Best of Both Worlds: 10 Winter Work Outfits That Are Chic & Stylish

Temperatures are dropping and it’s getting harder to get out of bed (and your cute PJs) in the morning. But with the new year comes a new you — and that starts with upping your fashion game. Here are 10 winter work outfit ideas that will make you excited about getting dressed in the cold mornings, and looks that will earn compliments from your coworkers.

Bold Blazer

Elevate your simple dress shirt and pants look with a bold blazer. Fun colors and pretty prints can give life to your outfit. If a bright pink blazer or one in a plaid pattern isn’t for you, try styling your look with a velvet blazer in a dark color. And remember that being bold doesn’t always mean being bright — it can also mean updating a traditional look (like a basic black blazer) with a twist (a black blazer with velvet collar). There are so many ways to wear a blazer!

Sweater Dress

This look combines two of our favorite things: sweaters and dresses. You get the best of both worlds with the coziness of your favorite sweater and the shortness of a traditional dress, allowing you to show off those killer new boots you got on sale.

Wide Leg Pant

There are so many types of pant styles: straight leg, flare, boot-cut and, of course, wide leg. Wide leg options in basic colors and prints (plaid is in) look great with solid sweaters, turtlenecks, and button-down shirts. Basically any simple top in your closet.

Faux Leather Leggings

Want to add a little edge to your outfit? Faux leather leggings are a cold-weather staple - plus, they pair well with oversized sweaters (next on our list) and bold tops. Pair with black pumps and you’re ready for work.

Oversized Sweater

These are great to wear on the weekends when you’re lounging in your favorite jeans, but you can also use them during the workweek. To create a more professional look, wear the sweater with leggings or slim or skinny pants, and then pair with cute ankle boots. You can also add a belt or statement jewelry to bring the look together.

Long-sleeve Maxi Dress

In the winter, you want to cover as much of your body as possible, but still look great, right? Long-sleeve maxi dresses do just that. They are perfect to wear for that important meeting. And they can be worn with the stylish knee-high boots you’ve been wanting to show off.

Faux Fur Vest

If your workplace is casual, a faux fur vest makes a fashion statement while also keeping you warm. It’s great for layering ensembles and can be found in different colors, prints, and lengths. There are so many ways to wear a faux fur vest to work and look chic.

Shirtdress

Some girls just like dresses. A shirtdress creates a polished look for the workplace. And lucky for you, shirtdresses come in different colors, patterns, styles, and cuts (it’s a dress style that looks good on all women). Pair with pumps, booties, or cute flats.

Corduroy Pant

This is another great choice for a casual workplace. Corduroy pants are thick and will protect your legs from the cold. Purchase in dark colors and wear with a polka dot or striped long-sleeve shirt for an effortless look.

Long, Suede Jacket

A long, suede jacket dresses up any workplace outfit. It works well with a shirtdress or turtleneck and wide leg pants. Finding one to complement your skin tone isn’t hard, since suede jackets come in so many different colors. Try to buy one that works with different items in your wardrobe so you can get good use of it during the winter.
