I Was a VIPReplica Store Stylist—These 5 Elevated Winter Basics Are the Most Fashionable
As a former VIP Nordstrom stylist, Sandy Koszarek spent years helping clients shop and build out their wardrobes. She continues to do this in a different medium as a content creator (hello, Stylish Sandy), sharing styling tips and product recommendations to her audience and followers. One fashion category she's recommended throughout her career—from herReplica Store days to her role now as a content creator—is elevated basics.
Koszarek believes basics are the foundation of a well-balanced wardrobe because they can be styled with a range of pieces, and it's those elevated selects, particularly fashion-forward basics, that she gravitates toward most. On that note, five basics are the front-runners for Koszarek this winter because she thinks they're incredibly fashionable and can take any look to the next level with their chic and elegant nature. Keep scrolling to see and shop the fashionable winter basics in question.
Overcoat
"A wool overcoat is a must-have for the winter months. It's timeless, practical, and looks so chic styled with any outfit." — Koszarek
Cozy Knit
"Cashmere and cozy knits are my favorite basics for winter. They're practical and feel luxe and fashionable, elevating any outfit." — Koszarek
Dark-Wash Denim
"I'm wearing dark-wash denim this winter—an essential basic that's flattering, dressy, and always looks fashionable." — Koszarek
Boots
"Boots are a must-have for the season. Fashionable tall boots, over-the-knee styles, and booties are favorites I'll be wearing this winter with everything from jeans to skirts." — Koszarek
Trousers
"Trousers are a wardrobe staple I love to wear with cozy knits and button-downs—a perfect alternative to denim that always looks polished and fashionable." — Koszarek
