5 Winter Outfit Ideas To Refresh Your Wardrobe With Little Effort

Now that we’re over halfway through winter, chances are you’re running low on inspo for outfits. So, because we like to keep our looks feeling fun and fresh, we’ve gone and sourced a handful of outfits you can easily recreate, courtesy of the style set, using staples you likely already own. Here, we round up 5 fail-safe winter outfit ideas to reignite your excitement for cold-weather dressing.
1. Dress Over Jeans
Hear me out – while the ‘jeans over dresses’ trend might conjure memories of 2000s red carpets, believe it or not the unlikely duo was very much in over at Copenhagen Fashion Week. To master the look like the style set, try opting for a lightweight/sheer number over a more classic jeans and shirt pairing – finish with tonal outerwear.
2. Shirt, Sweater & Pleated Trousers
An oldie but a goodie – if you are yet to get into layering your collared shirts underneath crew neck knits, this is your sign. Team with a pair of pleated and slightly baggy trousers for a relaxed edge, along with pointed pumps and you’re good to go. Don’t forget to select a belt with a buckle that ties together your hardware details.
3. Colour Pop Jumper, Cap & Trainers
Red is the colour of the season, however, wear whichever hue makes you feel your best. If you have a pair of sneakers in the same shade, even better. Then, go for fus-free trousers, statement earrings and a cap to finish off the high-low combo perfect for coffee hangs or running errands around town.
4. Statement Coat & Jeans
Lean into 70s nostalgia with a shaggy cropped jacket teamed with straight-leg light-wash jeans and Western boots. As for accessories, go for lashings of gold – be in the form of stacked earrings, designer shades or chunky belt buckles – or, option D, all of the above.
5. Knitted Dress & Luxe Coat
The Mob Wife aesthetic might have taken over TikTok lately, but the furry-trimmed coat has been a winter wardrobe MVP for as long as we can remember. Layer yours over a high-neck knitted dress in a contrasting tone and finish with boots or a pair of flats.
