Winter is just around the corner, so it’s time to upgrade with a few essentials! With these key pieces, you will be warm, stylish and you will never struggle to find something to wear before a day or night out. Plus, they are all affordable and can easily be mixed and matched as they are so diverse. Get ready to seriously upgrade your winter wardrobe this year with these essentials!
Black Jeans
Firstly, we have black jeans. Although this might seem like a boring one, having a great pair of black jeans in your wardrobe is essential for the winter months as it will be a key part of many different outfits. They can be super casual with a hoodie and trainers, a smart casual outfit with a turtleneck jumper or even a smart outfit with a white shirt and a blazer! You can start any outfit with a pair of black jeans and build it up from there, making it an absolute essential.
You could choose a skinny pair, slim fit or wide leg pair, or perhaps a couple! After all, it’s likely you’ll be wearing them pretty often over the winter months, so having two pairs will definitely be worth it. If your jeans start to fade slightly and you’d prefer them to be jet black, then you could invest in some denim dye to make use of every couple of years so you can keep wearing your jeans even after they are slightly faded! They really will look brand new.
Full Tracksuit
For days when you want to be slightly comfier, then having a full tracksuit on hand is the next essential. Not only can you wear it as a full tracksuit with trainers, but you could also pair the joggers with a t-shirt and overcoat for a nice weekend smart-casual look or you could pair the hoodie with jeans and trainers for a casual outfit that looks effortless.
To make sure you can mix and match it easily, choose a relatively simple plain tracksuit. This might be a full grey, black or nude tracksuit. For a bit more personality, choose one with a few hints of colour. When you put on a full tracksuit, you automatically look like you are stylish and well put together. On lazy days over the weekend, this is always a good thing to have!
Thick Flannel Overshirt
Next up, we have a thick flannel overshirt. When it comes to style over the winter, layering is a must, and a thick flannel overshirt will really help with this! Start with jeans and a t-shirt. Then, go in with the hoodie from your full tracksuit and a flannel overshirt. Finish the look with chelsea boots and a beanie for an effortless look that will keep you comfy and warm. For slightly less cold days, you could choose to keep it more simple with a long sleeve t-shirt and your overshirt.
Flannel overshirts won’t go out of style, especially when you choose a more neutral option like a grey and black or camel, brown and black choice. Investing in a nice flannel overshirt is the way forward for your winter wardrobe and you will make use of it year after year!
Beanie
Now that we have a couple of layers, it’s time to look at an accessory! The beauty of a beanie is that they really do go with anything. Whether you are wearing a suit or a tracksuit, if it's cold outside, you can throw on a beanie. If the rest of your wardrobe is quite monochromatic, you could choose a brighter yellow or orange beanie to bring a pop of colour to your winter looks. You can also just stick to a simple black or grey one if you want a more subtle beanie.
When you next go shopping, a beanie is a must have for the winter months! Whilst you’re there, look for a matching scarf, as you will certainly need it over the colder months (unless you live in a sunny climate of course).
Wool Suit
Next up, we have a wool suit. Even if you don’t have an occasion to go to where you need a full suit, it will certainly come in handy! Firstly, you can wear the trousers separately from the jacket, simply with a white shirt and smart black shoes. Throw on a black overcoat and you have the perfect night outfit for a dressier occasion. Another option is to pair the wool jacket with a white shirt and black jeans for a smart-casual look. Of course, you can wear it as a full suit too!
Wool suits never go out of fashion and have been a staple for decades, so you know you can keep this in your wardrobe for years and it will always look amazing!
Oversized Turtleneck
Last but not least, we have an oversized turtleneck. Having a big, cosy and comfy item in your wardrobe is absolutely essential and this is the perfect thing for it! Wearing slightly oversized items is completely in style and it is perfect for the winter months as you can layer with plenty of things underneath.
With this one, keep it simple with jeans and boots. A white oversized turtleneck and brown leather boots is a wonderful combination that is timeless! This is a classic look so there is no need to go overboard with anything!
