It feels like only yesterday that the changing colors of the leaves have just started but in reality, winter is just around the corner. This means that it is time to give our closet a major overhaul. Fashion trends come and go, and you may have noticed that many of these trends come back in a full circle.
Staying warm and looking stylish is not as easy as it looks. Finding the right balance between choosing casual winter outfits and keeping your body nice and warm can be a little challenging. Thus, it is necessary to get the basics right. If you are looking for inspiration to give your wardrobe an update for the coming winter season, you are at the right place. Ahead are some ideas that will ensure you step out in the cold with style.
Oversized Outerwear
From puffer coats to trenches and blazers, there is one thing that is clear- oversized outerwear is most in fashion. Many designers have been featuring comfortable and boxy oversized blazers on their runways. These larger-than-life jackets are one trend that you can just throw over any outfit in your wardrobe.
Tonal Dressing
Tonal dressing is the art of dressing from top to toe in one single color. It can also be a varying shade of the same color. Besides making you look polished and put-together, tonal dressing also has an elongating effect as it gives the illusion of being taller and more elegant. For winter, you can choose whatever color you want like black, grey, taupe, or camel.
Chunky Knitwear
This is of course an obvious choice for winter. Cozy, oversized knit is one of the key trends of Winter 2022. What’s best about it is that this statement knitwear is a standalone piece. You don’t have to do anything else to elevate the look. Just throw on your favorite jeans or pants or a midi skirt or even a maxi dress and put on a pair of boots and you have got yourself a great winter outfit.
Leather
The leather jacket is another winter wardrobe essential and we probably own a leather jacket or two already. Besides jackets, there is a variety of leather apparel whether genuine or faux type. Leather is a wonderful way to inject some interest into an outfit. The smooth texture complements cotton and knits. You can throw on a leather jacket with denim or a maxi dress for a chic look.
Chunky Boots
The preferred shoe staple – chunky boots are having a particularly major moment. This is one shoe trend that is still going strong. Chunky boots have been on every runway like Prada and seen on the feet of trendsetters like Bella Hadid. Just open your TikTok and Instagram feeds, and you will be able to spot them. The best pair of chunky boots can be worn with miniskirts or straight-leg pants. They are definitely a winter wardrobe essential that can withstand the elements while giving you a fashion-forward vibe.
