Same pieces, different styles: your winter capsule wardrobe sorted

The key to your winter capsule wardrobe this season is selecting a few of the right staple pieces that can be dressed up or down, styled solo or layered. Think of these pieces as your wardrobe MVPs, they go with everything, never go out of style and are the comfort you reach for on a frosty morning.   

A classic trench coat or tailored blazer 

A well-fitting trench or blazer instantly elevates an outfit and provides that extra layer of warmth you need to keep the cool air out. Choose from our range of timeless neutral colours like beige, black or grey so that you can style them with any outfit from evening dinners to winter office days. 

A comfortable pair of closed-in shoes 

No winter capsule wardrobe is complete without the right pair of shoes to brave the cold! We’re talking a pair of boots made for walking (and brunching or shopping of course!), loafers that mean business or sneakers that you can style with literally anything. Find a comfortable pair of winter shoes that will keep your toes warm in style! Pick from knee-high and ankle boot styles to find the pair you feel would add the most to your capsule wardrobe (or try both!). Don’t forget to refresh your sock range and get yourself a pair of warm socks to wear under your new winter shoes to add extra cosy comfort. 

Timeless denim jeans 

It’s no secret that a pair of jeans should be one of the first additions to your winter capsule wardrobe. From coffee runs to casual Fridays, jeans are that one piece you’ll reach for over and over again. Choose from denim in different cuts, washes and lengths to find the pair of jeans that you can style the most ways with your other pieces. From straight-leg to wide-leg styles, the beauty of denim is in its versatility so pick a pair (or two) that you’ll reach for on repeat.  

When creating your winter capsule wardrobe, layers are your best friend. Mix and match them in endless ways to suit the weather or plans for the day. Play with proportions by pairing looser tops with slim bottoms or vice versa and don’t be afraid to mix textures or neutral tones with pops of colour! Adding layers also helps transition an outfit from day to night by simply swapping out your outerwear. Plus, those bottom layers will still get plenty of wear on their own when the weather starts to warm up. 

We love layering with fitted tanks and oversized tees as the base and then throwing a hoodie or fleece jumper over the top for warmth. For active winter days, try styling a pair of trackpants with a fitted tee and a hoodie over the top that you can peel off once you warm up.

Versatile winter skirts and dresses are the final puzzle piece to perfecting your capsule wardrobe as they can be styled many ways and dressed up or down. This will make the final part of your capsule wardrobe and help create dressier outfits that transition from day to night! Think long sleeve mini dresses and skirts with stockings or tights underneath for extra warmth on cold days. Swap out boots or sneakers from the day for kitten heels and a long coat over your midi or maxi dress for a dinner date look. The key is choosing styles that you feel incredible in and mixing them up with accessories, coats and shoes.

Find your staple pieces and have fun mixing and matching them to see what new outfits you can create and express your winter style with pieces you know you’ll love wearing time and time again.
