Classics on Repeat
Simplicity is often key, so remember to always use your best basics as your foundation. A short car coat and pullover sweater look great over a plain white T-shirt. Style with a tailored miniskirt, tights, and leather knee-high boots to add polish to an off-duty look you can wear on repeat.

Focusing on Brown
Brown continues to dominate the season’s top color trends, seen on everything from jackets to handbags. The key to mixing and matching different tones is to use texture, such as a distressed leather jacket paired with a simple knit sweater. Bring in gray tweed trousers for some contrast on the bottom and to keep it from feeling too one-note.

A Pop of Red
If you primarily wear neutrals, winter is a good excuse to play with some color. Layer a bold red cardigan over a button-down shirt and thin turtleneck for a street-style-approved way to do winter layering. Slip-on mules are an easy footwear choice, but consider swapping them for booties if inclement weather is headed your way.

Adding in Leather
Cold-weather dressing relies heavily on leather. Style a brown moto jacket with an A-line midi skirt (preferably made from wool for added warmth), then pair it with a cream turtleneck sweater and knee-high riding boots as your key accessories. It’s an outfit that you can wear to the office, but it offers a bit more flair than classic workwear.

The Neutral Mix
A winter capsule wardrobe is built upon workhorses that have versatility. A wool wrap coat, white T-shirt, V-neck sweater, and trouser pants can be styled in numerous ways throughout the season, making this timeless combination pretty unbeatable. Add a stylish work bag and walkable leather boots to complete the look.

Sleek Faux Fur
A faux-fur jacket is a cozy necessity in frigid temperatures, but it can also add a touch of extra flair. Even when you’re going for a monochrome black look, it will add a fashionable talking point. Keep everything else simple with black trousers, a croc-embossed bag, and ballerina flats.

Prep-Forward Constants
Oversize topcoats, cable-knit sweaters, and khaki pants are all part of the preppy fashion playbook. As seen here, go for oversize silhouettes to make the pieces feel a bit more stylized and relaxed, aligning more with the street-style crowd rather than a collegiate rugby match.
