Dresses:
Dresses can be a bit tricky to wear in winter for work — it’s important to wear them in a way that’s warm enough. Do this by wearing dresses that have more coverage (longer hemlines, longer sleeves), heavier fabrics (thick knits, wool), layering (shirts or sweaters under, sweaters or jackets over), and warm shoes (pumps, boots). Wear dresses in structured, polished cuts like shifts and A-lines. Or, go with looser, softer cuts but sharpen them by adding a polished coat, a belt, or layering a button down!
Jumpsuits:
A winter-appropriate jumpsuit looks great for the office! It’s an easy to wear chic look for work.
Skirts:
Skirts in polished styles are so great for the office in winter! There are many options — you can go with a satin or chiffon midi skirt, a neat pencil skirt in a gray knit or black leather, or a tweed or sweater mini paired with tights and boots.
Pants:
Great winter trousers are perfect for the chilly weather! They are easy to pair with blouses and sweaters. A warm pair of winter wide-leg pants with a turtleneck sweater can definitely be a winter work wardrobe for you!
Jeans:
You can wear jeans to work in the winter! Since jeans have a casual vibe, style them with tops and jackets that have a strong professional feel to balance them out.
