Hey there! I'm checking in on you to see if you're feeling stuck in a winter wardrobe rut as the temperatures continue to drop.
Do you keep reaching for the same sweatpants and sweatshirts just to stay warm during these cold winter days?
I figured now was the perfect time to inspire a winter wardrobe refresh and share my tips on how to bundle up in style.
My goal is to help you combine cozy comfort with standout fashion moments this winter.
Weather you’re braving the cold outdoors or bundling up for a stylish winter gathering, these must-have pieces will keep you looking your best all season.
Here's my list of winter wardrobe winners for 2025:
1. A Statement Coat
During the winter season, your coat isn’t just for warmth—it’s the star of your outfit. It's the first impression your outfit makes.
Longline tailored coats, faux leather jackets, furs in bold hues, and quilted puffers with unexpected detailing are taking center stage.
Look for metallic sheens, jewel tones, pinstripes or plaid patterns to elevate your outerwear game.
Pair your statement coat with sleek leather gloves and a chunky knit scarf for a polished winter look.
Pro Tip: Opt for a long coat with a belted waist to keep warm while showing off your silhouette.
2. Sweater Weather, Reinvented
Sweaters are having a big moment in 2025, and they’re anything but basic.
No matter if you're in your 50's or 20's, a sweater is a great investment piece for your capsule wardrobe!
Think dramatic necklines, turtlenecks, and/or unique textures like cable-knit, patchwork or ribbed mohair.
Neutral tones are classic, but pops of color—especially pink, deep reds, powder blue, and green—will keep your wardrobe feeling fresh.
Pro Tip: Layer your sweater over a slip dress and add knee-high boots for a chic day-to-night ensemble.
3. Pant Power: Wide Leg Wonders
Skinny pants may be coming back into the mix, but wide leg pants are still the star this season.
From tailored wool trousers to relaxed cuff denim styles, this trend is all about balancing comfort and elegance.
High waisted wide leg cuts elongate the leg line, making them flattering for everyone.
Pro Tip: Pair a cropped sweater, high waisted cuffed wide leg trousers and heeled ankle boots for a chic of the moment look.
4. Accessory All-Stars
Winter 2025 accessories are equal parts practical and playful. (After all, we need something to look forward to during these dreary cold days!)
Oversized knit beanies, shearling-lined bucket hats, and faux fur earmuffs bring a fun edge to your cold weather outfits.
Meanwhile, chunky infinity scarves and leather handbags with chain details add a luxe touch.
Pro Tip: Statement belts are back! Use one to cinch your coat, blazer or sweater for a trendy, waist-defining effect.
5. Boots That Shine
Cold weather doesn’t mean sacrificing style when it comes to footwear.
This season’s must-haves include ankle boots in metallics and studs for extra edge.
Pro Tip: White boots add a crisp, modern vibe to any outfit.
6. Mocha Mousse Everything
According to the Pantone Color Institute, Mocha Mousse is the official color of 2025, and it’s the perfect shade to warm up your winter wardrobe.
This rich brown adds depth and sophistication to everything from coats and knitwear to accessories and footwear.
Brown is a warm shade that looks good on everyone and there are so many ways you can work it into your outfit!
So go ahead and infuse a shot of espresso into your 2025 winter wardrobe.
Any shade of brown will do and even though it's the color of the season, it's also a classic neutral that will never go out of style.
Whether you're rocking a full monochrome look or pairing Mocha Mousse with soft creams and light blues, this hue is an instant classic.
Pro Tip: Try a Mocha Mousse leather coat or a cozy knit dress for an effortlessly chic cold weather look that is particularly on trend this winter!
7. Stripes Are Back in a Big Way
Stripes are one of the most timeless patterns, but this winter, they’re getting a fresh, bold update.
Thick, graphic stripes on sweaters, scarves, and even outerwear are making a statement.
Whether you opt for a classic Breton-inspired knit or a high contrast striped coat, this trend is all about making an impact.
Pro Tip: Pair a striped sweater with wide leg pants for a modern, polished vibe, or layer a striped scarf over a neutral toned outfit to add a pop of pattern.
Winter fashion doesn’t have to be dull or bulky—this season’s trends prove that you can stay warm while making a stylish statement.
From head-turning coats to updated stripes, there’s something for everyone to love.
