Every season, I update my closet. New seasons offer the opportunity to further build out my solid go-to wardrobe-essentials. 

Finding clothing that is flattering, comfortable and yet allows self-expression is always big on my check-off list.

What I have learned, is that if I purchase clothing that can be used as both casual and classic,  I’ve chosen well! Double duty clothing is what I call it. 

Dressed up, or dressed down, the right clothing offers adaptability to my life. I don’t adapt to clothing.

Clothing and accessories must be modern and versatile, just like me.   

Style is personal and ‘a day in the life’ is different for everyone.  Get ready because I am about to share timeless and classic Fall to Winter Wardrobe Essentials. 

These are pieces that we all need to keep our wardrobe, fresh, timeless and adaptable. 

Timeless and Classic Fall to Winter Wardrobe Essentials

To me, when I’m put together well, I can stand tall and walk confidently. I don’t feel like a slouch or a couch potato.  

My belief is that being put together is about appearing polished even if you really just grabbed a piece of clothing off the hanger and ran out the door. 

How does that work? In my world, if I can’t wear a  purchased shirt with both jeans and a jacket or alone with a cami, it’s not going to be in my closet.

Along with that, I search for clothing that I can wear outside with the kids when we are just going to do some small tasks, like decorating. 

Conversely, I make sure the clothing I purchase is also able to function for games at the ice rink and drinks after with friends or a meeting for work with colleagues. 

Timeless clothing is easy-wear clothing that lets me be casual on somedays, yet dressed on others. Truly this depends on how I integrate it with a particular outfit.

Where To Find Classic Colors with Seasonal Updates For Winter Wardrobe Essentials? 

I took a shopping trip to Appleseed to update my timeless and classic Fall to Winter wardrobe-essentials. 

Appleseed’s offers easy-wear clothing that ranges in styles from the most casual (leggins, loungewear) to tailored pieces (suit coats, dress pants, etc). 

Committing time to my self to shop was what took the most effort. There are endless options and Appleseed offers Iconic East Coast styles, combined with modern preppy looks. 

These options allowed me to find quality pieces, in fun seasonal colors, that will extend my Fall and Winter wardrobe year after year. 

Better yet, each item I chose, will wear on as it is ‘trendy’ but committed to classic styling, which is how I always shop for wardrobe-essentials. 

Heading Outside For Holiday Decor – Style in Classic winter essentials  

I needed to get outside before the coldest days settle in. It’s holiday decorating season and I want to attach those huge bulbs to the trees. 

Classic Fall to Winter Wardrobe Essentials – with a Shirt, Scarf & Sweater  

Tartan plaid is an every-year trend, especially during the holidays. It’s classic and timeless. My love of Tartan plaid goes far beyond the norm.  

Selecting both the  Tartan Scarf in cream coupled with the Foxcroft Red Stewart Plaid shirt allows versatility and self-expression.

Somewhere I once read that ‘Tartan is a chameleon’ and I so agree.  There’s no way to mismatch it. Red plaid celebrates the season. 

I keep things easy and I add a tee underneath in basic black. Then I layer it with a jacket when it is colder and I am outside, like today. 

Alternate Styling of the Foxcroft Red Steward Plaid Shirt, after all, it’s a Winter Wardrobe Essential.

Instead of wearing my sweater on top, I sized up the Red Steward plaid shirt when ordering to make it versatile enough to wear over my other wardrobe essential. 

My new Appleseed’s Spindrift V-Neck Pullover in red.

This lets me keep my plaid on but buries it below another stylish layer. Color me plaid and accent with red! 

To get the style, purchase the v-neck pullover, place the shirt and tee beneath! There’s warmth in layering.

Warmth, style, and adaptability in clothing pieces, all create this easy-wearing outfit! 

Simply wearing the sweater and shirt with jeans and sporty shoes creates a relaxed, yet put-together style. 

As time wore on, and I tried to keep getting more done outside, I began hustling a bit.

Getting warmer and warmer, I peeled off the scarf and kept on decorating bulb by bulb.

Baby, It’s Cold Outside ~Winter Wardrobe Essentials

When it’s so cold that I can’t take it any longer, it’s time to button up, hide the plaid and add on my new fave coat. 

My  London Fog down coat offers fur trim which exudes style.  The cream-colored to matches with everything. 

From ice hockey tournaments to fun evenings out, I am snuggled into a very comfortable, yet stylish coat. 

It’s thin enough to not be bulky, yet thick enough to keep me nestled and warm on all cold days!
