6 Cute Winter Outfit Ideas For Those (Very) Cold Winter Days

Do you find yourself always going for the same outfits in winter? I’ve created a short winter fashion lookbook to help you shake up your style with some new winter outfit ideas.
I live in Minnesota so I know plenty about staying warm but also, still dressing stylishly. I am all about simple styling, choosing straightforward pieces, and making them go a long way.
So sit back, relax and take a look at these cute and casual winter outfits that I’ve put together.
1. Ready for winter
First up, we have an effortlessly chic winter look. I started off with a pair of black leggings and styled them with a beige hoodie.
Then, to contrast the loose, casual appearance of the hoodie, I added a long structured jacket over the top, which really helps to elevate the outfit and bring it all in together.
On my feet, I have a pair of Timberland boots - a practical yet stylish choice. A beanie hat in a similar color to the coat finishes off the look.
2. Warm tones
This next outfit I absolutely adore. I’m wearing a gorgeous embroidered dress; just check out the sequins and the amount of detail that it has on it! I also love how it is symmetrical.
I layered the dress on top of a black turtleneck to make me warmer, but I also like how the high-neck peeps out the top.
Next, I added stylish black ankle boots.
Over the top, I threw on an orange coat which ties in with the orange shades on the dress, so these two pieces look very well coordinated.
Warm colors like this orange are great to wear in the winter as they help to evoke the feeling of warmth in the cold weather.
3. Puffer style
Winter is all about layering. For the first layer of this outfit, I'm wearing a simple white turtleneck tucked into black jeans.
To give this outfit some edge, I went with a pair of white Doc. Martens and a black beanie hat.
Next up, I’ve styled the outfit with a beige puffer jacket. I really like the juxtaposition of the tight fit of the jeans against the padded jacket; it makes for a proportional appearance.
I kept the color palette very minimalist here, only going with a few neutral colors. This look is so on-trend and makes a powerful impact.
4. Shaggy chic
Next up, I’m wearing this one-of-a-kind shaggy statement jacket. This jacket is just the bomb; I mean, what else can I say. It has a wonderful texture that is irresistible to run your fingers through.
Because the jacket is the focal point of the outfit, I kept the rest of it very simple with a little black dress with a white shirt underneath and some tall boots.
5. Cozy and coordinated
With this outfit, I’ve combined various pieces that all have a similar color palette. We have a long, red, knit sweater, and then the plaid scarf also includes those reddy, burnt orange tones.
My heeled boots fit in with this color scheme with their browny orange color and orange laces.
The brown coat finishes the look and also ties into these winter shades. Color coordination is key when it comes to a layered look.
6. Pop of red
Last but not least, I styled a black mini skirt with a soft gray cardigan. I added a black coat and some black boots to keep me snug. All of the black pieces create a very sophisticated look.
Then, for a pop of color and a bit of excitement, I’m wearing a silky red scarf around my neck.
Winter outfit ideas
I hope you like the winter looks that I put together. My top tip is to go for versatile pieces that you can easily mix and match with other things.
It’s good to have a lot of neutrals because they are, of course, adaptable, but also warm colors are great to wear in cold months.
When you have those basics down, then you can start to add some statement pieces and brighter colors into the mix. Happy styling!
