The Princess Polly Guide to Winter Outerwear
After 6 months of sporting mini dresses, crop tops and skirts here in Australia, summer has officially left the chat. But, (spoiler alert) you might not need to ditch your summer ‘fits and get an entirely new wardrobe after all!
With a few staple pieces to layer on top of the looks you already love, your winter style is just one puffer jacket away. Plus, by adding high quality outerwear to your wardrobe and utilising the pieces you already own, you’re promoting clothing circularity and sustainability - go you!
To help you decide which pieces you’re going to commit to, we’ve picked out 7 styles we’re loving RN.
Your next party look is about to be dramatic. A black faux fur coat is an essential, especially when you’re in the mood to sport a mini dress during the colder seasons. Take some inspo from Ariana Grande and pair this gorg’ outfit with some thigh high boots.
Need an outfit that has ‘I’m in charge’ vibes? The Jaycee Trench Coat screams business and will fit perfectly in the wardrobe of an everyday girlboss. Complete the look with some chunky sneakers, a tight basic top and your fav business-casual pants.
Super versatile and perf’ for dinner dates and drinks, the Morgana Blazer should be next on your list. The oversized and cool-casual style is a must for the cooler seasons and can be mixed and matched with different aesthetics. Contrast your boyfriend style blazer with some strappy statement heels for a business-meets-party ‘fit.
PU leather is an absolute vibe not only for you, but for the planet. If you don’t already have some sexy, sustainable faux leather in your wardrobe, winter is the perfect excuse to get some. Paired with chunky black boots and your wardrobe basics, you’ve got an easy ‘fit for Friday night!
When the sun comes out on a warm winter day, the Aytan Bolero Sweater will be your go-to piece. A lil’ bit of coverage and colour goes a long way, and this easy-to-style sweater will match with all your basic white tees and denim jeans. Need a ‘just in case’ sweater for your next night out? Squeeze this piece into your handbag and throw it on once you’ve cooled off after tearing up the dance floor.
At this point, if you don’t have a staple puffer in your wardrobe, WYD?
The Recycled Fibers Abe Puffer Jacket is perf’ for those cool-casual everyday looks, but will certainly not be going under the radar. This type of statement piece will have everyone asking, “where did you get your outfit from?” Remember, no gatekeeping!
Everybody needs a jumper that feels like a nice warm hug. Plus, the sporty aesthetic is super cute. The MVP Jumper is oversized, cosy and a great example of how a staple item can fit a bunch of different aesthetics depending on how you style it. Pair this jumper with ANYTHING denim for a cool-casual look, or step into the Archer Pants for business-casual coffee date vibes.
