4 Mom Winter Outfit Combinations

January is always a tough month for me when it comes to styling outfits. I always feel like cold weather and dark days make it hard for me to be creative with my style. If you are feeling the same way this time of the year, then I am here to help! Today I have 4 easy mom winter outfit combinations that you can copy to help elevate your everyday winter outfits!

I always say that getting dressed should be the easiest part of your get-ready routine as a mom, but I often find that many women are overthinking their outfits. When you focus too much on trends or what to wear with what, you start to find yourself in a style rut. When you have easy outfit combinations it helps you refocus on the basics of building an outfit. Here are some of my favorite go-to mom winter outfit combinations to help make getting dressed easy!

* For sizing reference I am 5’1 and around 110 lbs. I wear a 2/26/short in pants and xsmall or small in tops. Everything fits TTS unless otherwise stated.

Mom Winter Outfit Combination #1: All Black Base + A Layer

I just shared a reel over on Instagram styling an all-black base outfit (What the reel HERE!) This is my favorite go-to outfit combination. Black is such a classic color that looks good on everyone! It’s also such a great starting point because you can easily build on it with layers and accessories. Here are a few ways I have styled an all-black base outfit.

Black sweater with leggings and tan blazer.
black top and leggings with a coatigan layered over.
All black base outfit with a color block cardigan layered over.

Outfit 1: Blazer- xs || Sweater- xs || Leggings- small/25 inch || Shoes (similar) || Outfit 2: Top- small || Coatigan- small || Leggings- small/25 inch || Boots- 7.5 || Outfit 3: Cardigan- small || Tank- small || Leggings- small/25 inch || Boots- 7.5

Mom Winter Outfit Combination #2: Legging + An Oversized Sweater + Boots

This outfit combination is so great in the winter. Leggings are my favorite winter pants because they are comfortable and can be worn with so many different shoes, but my favorite is to pair them with boots. Leggings look good with any type of boot and I find myself wearing boots often in the wintertime.

An oversized sweater always makes for a great top to wear with leggings. They cover up your bottom, which is always nice when wearing leggings. Pullover sweaters are always easy to layer under coats. I am always wearing a coat when I leave the house and I don’t want my layers to show or get bunched up in the coat. That’s why pullover sweaters are always a great winter outfit option.

Striped sweater with leggings and brown Chelsea boots.
Tan sweater with leggings and Chelsea boots
Striped tunic sweater and leggings with Chelsea boots.

Outfit 1: Sweater- xs (similar) || Leggings- small/25 inch || Socks || Boots (similar) || Outfit 2: Sweater- small || Shirt (similar) || Leggings- small/25 inch || Boots- 7.5 || Outfit 3: Sweater- small || Leggings- small || Boots- 7.5

Mom Winter Outfit Combination #3: Joggers + Pull-Over Sweater

I love wearing joggers in the winter, especially when I am lounging around the house. A sweater with joggers gives a more elevated look. This combination is especially good if you work from home. On top, you look put together, but on the bottom, you are nice and cozy in joggers. Here are a few ways I have worn this outfit combination.

Green joggers with striped sweater
Pink turtleneck sweater with joggers and slippers.
Cropped cardigan with black joggers.

Outfit 1: Joggers (similar, similar) || Sweater-small (similar) || Outfit 2: Sweater (similar, similar) || Joggers (similar) || Slippers || Outfit 3: Cardigan (similar) || Turtleneck- small || Joggers (similar) || Shoes (similar)

Mom Winter Outfit Combination #4: Black Jeans + Sweater + Boots

I love black jeans in the winter. They do a great job of elevating a casual outfit. I love to pair them with a simple sweater. As I have said before, pullover sweaters in the winter are nice for laying under your coats when you leave the house. This combination is also really easy to accessorize with jewelry or a coat. Here are a few ways I have worn black jeans and a sweater this winter.

Neutral sweater with black jeans
Maroon sweater with black jeans.
Black jeans with a gray sweater.

Outfit 1: Sweater-small || Jeans (similar) || Booties (similar) || Outfit 2: Sweater (similar) || Jeans- 26/short || Booties- 7.5 || Outfit 3: Sweater-small || Jeans- 26/short || Booties- 7.5
