Winter Wardrobe - The Essentials

It's September and in my eyes Winter has come.

I've already donned the Winter boots and the big coat and already looking forward at the new season. The Summer clothes have been packed away and the Winter wardobe has made a return. And with that in mind, we've put together our AW17 wardrobe essentials.

It's time to embrace the cold and start layering up.

 1. The Coat

  
Textured Coat, Zara, £95.99

 First things first, you need a solid coat. One that'll keep you all warm and toasty on the walk to the tube station but also one that won't be too hot on the tube itself. Biker jackets, trench, puffa and fur are all the rage this season. One tip we'll give you is go for something different - try a colour that you wouldn't normally wear. Either splash out on a coat you can wear year to year or opt for what's trending this season.

2. The Ankle Boot

 
ALFIE Buckle Boot, Topshop, £89

The trusty ankle boot, the first thing on our Winter shopping list. Whether you prefer a heeled boot or a good old biker boot, you really cannot go wrong. We're loving the embellishment on boots this year, from buckles to pearls, it's time to step up your boot game.

3. Knitwear

 
Free People Wide Neck Oversized Jumper, ASOS, £128

The more oversized, the better. Winter is all about layering and keeping cosy and a nice chunky knit will do just the job. This season go for bold colours including colour of the season, red, as you'll be sure to stand out in the crowd.

4. Leather & Vinyl

 
Vinyl pinafore dress, MANGO, £35.99

Probably the material that we associate best with colder months, leather or vinyl, has to be a go-to. Skirts, trousers, pinafores, dunagrees, coats, dresses... the possibilities are endless!

5. The Poloneck

 
Polo neck sweater with pearly buttons, ZARA, £19.99

A staple item of any wardrobe, the classic black polo neck. Pair with any skirt or any jean and you're good to go, they're really isn't much else to say.

6. The Tea Dress

 
White floral print tea dress, New Look, £27.99

We've mentioned the tea dress before as a staple item of Summer, but who's to say that we should say goodbye to every thing in our SS17 wardrobe. Perfect to wear from day-to-night, pair with trainers in the day and swap for a chunky boot in the evening. For this season we will say, go for darker, warmer prints instead of bold and in your face.

7. The Scarf 
  
 
ASOS Supersoft Long Woven Scarf with Tassels, ASOS, £12

To complete any look, the best thing you can do is accessorise. To keep your face and neck warm in those chilly winds a chunky scarf can do no wrong. 


So there you have it, our AW17 wardrobe essentials. 

Time to get spending ladies!
