Tired of black? All the most stylish women I know are currently opting for outfits in this sophisticated hue instead.
If I were to sift through my wardrobes—yes, I have more than one, and yes, I've been putting it off because they're in disarray—I would likely discover two or three navy-colored pieces, which would include indigo denim jeans. Navy isn't really a color I typically wear, and given that my hair often reflects quite a few red tones, I feel it can sometimes make my hair appear somewhat brassy. Additionally, I find that it can make some items look rather outdated. However, with the abundance of navy items available this season, I've developed a fondness for a chunky navy sweater from Jaeger, and I’m set on making it work for me—even if it means tying my hair up in a ponytail to get past my concerns about how it complements my hair color. To challenge my previous opinions and understand why so many people use navy separates as the foundation for chic outfits, I searched for the most stylish navy looks. These looks helped me to set aside my prior thoughts on the color, even leading me to consider a navy coat this season instead of the black one that I've been coveting. I’ve become an admirer of Div’s navy pinstripe style paired with a grey knit draped over her shoulders—navy and grey truly complement each other, for the record—and I adore Danielle’s navy suede trousers effortlessly styled with a leather jacket and cream heels. Not to mention how to wear navy for evening occasions (goodbye, little black dress) and the return of the navy slip skirt (I should probably retrieve my Topshop version), giving you seven chic navy outfits that could either reinforce your love for the color or persuade you to appreciate it—believe me!
7 All-Navy Outfits I'm Emulating This Winter:
1. Navy Coat + Grey Jumper + Indigo Jeans
Style Notes: Still pondering on your new winter coat? Div makes a compelling argument for the pinstripe style, and I’m fully onboard. By adding warmth to a simple outfit, I’ve come to like navy combined with grey and white—it's so basic yet incredibly effective. Shop the Look:
- River Island: Navy Pinstripe Double Breasted Coat
I would consider grabbing this in one or even two sizes up for added shoulder volume.
- COS: Column Straight-Leg Jeans
It's no surprise that so many fashion editors (myself included) adore these.
- Khaite: Nevada Leather Ankle Boots
An investment that’s truly worthwhile.
- & Other Stories: Relaxed Knit Jumper
The perfect lightweight layer over coats, blazers, and other knits.
2. Leather Jacket + Navy Suede Trousers + Cream Shoes
Style Notes: Combining leather and suede textures always adds a touch of luxury, so it’s no wonder Danielle's look shifted my perspective on navy. The suede trousers refresh the color for this season, and I love elevating a more casual look with chic heels. Shop the Look:
- Allsaints: Ryder Funnel Neck Jacket
A leather cape jacket feels a bit niche, so here’s a funnel neck version I recommend.
- Whistles: Blue Suede Western Trousers
Suede is undoubtedly key right now—including trousers.
- BOTTEGA VENETA: Campana Intrecciato Leather Shoulder Bag
The bag that’s been on my mind.
- ARRANGE: Arrange Agnes Premium Leather Heeled Mules in Off White
These seem like the ideal pair to me.
3. Navy Jumper + Striped Shirt + Grey Trousers
Style Notes: Gaining inspiration on how to style my new navy knit, Annabel’s waist-tied shirt trick seals the deal for me. Making a striped shirt work beyond summer showcases a clever styling hack worth noting. Shop the Look:
- Reformation: Cove Cashmere Oversized Crew
You can't go wrong with Reformation cashmere.
- MANGO: Pleated Wide Leg Trousers
These appear to be the perfect fit.
- With Nothing Underneath: The Classic: Fine Poplin, Royal Blue Stripe
Proof that striped shirts can be worn year-round.
- SAINT LAURENT EYEWEAR: Cat-Eye Acetate Sunglasses
I love adding sunglasses to winter outfits.
4. Navy Pinstripe Skirt Suit + Clutch + Slingbacks
Style Notes: Out with the little black dress; for the party season, I’ll be copying Caroline by choosing a navy power co-ord. This ensemble consists of a cinched waist blazer and split maxi skirt in navy pinstripe, a look that radiates professionalism beyond the office. Shop the Look:
- MESHKI: Bellamy Cinched Blazer Navy Pinstripe
That cinched waist detail is stunning.
- MESHKI: Cassie Column Maxi Skirt Navy Pinstripe
Okay, I’m definitely getting this set.
