Winter is finally here in Australia which means it's time to reassess your wardrobe and, if you're lucky, buy some new pieces. So, now for the big question: what to buy?!
There are so many amazing brands, styles and trends out there, that without guidance it can be close to impossible to know what you need. And what is this 'guidance'? Well it can be anything: social media, bloggers, magazines or me!
Today I am going to tell you my top 7 most essential winter items in the hope that it will inspire you and help you to make the right choices when creating your winter wardrobe.
1. Coats
Tobi - Front Page Grey Wool Blazer Coat
A coat is an essential in any winter wardrobe, especially one that can be worn on a night out, to a business meeting or to lunch with the girls. My favourite one is the wool blazer coat from Tobi (linked above) because it is stylish and versatile. It is so classy and sophisticated with a lovely brushed, soft woolen texture.

2. Skinny Jeans
Supre - The Classic Raw Edge Denim Jean
Just like a coat, skinny jeans are a necessity for any winter wardrobe. They are so versatile and can be worn both evening and during the day. Skinny jeans are such a flattering item and look great on so many different body types.
3. Bomber Jackets
ASOS - Alpha Industries MA-1 TT Bomber Jacket
Super comfy, stylish, badass and warm, these jackets will be a staple piece this winter. They are super popular at the moment and you can see why, just check out the awesome one above.

4. Knit Dresses
Boohoo - Maria Soft Knit Jumper Dress
I have a pink Boohoo knit dress, and it has gotten me through many winter events where I couldn't wear jeans and I needed to look nice. Now whenever I am going to an event or party in winter it is my go-to piece.

5. Cozy Knits
Myer Miss Shop - All Over Lurex Jumper
Like many others, I have a lot of sweaters, jumpers and cardigans. They are the sorts of things that are always in your wardrobe and never really go out of style. Whether they are wool, chunky knit, cashmere or cotton, a cozy knit is a must have in your winter wardrobe.
6. Ankle & Knee High Boots
When the rain and cold weather hits you don't want to be stranded with only a pair of strappy heels and cheap ballet flats. So what's the answer? Boots! Perfect for day to day activities as well as fancy-wear, a pair of nice boots are essential for the colder months.

7. Cool Pair of Sneakers
We have talked about a lot of versatile, evening-wear items in this post, but what about the casual, everyday wear that most of us need and use more often than anything else in our closet? A cool, comfy pair of sneakers.
These are my 7 must have, essential, winter wardrobe items! Have you got these things in your wardrobe this year? If not, better get a move on, winter will be over before you know it!
