10 Timeless Pieces to Keep You Warm and Chic All Season
NOTE: This post is geared to those of us who live in colder climates. If your weather is more moderate, my Fall Wardrobe Essentials might be more relevant, but you may still find some helpful tips here.
We all have different lifestyles needs, so I try to keep this list fairly general, but feel free to tweak these items to suit your needs. I spend most days at home, so my winter wardrobe leans more casual, with just a few dressier options for special occasions. And remember: considering cost per wear helps you make smart choices and get the most out of your budget!
1. Classic Wool Coat

A classic wool coat earns the top spot on this list for its versatility and ability to elevate almost any outfit. It’s perfect for layering over workwear or a sweater dress, but it’s equally chic with jeans and a sweater. You can even throw it on with leggings and a hoodie for that effortless off-duty vibe. Whether you’re heading to the office, out to dinner, or running errands, adding a wool coat will keep you looking polished and put together.
STYLE TIP: Matching your coat to your hair color is an easy way to elevate your look. I tend to favor black coats because they complement my hair, while blondes might prefer camel or winter white. Of course, there’s no reason why you can’t have both! I wear my camel J.Crew Daphne Topcoat quite a lot, but I wouldn’t want to be without my black Andrew Marc Bouclé Wool Coat.
