Getting dressed for work is one thing. Getting dressed for work when it’s absolutely freezing outside adds entirely new challenges.
You have to wear a big coat, which basically covers up your entire work outfit that you carefully curated the night before. And you can’t wear cute sandals or stiletto heels without the risk of slipping on ice. In spite of this, you can still look really cute for the office, while being super warm.
Read ahead for five fashionable work outfit ideas for winter.
Winter Work Outfit Idea #1
The grey pinstripe vest dress is an absolute stunner.
To make this outfit more winter appropriate, pair the dress with a long-sleeved pussy bow blouse. The delicate blouse will complement the dress’s tailored design.
Complete your winter work outfit with a pair of fleece-lined tights or leggings. Oh, and don’t forget a pair of comfortable matching boots. If you don’t like to wear heels to the office, consider a block heel or even a cute pair of flat knee-high boots.
Winter Outfit Idea #2
The pinstripe suit is a classic office essential. However, it can sometimes come across as ‘stuffy.’ To transform the traditional suit into a fashion-forward ensemble, pair it with a silky pussy-bow blouse. Finish the outfit with ultra-chic patent leather shoes.
This winter work attire is versatile enough to go from the boardroom to an after-work dinner with friends.
Winter Work Outfit Idea #3
Who says a white button down has to be boring? Breathe new life into this office staple by pairing it with bold pieces.
Consider incorporating a longline tailored vest in a vibrant, unexpected hue. The vest will not only help to prevent the look from feeling boxy. But it’ll also have everyone in the office ask you where you buy your clothes.
Winter Work Outfit Idea #4
The white button down and plaid pants combo is one I’m sure you’ve seen before. It’s a nice classic look that is appropriate for most office spaces. You can easily add visual interest to this neutral winter work outfit through the use of color.
Consider pairing the look with a colorful leather moto jacket. A leather moto jacket is a stylish unexpected addition to the look. Plus, a leather jacket will keep you warm. We all know office buildings can get chilly during the colder months.
If you don’t like the idea of a moto jacket, consider going with a traditional blazer in a fun print.
Winter Work Outfit Idea #5
You can absolutely wear a basic tee to work. To make your tee feel less weekend and more Monday-Friday, simply pair your tee with a structured blazer. A blazer can instantly dress up just about any outfit.
Complete you winter work outfit with a long leather skirt, suede boots, and of course a pair of tights. The outfit so simplistic, yet so chic.
