7 Stylish Winter Outfits to Wear When You Take That Snowstorm Selfie

There's no avoiding layers if you want to stay warm. Fashion-girls start with a leopard coat, below that, a leather jacket or checked blazer to contrast the animal print. One more layer down, you've got a cashmere or wool sweater paired with a skirt. Ankle boots and tights make for the perfect finishing touches.

Shop the pieces: 1. Court & Rowe blazer, $189; 2. Kendall + Kylie leopard coat, $385; 3. RAILS sweater, $198; 4. H&M tights, $10; 5. Taylor + Thomas boots, $585; 6. Gucci skirt, $1,700

For those still in denial that summer is truly over, a fun floral puffer might ease your pain. It's such a statement piece that you can go subtle with your other items, like black skinny jeans and Gola kicks. A white crossbody bag completes your street style–worthy #OOTD.

Shop the pieces: 1. I Blues down jacket, $234; 2. Ksubi x Kendall jeans, $190; 3. DeMellier white bag, $231; 4. Gola high trainers, $65

Knit pants have the comfort of sweats, but a more elevated finish. Opt for similarly colored separates to create a matching set. Then, throw on an oversize blazer and swap your couch slippers for a pair of sock boots. The ensemble looks smart and sophisticated, while remaining as comfy as PJs. Sunglasses optional.

Shop the pieces: 1. Linda Farrow sunglasses, $749; 2. State cashmere top, $120; 3. State cashmere bottoms, $110; 4. Something Navy blazer, $71; 5. Miu Miu knit boots, $850

Stand out in a sea of black coats with a metallic jacket. This season you'll find chrome splashed on shearling outerwear and puffers, giving you plenty of opportunities to shine—literally. Take a cue from fashion influencer and designer Chiara Ferragni and style yours with an all-black ensemble consisting of a hoodie and skinny jeans. You don't need to over accessorize in this case, sneaks and a chic bag will do.

Shop the pieces: 1. Pinko faux fur coat, $815; 2. Ninety Percent hoodie, $180; 3. 7 for All Mankind black jeans, $170; 4. Club Monaco sneakers, $130

There's no rule that says you can't wear springtime colors in the winter. Build an outfit around a pastel-colored coat (winter blues, anyone?), matching your earrings and shoes to your outerwear. If you're feeling brave, tuck your sweater into a leather miniskirt sans tights. Bonus: The pastel coat transitions seamlessly from winter to spring.

Shop the pieces: 1. Chloé cashmere sweater, $1,350; 2. L'Autre Chose coat, $435; 3. Versace croc skirt, $1,850; 4. Monica Vinader x Caroline Issa earrings, $195; 5. River Island boots, $90; 6. Stella McCartney bag, $650

There’s room in your outfit for two, even three, types of busy prints. Mismatching is in and no one will question your choices for mixing plaid and animal prints—if they do, just say you were inspired by the runways of fashion week. The trick to pulling off this look is styling similar or complementary colors together, so start off with neutral-colored printed tops, dresses, and outerwear. Once you’ve got the hang of pairing different prints together, you can step it up with brighter and even louder designs.

Shop the pieces: 1. RIXO dress, $450; 2. Kendall + Kylie plaid coat, $385; 3. Topshop jeans, $70; 4. MICHAEL Michael Kors backpack, $224; 5. Everlane glove boot, $155

You rely on jeans all winter, so why not invest in a denim jumpsuit? This one-piece protects you from the cold, looks great with any boot—my favorite is the cowboy style from Ganni—and is compatible with all outerwear, from a beige trench to a furry coat. Top off with a cowboy bucket hat for a less literal interpretation of the wild wild west.

Shop the pieces: 1. & Other Stories denim jumpsuit, $99; 2. Charlotte Simone bucket hat, $95; 3. MCM leather crossbody bag, $1,390; 4. Ganni texas boots, $585
