Refresh Your Winter Wardrobe at Altona Gate

With colder weather approaching, it's time to pack away your Summer wardrobe and make room for warmer pieces. By choosing versatile, stylish essentials, you can stay warm whilst keeping up with the latest trends. 
Follow these steps to seamlessly transition your wardrobe for winter and stay stylish all season long:

Refresh Your Wardrobe

Before embracing new winter fashion, consider reviewing your wardrobe. Set aside pieces that no longer fit or feel like you, and consider donating them to make room for something new.

Start with the Essentials
  • Heavy coats and jackets: Wool, down, and other insulated materials are key for staying warm in winter. A classic trench coat is versatile and stylish, perfect for layering over any outfit. Forever New and Sussan have the perfect selection in store.
  • Thermal layers and thinner pieces: Base layers, long-sleeve shirts, and leggings are crucial for layering under clothing during winter. Wool and cashmere sweaters from are the perfect choice if you spend most of your day in the office, while fleece and puffer jackets will keep you warm and dry if you prefer to spend your days outdoors. You can find these essential pieces at Bonds.

Incorporate Trendy Colours

Add trendy shades like burgundy and brown into your wardrobe through accessories or a single statement piece. These rich, warm tones are perfect for adding a touch of elegance to any winter look.

Find Your Perfect Winter Footwear

When you're braving the cold, having the right footwear is essential. Boots are a go-to for keeping your feet warm while still looking stylish and at Kmart or Skechers you can find the perfect pair. Looking for something comfortable and on-trend? The Adidas Samba is the perfect option, available in a range of colours at Platypus.

Accessorise Your Winter Looks

Accessories can elevate your winter wardrobe, adding both style and functionality. This season, chunky and chrome pieces are the top pick. Edge Clothing and Elm has options to suit every style.  Don't forget the winter must-haves: gloves, beanies and scarves. These items are essential for the cooler days and add a stylish layer to any outfit. Explore these cold-weather staples Cotton On or Sportsgirl.

As the weather shifts, your skincare routine should too. Combat the changing weather with hydrating skincare products. Look for rich moisturisers, soothing serums, and protective sunscreens to keep your skin glowing all season.
