Other cheerful winter outfits on our radar also pack a powerful punch, whether that’s a statement red sweater with a cool-girl approved driving loafer or a casual blue jean paired with a crystal-embellished fashion flat. When it comes to mastering warm winter dressing, an all-in-one-outfit dress is always a chic place to start. Slip into Altuzarra’s printed shirtdress and a pair of beige boots from Khaite. Then, layer in Mango’s cropped shearling jacket. Proenza Schouler’s bright white maxi is another January dress to consider. And in this case, it’s the centerpiece of a minimalist, monochromatic all-white outfit alongside Loulou Studio’s cashmere-blend coat and Loewe’s viral Squeeze bag. On the other side of the sartorial spectrum, there’s Stella McCartney’s colorful overcoat in a bold blue. Styling-wise, a pair of heavyweight houndstooth trousers from Everlane and Róhe’s roomy knit turtleneck are sure to spark joy on even the gloomiest of days.
Below, breathe new life into your winter wardrobe with these 8 easy-to-follow outfit formulas that are all things bright and beautiful.
The Subtle Shimmer With a Classic Black Overcoat
If you haven’t already, now is the time to incorporate sequins into your everyday wardrobe. Like this totally timeless street styler, slip into Molly Goddard’s silver sequin skirt and a classic black overcoat from Róhe. Accessory wise, Khaite’s studded handbag and a pair of kitten heels from Cos are total outfit enhancements.
The Pop of Red With a Classically Cool Driving Loafer
Cherry red continues to pack the most colorful punch of all with our attention set on this crewneck sweater from Sasuphi. Double down on the hue with The Row’s red cashmere coat and a pair of baggy blue jeans from Everlane. Accessorize with several caramel-colored It items, from Anderson’s textured leather belt, a pair of classically cool driving loafers from Ann Mashburn, and The Row’s Margaux tote.
The Outstanding Outerwear Option With Double Denim
Of all the winter coats to know (and try!), Alaïa’s zebra-printed trench coat is fabulous as it is fun. Underneath this prized piece, opt for double-denim courtesy of Victoria Beckham and Magda Butrym. Meanwhile, a pair of croc-embellished Toteme boots and Saint Laurent’s patent shoulder bag are equally crucial to the final look.
The Printed Dress With a Cropped Shearling Jacket
Nothing sparks sartorial splendor during the winter months quite like a powerfully printed dress–and Altuzarra’s tie-dyed shirtdress is at the top of our shopping list. Combat the freezing temps with Mango’s cropped shearling jacket and a pair of slouchy white boots from Khaite. The Row’s suede shoulder bag in navy is a no-brainer match; the same goes for Loewe’s signature fringed scarf.

The Notable Knit With a Leather Ladylike Jacket
Bold knitwear is another easy yet impactful element to consider when sprucing up your winter wardrobe. Take Christopher John Rogers’s multicolored turtleneck, for example. It’s made even more noteworthy when styled with Loulou Studio’s leather ladylike jacket and Proenza Schouler’s belted white jeans. And to tie the entire look together, metallic flats from Mango and leather beret do the trick.
The Colorful Overcoat With a Retro Sneaker
This bright blue hue overcoat from Stella McCartney promises to put a smile on your face no matter what wintry conditions are taking place outside. And its closet cohorts are equally equipped at boosting your mood, from Everlane’s heavyweight houndstooth trousers to a snuggly turtleneck sweater from Róhe. A pair of retro sneakers from Tod’s gives it downtown appeal, while a matching beanie from Cos is its perfect mate.
The Winter White Look With a Matching Knee-High Boot
Oh, the ever-enduring allure of the all-white winter outfit! Get the quiet luxury look with Loulou Studio’s cashmere-blend double-breasted coat and Proenza Schouler’s knit maxi dress. Then, accessorize with Staud’s matching suede knee-high boots and Loewe’s Squeeze handbag in a slate gray. Of course, we can’t forget about Acne Studios’ checked scarf, either.
The Statement Blue Jean With a Fashion Flat
By remixing a pair of high-rise jeans, JW Anderson demonstrated his signature playful aesthetic–and we can’t get enough. Styling-wise, wear the daring denim with Pixie Market’s faux-fur jacket and a cable-knit crewneck from &Daughter. Khaite’s viral crystal-embellished flats are similarly statement-making; and same goes for Dries Van Noten’s metallic moon bag.
