Dressing from your winter capsule wardrobe can help speed up your mornings—especially when you’re getting ready without much light on those dark winter mornings. Because sometimes the more choices we have, the harder the decision becomes, which is why creating a capsule wardrobe any time of year is something fashion gurus swear by.
The key to creating your winter capsule wardrobe is to focus on classic cores that you will return to time and time again. This is fail-safe fashion—things that will always be in style and can be easily mixed with more on-trend items for fresh updates every season. On those ‘no clothes’ days, you’ll always have these items to fall back on.
And remember it’s an investment item, so it’s a good idea to buy good quality clothing that will last you from one year to the next. Also use classic colors, all in a similar palette to make it easier to coordinate. Doing this can help establish a signature style that also works well in a work capsule wardrobe. We would recommend starting with neutrals rather than bold colors, but if you like color then go for it. You know what works for you!
Feeling stuck where to start? Contributing fashion guru Charlie Bell and our in-house fashion editor Aleesha Badkar have rounded up nine wardrobe staples that can form the foundation for a chic winter wardrobe…
Nine parts to create a chic winter capsule wardrobe
1. Camel Coat

Coats are a worthy investment, so choose something timeless that you can wear for the coming winters. You can’t get anything more classic than a camel coat, guaranteed to rock any look.
Of course there are many different styles of camel coats that can be worn for winter, but we love this belted number which creates an eye-catching silhouette while the long a line style adds an elegant finishing touch to the look. Wear anything from a dress to jeans for a clean and polished look.
2. Straight Leg Jean

While there will always be a place for skinny jeans (and looking the most comfortable of all—jeggings) in our hearts, there’s a new favorite pair of jeans in town. Straight-leg jeans are just as versatile as skinnier jeans, but more forgiving—our new default denim. And with its vintage aesthetic, it will give any outfit a cool rock’n’roll vibe. Up the ante and pair it with leather accessories.
These Levi’s staples feature a high rise fit and are available in a variety of sizes. They’re also available in six different colors so you can choose which one best fits your wardrobe—or just save them all for different occasions!
3. Black Boots

Every woman needs a pair of chunky ankle boots on their boot cape and black is guaranteed to go with everything. Rock light dresses and skirts or wear them with jeans and knits for a cozy winter look.
These boots come with an edgy, chunky sole that will last through the winter months with sturdiness and good ankle height to keep you warm and keep air out of your feet.
4. Knitted Dress

Colder weather doesn’t mean you have to ditch your clothes. Knitted dresses are the perfect compromise, keeping you comfortable and slim.
The straight hem and fallen shoulders on this beauty give it a casual yet stylish touch. Pair it with tights and heeled boots for a table-to-dinner look.
5. Chain Necklace

Nothing completes an outfit more than some beautiful jewelery and a simple gold chain necklace is a timeless classic that will add interest to even the most understated look. Spice up a simple knit or t-shirt with this understated gem from one of our top eco-friendly jewelry brands.
For a more modern look, you can even try the layering trend by pairing it with another necklace—like a sheer chain or a simple pendant from one of your favorite affordable jewelery brands. Finish off with a pair of huggie earrings for an extra touch of street style.
6. Midi skirt

Add a feminine touch to your look with a satin midi skirt—the perfect wardrobe choice for both winter and summer.
If you like, you can add interest and choose a timeless print that will never go out of style, like leopard print. But we love plain sleek satin which can be treated as a neutral and will easily incorporate into your wardrobe. Pair it with a turtleneck and chunky boots.
7. Turtleneck Knit

The form-fitting turtleneck is the ultimate layering piece—a must-have during the colder months.
Go for a more subtle knit, rather than thick and wear it under a printed dress for extra warmth for an evening or layer it under a blazer with jeans for an easy off-duty look.
8. Runner

Thanks to our more permanent work-from-home lifestyle, the humble runner has now cemented himself firmly in our closets.
To keep your work motivation up, stay smart like this polished couple. Soft and stylish, you can dress her up in heels and a blouse when you return to the office.
9. Cream Knitting

Knitted jumpers are a solid addition to your winter wardrobe. Keep it classic in neutrals like white, cream, ecru, or even cream, and you can wear anything for extra warmth.
This one has a relaxed cut that’s ideal for layering and the turtle knit cut adds comfort for that super comfortable feeling.
