Cold weather is on the horizon, and we’re more than ready to pull out the oversize jackets and cozy sweaters. The days ahead promise plenty of transitional weather that can make dressing while staying comfortable tricky. (How many layers is too many?!) If you’re also scratching your head over what to wear in 50-degree weather, we have a few ideas.
My Instagram saved folder is chock-full of fashion inspiration, so when it came time to gear up for the colder months, I knew I had to take notes from my favorite fashion girls on how to dress for the confusing weather ahead. Below are 15 foolproof outfits to wear for a fall or winter day that’s a bit brisk but not full-on freezing. You’ll find plenty of classic coats, trendy puffers, and cool sweaters amongst the mix of outfits. Plus, shop cool pieces that make layering a cinch.
Printed puffers are trending high this season, and I love our Target collection’s houndstooth version.
It’s no secret that when the colder months start, plaid is a trend you can’t avoid. I love how Kellie paired hers with a classic pair of white sneakers for a casual yet forward look.
When in doubt, go tonal. Aimee does an all-over neutral look so well by pairing a camel sweater with coordinating coat and trousers.
I love leather blazers, but I’m leaning towards adding a leather coat into my wardrobe next. Pair it with your favorite pair of jeans or take notes from Alyssa with funky printed pants.
Leave it to Ganni to make a denim jacket that also provides optimal warmth. Go oversized on your denim jacket to pair with your favorite sweater to keep warm.
When I found out that leather puffers exist, I instantly became obsessed. They add a cooler vibe to the puffers you always kept, especially in an all-black ensemble.
A trench coat paired with trousers and sneakers is a classic outfit that will never go out of style.
I love a good statement coat, as it’s an easy way to add a trend-forward piece over your jeans. Plus, it’ll undoubtedly keep you warm.
You can still wear your favorite tees in the colder weather, don’t fret. Just make sure to add a thick coat on top.
Pair a black coat over your jeans for a sleek ensemble.
Layer a sweater vest under your coat to give your outfit more dimension, and of course, warmth.
Demi is based in Chicago, so she knows a thing or two about dressing for the lower temperatures. A fur-accented jacket makes for the perfect statement piece to an otherwise minimal outfit.
Can you really ever go wrong with a camel coat? It’s a piece that I think you’ll keep for years.
If you’re not one for puffer jackets, a puffer vest is an easy way to layer over your favorite sweaters.
