Whether strolling the streets of Boston or New York City, there are some definite overlaps in what I reach for during the winter months. I don't know if I'd fully attribute that to the likes of each city, since I am a creature of habit no matter where I reside, but the options are chic nonetheless. My aim is to always look timeless and put together no matter what city I'm in.
This season, there are some key pieces I have been wearing on heavy rotation. Each is effortless and packs an elevated punch, including classic sweaters, dark-wash jeans, black booties, and more. Keep scrolling to check out six chic winter picks that have my attention right now.
Oversize Coats
An oversize coat instantly elevates any outfit. I like to reach for black, gray, and neutral options in a variety of timeless styles.
Camel Pieces
Any time I wear a camel piece, I receive a compliment. The timeless color gives ensembles an expensive feel.
Dark-Wash Jeans
When colder weather comes around, I find myself reaching for dark-wash denim styles. They feel dressier and more elegant. Plus, they go great with any top style.
Black Booties
I am loyal to versatile black booties, especially in comfortable flat and low-heel versions. I keep the higher styles for more formal occasions.
Classic Sweaters
How I love sweater season. There is nothing I appreciate more in fashion than a classic sweater to cozy up in. Crewnecks and turtlenecks are usually my top picks.
Woven Bags
No matter the season, a chic woven leather bag is a great idea, but there is something about adding the beautiful textured detail to a winter look.
