When it comes to creating the ultimate wardrobe, we always turn to the staples, that is, our basic everyday wardrobe. 

You need wardrobe staples day in and day out because they create the foundation of every outfit. Think of them as a solid foundation on which rests the building that is your ensemble. Introduce and eliminate elements as per your liking to create a unique and refreshing look every time. Perhaps that is why styling is so much fun.

For the winter and fall seasons, staying warm the top priority. While this would mean compromising on style because style and comfort are not the best of friends, we have the perfect middle-ground for you. The following is a list of must-have fall and winter fashion staples that every girl needs in her arsenal.

Skinny Jeans

Skinny jeans are a necessity all year round, regardless of the season. Their curve-hugging cuts flatter all shapes and body types. You could fall anywhere on the spectrum of lean to curvy and rock skinny jeans like nobody’s business.

Skinny jeans are especially great for the colder months as their streamline fit prevents airflow and creates warmth. Style them with anything from casual tees and jackets to formal blouses and blazers; you can never go wrong with skinny jeans. 

Cardigan

Cardigans feel like a hug. Warm, comfy, and versatile; what’s not to love about them? You can sport them in various social settings because they are just as elegant and sophisticated as they are cozy and warm. You can dress your cardigan up or tone it down with merely a few accessories, and you shall be sorted.

If you are looking to rock that classic winter cardigan look this chilly season, wear your cardigan over a collared button-down dress shirt paired with something like a skirt or a pair of jeans.

Hat

The fall and winter season is ideal for hats. The perfect hats for the season are beanies. Warm and snuggly but super trendy and hip, beanies are nothing short of perfect. Having a bad hair day? Just tuck it all under a beanie.

Another hot favorite for casual wear owing to the popularity of athleisure is baseball caps. They look fantastic paired with skinny jeans, a relaxed bomber jacket, and maybe some white sneakers.

You can try your luck with something like wide-brimmed hats too. Confident, sexy, and oh-so-chic, wide-brimmed hats are the perfect amalgamation of vintage simplicity and extravagant modernity.

Statement Coat

What is the fall and wintertime without a coat even? Outerwear is a necessity as opposed to a fashion choice during the colder months. Your selection of outerwear is super important because it is the first thing anyone notices when they see you. Therefore, you can choose to make a bold statement with your outerwear or blend in with the crowd with a muted and understated pick.

We suggest investing in a luxe neutral-toned overcoat. Our advice would be to keep it simple and versatile, so styling is a no-brainer.

If you wish to step away from the tried and tested favorites, try your luck with a plaid overcoat. Warm and rustic, plaid coats are a fantastic mix of classic and contemporary. If not plaid, go all out with a sexy animal printed number.

Boots

Knee-high, ankle, or mid-length; boots come in a wide variety of styles. Boots are the shoes designed for the colder month as they are chic, warm, versatile, and comfortable.

If you opt for knee-high boots, style them with a fitted dress or over skinny jeans and a turtleneck. Ankle boots work well with just about everything, be it a dress, pants, shorts, or a skirt. Your ankle boots are that pair of shoes you can always fall back on without thinking twice.

Knit Dress

Knit dresses are necessary for the colder months. Their silhouette flatters all shapes and body types, and they pair brilliantly well with different accessories. Style them with ankle boots and a bomber jacket, knee-high boots, and a leather jacket, or perhaps with leggings, boots, and an overcoat; rest assured, they will look good anyway.

Invest in a selection of neutral-toned knit dresses such as black, white, charcoal grey, beige, maroon, deep brown, burnt mustard, and more.

Winter Scarves

Winter winds can be very unforgiving. To stay warm and protected, scarves are a must. Scarves are the ultimate winter accessory as they are warm, comfy, versatile, and easy to style. Invest in a handful of colors, designs, and cuts.

Our favorite fabrics to work with are wool, cashmere, and silk—the former two work best for everyday wear in winters. The latter option is best catered to formal events.

Turtlenecks

Turtlenecks just also make you look like you walked out of a Christmas movie.

Excellent for layering, warm, and super comfortable, turtlenecks work in all kinds of social settings. If you want to be casually comfortable this season, put turtlenecks on the top of your list of things to buy

Leather Jacket

A leather jacket is a style essential you need all year round. Fantastic for that weird chilly in-between weather, and when the temperatures drop, leather jackets are a worthy investment that will last you for years to come.  

What makes leather jackets so incredible is their versatility. You can literally wear them over anything, and it will look hot and on-trend. They possess the innate ability to transform any outfit and take it to the next level.

Leather jackets come in an array of styles, each with its own unique outlook and aura. Find the leather jacket style that vibes best with yours from the women’s leather jacket collection and rock them like a badass this season.

Hoodies

Finally, let us move on to hoodies. Warm, cozy, and effortless, hoodies basically carry themselves.

Hoodies can be rocked on their own or styled with other pieces. Be it a pair of jeans and a tee or joggers and a tank top; hoodies just always look good without fail.
