Winter is coming.
Temperatures are dropping, so it’s time to stock your closet with thick, cozy fashion pieces in sustainable fabrics like merino wool, organic cotton, silky soft modal, and responsibly sourced down. As we head toward winter, the word of the moment is “layering.” Pile on plenty of layers in luxurious fabrics so you can stay comfortable whether you’re spending time inside or out.
Just because it’s colder doesn’t mean you need to sacrifice your sense of style. The beauty of these looks is that they can adjust to a variety of situations with just a quick shoe change or accessory swap. Versatile dresses can be dressed up or down with heels or flat boots, organic-cotton jeans can be worn on date nights with a graceful, symmetrical top and fancy heeled boots, and a fabulous coat is always in season. So go ahead, add your own flair to these fall pieces, and integrate them easily into your existing wardrobe for a look that’s 100 percent your own.
Here are our top picks to get you through the coming winter:
This slimming, sophisticated column dress is adorned with a loose and flowing fringed scarf for a look that’s equal parts laid-back and classy. Dress it up with high heels and jewelry for more formal events, or keep things simple with flats and dainty studs.
Chill in the air? You won’t care with this cozy, snuggly organic-cotton waffle-knit sweater dress. Wear it with your favorite leggings—like this stretchy, classic organic-cotton pair from PACT. Throw on a pair of boots and some simple, statement-making jewelry if you have plans, or just curl up with your mug and slippers at home.
The best way to find balance in life is to create your own. This shirt and skirt combo is very deliberate: The oversized fit of the painter’s smock–inspired top is balanced by the slim fit of the comfy organic-cotton skirt. It looks sophisticated enough for work or date night, but is still casual enough for leisurely fall strolls.
This drapey, funnel-neck wool vest goes perfectly with so many outfit choices. Layer it on over a ballet-neck top and corduroy stretch leggings for an effortless, pulled-together outfit. Simple Herkimer studs complete this look.
