The holidays may be over, but we still have plenty of chilly weeks left to brave. And now that we’re back in the swing of things with work, family, and home life, it’s nice to have a bit of simplicity without sacrificing style, especially when it comes to our wardrobes. For this post, we’ll be presenting you with some fresh, impactful winter pieces to incorporate into your closet before we say goodbye to winter and hello to spring, so let’s get started!
The Cape
The Cape
The popular poncho style coat has been all the rage for cold weather wardrobes and is definitely a piece we recommend. Thanks to the selection on Lyst, we’ve discovered this beautiful black Nayla zip front cape from Bebe. The wool blend cape can be dressed up or down and is perfect for the office or the weekend. Layer this over long sleeve tops and pair with a variety of bottoms. From skirts to dresses to trousers, this coat would look great with nearly everything.
The Dress
The Dress
A knit dress is always a welcome staple in a woman’s winter wardrobe. They’re flattering, simple, easy, comfortable, and stylish. The cable-knit Jack sweater dress from BB Dakota is another piece that can easily go from running errands to working at the office and then to having dinner and drinks. Pair it with leggings and knee-high boots, or alone with pumps to show off a little leg. Layer long vests or coats over top, and add a belt around the waist for additional interest. It's easy to see why the versatile and cozy sweater dress is a must-have. And if you need a little celeb style inspiration on how best to wear one, then check out this article from Marie Claire.
The Jeans
The Jeans
We can always use another trusty pair of jeans that fit and flatter our curves, and the blue Nouveau New York dark wash skinny jean from 7 For All Mankind is a great investment as part of your winter wardrobe and beyond. The dark wash looks great with everything and can be dressed up for evenings out, while the cut is flattering and would work well with a variety of boots—knee-high, ankle, combat, etc.—as well as pumps, sandals, and flats.
The Boots
The Boots
An outfit isn’t complete without the perfect shoes, but with so many to choose from it can be difficult to narrow down the selection. Knee-high boots are definitely a wise choice when it comes to winter footwear, which is why we’ve shared these gorgeous black Valatie high smart long boots from Moda In Pelle. The block heel gives them a sexy and feminine vibe without the formality of a stiletto. Also, depending on what you pair them with, this boot could easily be worn for a multitude of occasions, including in a professional setting. If you’re at a loss for styling ideas, then check out this helpful how-to piece from Harper’s Bazaar.

Not only will these four items help you simplify your wardrobe, they will also ensure that you finish the season looking and feeling great.
