Camel Coat
The camel coat is classic that never fails to get stale in my wardrobe… Above, I went for a darker take on this classic piece to switch it up, but you can opt for the more traditional caramel hue. It’s a foolproof coat since it works for every occasion whether you’re headed to the office or out for date night. If I could only wear one coat for the rest of my life, this one would probably be it.

Lightweight Turtleneck
If you’re as much of a layering fanatic as I am, a lightweight turtleneck will take you beyond winter into next year. This is easily the most versatile piece in anyone’s winter wardrobe since it can be worn under dresses, button downs, and camisoles. You can also wear it with high waisted jeans and it looks ultra sleek and chic.

While expensive, you can rely on this trustee piece to keep you snug and cozy. And as long as you properly care for it, it’ll last you through several winters, making the cost per wear super low!

High Waisted Pants
Jeans are a no-brainer but if you’re looking for alternatives, high-waisted pants will definitely freshen up your winter wardrobe. I love bringing cropped wide legs, kick flares, and faux leather pants into the mix. When it comes to trousers, look for modern details such as a wide cuff or a ruffled waist – they’re so much fun to style.

Romantic Dress
Once the cold sets in, romantic dresses are perfect for formals or nights out. Think snowy white shades, dark florals, and pretty pleats or ruffles. You can always style a romantic dress with with chunky knits and heavy-duty boots.
I also love wrap dresses because they can be worn in so many different ways. You can even layer them over jeans as a robe. Plus, they never go out of style. Take this piece into spring with a pair of minimal strappy heels.

White boots have been trending for seasons now, but they still seem to fall far off most people’s wishlist.
