With the change in seasons comes the age-old qualm - what do I wear to work now? The shift from slightly chilly to all-out, frigid cold has us reaching for our trusty knitwear and failsafe trousers, and dusting our big coats off.
Your winter work wear wardrobe should include pieces that can be layered on the coldest days, but then re-styled for when the weather finally flips back to warm. This way, you will get so much more wear out of your favourite pieces, and always have reliable and confidence-inducing pieces to slip into.
Read on for winter work wear inspiration, including office dresses for winter, long sleeve tops for the office, knitwear, and trousers that will take your winter office fashion from pedestrian to attention-demanding in all the best ways.
Office Dresses for Winter
Wearing a dress to the office will always bring with it an air of professional sophistication. In warmer months, a dress for the office is the perfect, airy, non-restrictive item to keep you cool all day long. Office dresses for winter are often overlooked as we associate a dress with letting our legs out, but with some clever styling a dress immediately becomes a year-round staple.
Dresses for work are also ideal for warm commutes - looking at the Londoners among us - as they allow for more air to flow than when bundled up in thick knits and tailoring.
Whether opting for a mini or midi length, style with thick tights and a pair of sleek boots for a polished yet warm winter office outfit.

Winter Office Wear: Long Sleeve Blouses
Having an array of long sleeve tops for work is always a good idea, as these pieces can be worn almost anywhere. Style a long sleeved blouse with a pair of tailored trousers or crisp, sleek jeans for an office look that is as comfortable as it is boardroom-approved. Wear court heels or boots to the office, then switch them for strappy heels for a day-to-night look perfect for post-work plans.
A high neckline provides even more protection from the cold winter air, as well as office appropriate coverage. Features like bows and textured detailing are ideal for adding a twist to an otherwise rather simple look, creating a dynamic and more intriguing ensemble that makes for a well-considered winter office outfit.
Winter Office Fashion: Knitwear
If a blouse simply doesn’t provide enough protection from the elements, or the office air conditioning that is still on for some reason, staple knitwear is needed. From cardigans that provide an extra layer of warmth, to slouchy jumpers that can be styled with sleek tailoring to make a comfy winter office outfit, knitwear is ideal for all your winter office fashion needs.
Trousers for Winter Work Wear
From wide leg to slim fit, our range of trousers for work are certain to take you seamlessly from commute to boardroom to happy hour.
Thick, weather proof fabrics like faux leather are perfect for the coldest months as they provide protection from the elements while looking ultra chic and powerful. Wide leg fits also bring another level of drama to a look, and are easy to style with anything from a slinky long sleeve bodysuit to a slouchy knit cardigan.
Slim leg trousers are perfect for styling with an oversized jumper or flowy blouse, ideal for adding a contrasting silhouette and flaunting your figure beneath thick, wintery layers.
Office Attire for Winter: Blazers
While a coat has the danger of covering an outfit, a blazer can certainly complete one. For those days where your office ensemble is a little less elevated, or when you need a layer that adds something a little extra, consider a blazer with impact.
From bold tones, to thick, luxe fabrications, to unique belted waistlines, to simple silhouettes that can be thrown over anything, a blazer in any shape or style will take any look from casual to boardroom ready. Ideal for adding an extra layer when you don’t want to carry a coat around or for slipping under your trusty winter coat for an extra layer of protection.
Coats for Winter Office Outfits
Bring a sense of classic tailoring to your winter office wear with a coat that elevates your look even further, while still protecting you from the elements. Faux fur and wool blends will block out the breeze while providing you with breathable, comfortable layers.
Traditional designs like trench coats and pea coats bring a charm from days gone by, and instantly add extra formality to your winter office wear.
