If you have been following us for some time, you are already familiar with the concept of a capsule wardrobe: a closet filled with items that can be mixed and matched to create a variety of outfits, providing a permanent solution to your “I don’t know what to wear today” dilemma.
It’s no surprise that winter is not the easiest season to dress for. Often, staying warm takes priority over style (especially on freezing cold days), and fashion tends to take a back seat until spring arrives. But we refuse to let that be the case any longer.
While winter may require a bit more planning than other seasons, incorporating some layering pieces, weather-appropriate footwear, and outerwear that you actually enjoy wearing into your wardrobe can help you navigate the coldest season in style. Ready to give winter dressing a whole new meaning? You don’t have to look any further than our 2022 winter capsule wardrobe.
On a Casual Saturday

We have a little secret to share: the sherpa toggle coat is one of the key pieces of 2022. When you think back on this winter next year, you’ll remember it as the season defined by the cozy-chic coat that everyone couldn’t get enough of. Embrace the trend and let it speak for itself by layering it over jeans and a basic long-sleeve for an effortless, weekend-ready look that you can rely on time and time again.
Out to Dinner

Having a coat that exudes sophistication is a winter essential, making a classic camel coat a no-brainer. For a dinner out, wrap up in your leather pants, a cozy sweater, and complete the look with lug-soled boots and your camel coat. It’s the perfect blend of elevated casual without appearing to be trying too hard.
To Brunch with Friends

The key to surviving winter? Infusing some color into your outfits. Opting for colorful accessories requires less commitment than purchasing a colorful coat but still makes a statement. Instead of sticking to neutrals, choose a statement beanie and scarf to inject a bit of joy into your ensemble every day.
To Happy Hour
top (plus) | pants (plus) | blazer (plus) | boots
Uncertain about what to wear out when it’s freezing cold? Opting for a couple of tops suitable for a night out while still being winter-appropriate is your best bet. This twist top in a fun silver shade is anything but dull, especially when paired with leather pants. If the temperatures allow, add a wool blazer that you can take off when you arrive at the bar.
To the Office
coat (plus)| dress (plus) | bag | boots
Dresses are the ultimate office attire regardless of the season, and knee-high boots are the best way to pull off a dress in winter. If it’s particularly cold, layer a pair of tights underneath to ensure no skin is exposed (and keep yourself warm in case of a chilly breeze). Complete the look with a camel coat and your favorite tote, and you’ve got yourself a winter office uniform.
