The City Girl’s Uniform

The sun is setting before 5 PM; temperatures are dropping below freezing; and lightweight, transitional outerwear offerings are being replaced by snuggly shearlings and fabulous faux furs. This also means that the need for chic city attire is at an all time high–think outfits built for easy commuting, post-work holiday soirees, and weekend afternoons spent strolling the streets with piping hot lattes or teas in hand. Enter “The City Girl’s Uniform,” which consists of Dunst’s shearling-trimmed leather jacket, J.Crew’s sequin midiskirt, Jenni Kayne’s everyday cashmere sweater, and a pair of double-buckle biker boots from Mango. All for under-$300, achieving city-slicker style has never been simpler, or looked more sophisticated.

Masterfully Minimal

‘Tis always the season for understated elegance–even during the winter months. Get the low-key, yet luxurious look all for under-$300, starting with Cos’s scarf-detail wool blazer, Pixie Market’s ivory-colored column skirt, and a pair of T-strap kitten heels from H&M. For the final touch, break up the monochrome with Cos’s python-printed leather belt. It’s all in the details, as we like to say.

Old School Cool

Retro sneakers, high-waist pleated pants, collegiate-inspired V-neck sweaters, and slouchy leather bomber jackets help craft a nostalgic look we can’t help but want to recreate this cold-weather season (and all seasons for that matter). Courtesy of brands like Pixie Market, H&M, Adidas, and Joe’s Jeans, this affordable outfit is the ultimate cool yet casual ensemble. When in doubt, turn here!

Texture Takeover

Texture thrives during the winter months. So far this season, we’ve slipped into luxurious leather, fluffy mohair, and even leopard-print calf-hair. The problem, here, is that many of these fabulous fabrics tend to come with a higher price tag. Luckily, and with the help of some of our favorite high-street and contemporary brands, there are affordable options that will have people stopping you in the street wondering if your newest find is a designer label instead of J.Crew’s or St. Agni’s latest under-$300 offering. Here, sport the two with Agolde’s signature faux-leather pants and Vibi Venezia’s leopard-print Mary Janes.

Party-Ready

According to the fall/winter runways and the street style scene, your seasonal capsule wardrobe needs a lacy slip skirt or dress. Our favorite, affordable pick is undoubtedly this black-and-white, lace-trimmed dress from J.Crew, which we recommend styling with Mango’s caramel-colored faux fur coat and a pair of crystal-embellished kitten heels from Kate Spade New York. To complete the party-ready look, sling St. Agni’s cherry red suede bag over your shoulder for a festive finish.

Suede Story

There’s no denying suede’s total domination this fall/winter season, adorned on nearly everything, from blazers to handbags, and on everyone, from the street style scene to Vogue editors alike. Zara’s chocolate brown suede miniskirt is the newest arrival–and a seriously covetable one at that. Style it, below, with Alex Mill’s toggle-clasp jacket, Banana Republic’s off-white turtleneck top, and a pair of matching suede kitten-heel boots from Massimo Dutti.

Countryside Coded

We’re off to the English countryside by way of cozy cashmere sweaters, polished corduroy pants, preppy penny loafers, and hooded toggle-coats. Fit for the great outdoors, get the look we’re describing as “Royal Off-Duty” all for under-$300 with prized pieces from Calvin Klein, Free People, G.H. Bass, and Uniqlo x JW Anderson. If you wanted to swap out the loafers in favor of a signature Wellington boot, well, who would we be to judge?

Everyday Embellishment

This fall and winter, we’re making the case for everyday glitz and glamour—think crystal-embellished denim with a simple sneaker or a shimmery sequin skirt with an edgy leather bomber jacket. To dazzle from the top down, slip in to Massimo Dutti’s silver-studded tank top and style it with a sleek leather midiskirt—we’re loving this one from Joe’s Jeans’s collaboration with celebrity stylist Dani Michelle.

Croc-Chic

Smooth, glossy leather accessories are certified closet classics for a reason. This fall and winter, however, turn up the sartorial dial with these croc-embellished styles from Zara instead. Style the It items with Banana Republic’s knit turtleneck dress and Mango’s fringed scarf jacket. It is sweater weather, after all!

Off-Duty Options

When you’re off the clock, but still want to appear put-together, turn to these easy, yet elegant weekend wardrobe essentials from H&M, Alex Mill, Rails, and Madewell. Styled all together for one casually cool look, this affordable outfit is the perfect example of how much stylistic mileage a piece as simple–and well priced!–as one of the below has in your wardrobe. We’re not just talking about the now, either, but all of the many seasons to come!

Print Clash

For the adventurous dresser always game to mix colors, prints, and textures, this fun and playful look is for you. Start off strong with Gap’s leopard-print trench coat, layered over a ’90s-inspired flannel shirt, also from Gap, and Mango’s pair of sequin-studded baggy blue jeans. To finish, Rag & Bone’s two-toned penny loafers bring a nostalgic look and feel, which, in our opinion, is just what this maximalist, affordable outfit needs to ground it with polish.
