wardrobe and to give you layering options for the temperamental weather. Here are my favourite winter basics:
A Sophisticated Coat
Invest in an oversized coat to layer over all your looks this season. Perfect for work or the weekend, a chic coat is one of this season’s most versatile pieces.
Turtleneck Top
A turtleneck top will ensure that your neck is nice and snug all winter long! This style looks good with anything whether it be paired with a sleeveless dress or simply worn on its own with jeans.
A Ladylike Midi Dress
Just because it’s cold outside doesn’t mean you should forgot your favourite dresses this season. Just opt for one with long sleeves and a midi-length hemline to give more coverage without skimping on feminine elegance.
