10 Winter Outfit Combos That Give Off "Rich Mom" Vibes With Little to No Effort
Whether or not there are actual children in your life, the "rich mom” vibe is for anyone who wants to exude elegance and confidence while maintaining comfort and practicality with their look of choice. They’re ready to take on anything the day throws at them, whether that means working, running after kids, or wining and dining—all while looking immaculate. And, as you're about to see, this applies to looks that are both dressed up and dressed down.
From suits to sweats, below, I've rounded up 10 winter-ready outfits that encompass all of the above and more. The best part, of course, is that they're fuss-free and incredibly easy to throw together.

Since starting as an intern back in 2013, Nicole Akhtarzad Eshaghpour has held several roles here at Who What Wear, and she is currently Editor-at-Large. Upon joining, she was a senior about to graduate from business school at USC. Fast-forward to 2025, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was just starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content and her Trust Me—Buy This newsletter. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to neutral, classic pieces but will always make an exception for something colorful or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a party is dressing up for one. On her downtime, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious and trying to force her husband to watch Summer House.
