I Just Assembled 4 Expensive-Looking Winter Outfits Entirely From M&S
Like a lot of us, I've long relied on Marks and Spencer for my wardrobe cornerstones. From comfy lingerie to long-lasting denim, many of the pieces I lean on frequently come from the brand, and when shopping there, I'm usually met with a high standard of quality—and crucially, affordability. My advice? Look out for the classics, as this is what they do best. Especially those in premium materials like leather and cashmere, as you probably won't find a better price anywhere else on the high street.
For all of these reasons, M&S is also one of the best places to find expensive-looking pieces on a budget; something I think we're all striving for right now. As proof, and to help you shop wisely as we head into winter, below I've pulled together four timeless cold-weather-ready outfits you can turn to again and again this season, entirely from M&S. Expect classic layering options and versatile daytime looks to have on rotation.
You may already own versions of the various elements at home, so in that case, all you need to do is save this article for outfit inspiration. But if you're looking to add some fail-safe winter items to your collection, I've also added links to everything below. Keep scrolling to see and shop these chic and affordable outfits.
1. Turtleneck + Midi Skirt + Suede Boots
Style Notes: Knitwear is an essential component of all winter outfits. To dress a basic turtleneck up, simply add heeled skirts and an eye-catching skirt.
Shop the look:
Use this to cinch in looser pieces and create a flattering silhouette.
Pair this with black accessories to make the print really pop.
2. Faux Shearling Jacket + Wide Jeans + Trainers
Style Notes: On casual days, stick to an easy jeans combo. Marks and Spencer's hooded faux shearling jacket is the cosy layer you've been looking for.
Shop the look:
I'll be adding this snug cover-up to my repertoire ASAP.
I keep seeing 'puffer' bags on Instagram, but few are this afforable.
3. Camel Coat + Mini Skirt + Knee-High Boots
Style Notes: A palette of warm beige, deep burgundy and touches of gold is enduringly classic—plus it always looks expensive.
Shop the look:
This is divine—and it has wool in it, so you know it will keep you warm.
We've talked about this expensive-looking bag non-stop since it landed, and we'll continue to until it sells out.
4. Printed Dress + Biker Jacket + Western Boots
Style Notes: A roomy girlfriend-style jacket will allow you to layer jumpers and cardigans underneath for added warmth. But on milder days, this beautiful long-sleeved dress should suffice.
Shop the look:
The longer length of this biker jacket makes it more suitable for winter.
There's nothing like a colour-pop accessory to transform your mood.
One of the best pairs of western-style boots on the high street.
