The Key Winter Buys That Will Keep Working Hard for Months to Come

Winter has well and truly arrived. Frost covers the ground, coats are now a real necessity and it's considered brave if you opt for bare legs. If you have put off buying winter pieces until now and are on an urgent hunt for layers, warm coats and boots, then you're in the right place, as I have combed through every new-in section out there to find the best winter pieces.
If you're willing to invest, then I'd recommend a coat from Joseph, which is sure to feel as stylish now as it will in 10 years' time. You also can't go wrong with a Citizens of Humanity jumpsuit for year-round throw-on-and-go dressing. For under £100, don't miss COS's colour-pop knit or Arket's sellout pleated midi skirts—both of which will adapt seamlessly to spring.
But a winter wardrobe isn't complete without the perfect lazy-day look. Everlane's grey hoodie was made for January Netflix marathons but will still look the part with a blazer and Other Stories' high-rise jeans for a casual weekend brunch. Keep scrolling to see and shop the winter buys that will make you happy it's cold. Trust us—you can totally keep wearing them well into the new season.
