Brrr, is it cold outside or what? This frigid weather has me bundling up in my warmest winter coats lately. But just because it’s cold doesn’t mean we can’t still look cute and stylish, mes amies!
Like you, I’m a busy woman in my 40s who wants to look put together but doesn’t always have tons of time to figure out outfits.
I find choosing a warm, practical yet fashionable coat is the key to quick and easy cold weather style. Here are my tips for 3 of my favorite coat styles and how to wear them:
Long Down Coats
These puffy, pillowy jackets are like wrapping yourself in a fluffy blanket! A knee-length down coat in a fun color looks so cozy with jeans, boots, and a sweater layered underneath. I also adore wearing mine over dresses or skirts with fleece-lined tights for an unexpected combo.
To balance the bulk on top, go for fitted items on the lower half like skinny jeans or leggings. Add warmth with boots, scarves and beanies.
And here is an inspiration for a ready-to-wear look that looks so stylish and yet is really warm and comfortable to wear.
The range for down coats is really wide – you can choose this from NA-KD or this one, or this one here, or this one from Walmart, or this one from Amazon.
Take two of the same sweaters, like this really warm wool one from H&M or this mohair one from Pomandere.
If it’s not that cold, try these Vejas, these Adiddas Samba or these UGS for cold days.
And add accents with cap, gloves and bag.
Wool Coats
For a polished city vibe, you can’t beat tailored wool coats in solids or houndstooth. They instantly make you look put together.
Long wool coats are so chic over everything from slacks or dresses to leggings and skirts. Since wool coats have shape, balance them out with looser fits underneath.
I especially love an oversized sweater or scarf peeking out from a fitted wool coat. Elevate the look with heeled boots, sleek hair and pretty earrings.
This ready-to-wear combo proves you can be comfortable and look chic at the same time for cold weather.
If you can it’s better to invest in really good and quality coat – this navy wool coat or this black wool coat that will live forever.
Also a really good investment is a pair of straight jeans that will always be in style: like these from Arket or this option from Mango.
As well as these sweaters: Mock-Neck Sweater from OtherStories or this pure cashmere jumper from Cos.
This belt looks the same and this one is more of that classic chic that goes with everything.
And bag, boots and glasses of course)))
Or you can try this more relaxed option, but this outfit still manages to be both fashionable and cozy for cold weather (especially if you wear thermal underwear underneath).
Try this warm wool black jacket or this affordable one from H&M or maybe this beige Double-Breasted Wool Jacket.
Add really warm Wool Wide Leg Pants or these affordable options from H&M and from Nelly (but in this case don’t forget thermal underwear underneath))).
Plus these sweaters: Mock-Neck Sweater from OtherStories or this pure cashmere jumper from Cos.
If it’s not that cold, try these Vejas, these Adiddas Samba or these UGS for cold days.
And of course hat from Arket and a bag from Arket.
Shearling Coats
For the ultimate in coziness, snuggle up in a shearling or sheepskin coat. They’re soft and fuzzy inside like a blanket!
Shearling coats have a casual vibe that pairs perfectly with laidback jeans, sweaters and sneakers. You’ll be so comfy running errands yet still look stylish.
Plus, you always have a choice – natural or eco-friendly (sometimes you can’t tell the difference these days).
Layer your shearling coat over hoodies, leggings and beanies on super cold days. This texture adds a fun tactile element to any winter outfit.
Check out this ready-to-wear look that pulls off stylish and warm so effortlessly for chilly days.
You can try this really affordable shearling jacket from Amazon and pair it with comfy UGS.
The best option is really warm and natural Jumpsuit in Wool-Cashmere or this one from Naked, or you can combine these pants and a sweater from Mango (but better to wear thermal underwear then).
Don’t forget the warm mittens and this hat from Arket (it’s just perfect and will be in style for many years). And both bags fit perfectly here))).
Now you have some tips for building foolproof cold weather outfits around practical winter coats. Stay cozy, mes belles!
