It can be all too easy when temperatures drop to a certain level to lean on the same outfits you have for the past few years, huddling up in neutral knitwear and the same black boots. While you can't beat a classic, if you're looking for some new winter combinations, the likes of Caroline Lin, Dawn Tan and more have been wearing a number of practical yet interesting looks you too will be able to wear on repeat until early next year––yes, we're already thinking ahead to 2025 looks.
Tailoring is a great choice if you're looking for a polished winter look. Just add a wool coat for extra warmth.
Many of these key items you'll already own, such as roll necks jumpers and classic blazers, but you can make your winter wardrobe more 2025 with cream boots, field jackets and leather trousers. Just because you have to make sensible choices doesn't mean you have to spend the next three months in boring and unadventurous outfits.
These are the 13 winter outfit ideas and combinations that you can turn to as the weather gets cooler.
13 Winter Outfit Ideas You Can Wear for the Next 6 Months:
1. SUEDE JACKET + JUMPER + MAXI SKIRT
Style Notes: If you invest in one thing this season, make it a suede jacket. The style of the season, it'll be your cover-up of choice for so many outfits. But I love it with a maxi skirt.
Shop the Look:
This high street hero item is selling out at record speed.
A forever buy.
It's all about those longer lengths as temperatures drop.
This affordable accessory will make any outfit look more chic.
2. V-NECK JUMPER + KNIT SCARF + MIDI SKIRT
Style Notes: No need to pack away all your warm-weather separates, instead, just do some clever layering. Love how Dawn has added a cosy jumper and knit scarf to a white midi skirt to make it winter-ready.
Shop the Look:
You'll bring this back out each and every year.
One of the best cashmere scarves around.
It also comes in black.
Just add tights.
3. OVERSIZED COAT + SCARF + KITTEN HEELS
Style Notes: See how a silk scarf creates a whole new fancy feel to a simple coat and jeans look? It'll keep the wind away away from your ears, too.
Shop the Look:
So many styling opportunities to be had.
This is bound to sell out.
The perfect fit.
They'll elevate any outfit.
4. STRIPED SHIRT + WIDE-LEG JEANS + JUMPER
Style Notes: Let this be your reminder that a "just in case" jumper will be your best friend from now on. Chic around your shoulders, it'll be there ready and waiting over your classic outfit whenever it gets chilly.
Shop the Look:
You'll reach for this no matter the season.
A classic to love all season.
Love the contrasting cuffs on this one.
The bigger the better.
Obsessed.
5. FAUX FUR COAT + TAILORED TROUSERS + LOAFERS
Style Notes: When it comes to cold weather dressing, a faux fur coat is always a safe bet. To add an elevated twist, pair with tailored trousers and smart loafers.
Shop the Look:
As cosy as it looks.
A wardrobe staple.
These are seriously sleek.
A great vintage find.
6. TIGHTS + MINI SKIRT + CABLE KNIT JUMPER + KNEE-HIGH BOOTS
Style Notes: Winter dressing isn't all jeans and jumpers, mini skirts can also work with the handy addition of tights and knee-high boots. Add a chic cable-knit sweater (and a coat if it's really cold) and you're good to go.
Shop the Look:
&Daughter always has the best knitwear.
A preppy touch.
Good tights are a winter essential.
Such a comfy heel height.
7. SCARF KNIT + SUEDE BAG + FLATS
Style Notes: The scarf knit is winter's perfect hybrid piece, merging the function of a cosy scarf with the structure of a much needed knit. Pair this look with a soft suede bag for texture, and add some flats to bring subtle contrast to your winter look.
Shop the Look:
This coat is an editor staple at this point.
These trousers will elevate any outfit
Suede bags are still huge news.
The perfect mix of comfy and chic.
8. LONG COAT + LEATHER TROUSERS
Style Notes: A classic ensemble, sure. But add a pair of fancy heels, and you've got the ideal going-out winter look.
Shop the Look:
The Frankie Shop brings this classic back each year.
The ultimate layering piece.
A great vegan leather style.
Chic.
9. FIELD JACKET + VEST TOP + COMFY TROUSERS
Style Notes: A field jacket is the perfect year-round style, and it's sticking around for next year. For winter, just layer over chunky knits and wear with comfy trousers and switch to socks and boots.
Shop the Look:
Well done, COS.
Guaranteed to liven up any look.
Every wardrobe should have a great pair of black comfy trousers.
These are still a fashion-person favourite.
10. PASTEL COAT + BALLET FLATS
Style Notes: Ballet flats are still huge news, no matter the season. Embrace the dainty feel of these shoes by pairing them with a soft pastel coat for a pretty take on cold-weather dressing.
Shop the Look:
This will get compliments wherever you go.
I love the look of chunky socks with ballet flats.
Keep the soft feel going with a light pink pumps.
You needn't save your best jewels for after-dark only.
11. ARGYLE KNIT + JEANS + FLUFFY SHOES
Style Notes: A argyle cardi is a classic staple that never goes out of style, adding warmth and sophistication to any outfit. Blue jeans keep the look grounded and seasonally appropriate, while cosy flat shoes finish off the outfit with a touch of luxury that’s both casual and refined.
Shop the Look:
Wear loose, or cinch with the belt.
Fashion editors are huge fans of Agolde's denim––for good reason.
So fun!
12. MINI DRESS + SCARF + LOAFERS
Style Notes: There's nothing wrong with this tried-and-tested classic outfit. It's forever chic, and you'll always find other pieces in your wardrobe to wear it with.
Shop the Look:
Forever timeless.
The styling possibilities are endless.
Pared-back shoes are back for 2024.
13. KNITTED DRESS + WOOL BLAZER + KNEE-HIGH BOOTS
Style Notes: A knitted dress is the perfect office-to-dinner outfit. Like Annabel, pair yours with burgundy and brown luxe accessories like knee-high boots and a bowling bag before finishing the look off with a wool blazer. Perfection!
Shop the Look:
If I could have any wool blazer this year, it would be this one. Just stunning and so timeless.
You can also wear this with trainers at the weekend.
I love a knee-high boot with a mini skirt and tights too.
Stunning.
