It’s official: the cold is here. The leaves are collecting on the floor under our feet and the trees will soon be bare. Wedding season has come to an end and Christmas decorations are already in the shops! However, there’s another important matter we have to address. Now that it’s getting chillier after a rollercoaster of a month of hot/cold/hot again/cold again and now really cold, with temperatures hitting the low-to-mid teens, what do you wear in 15-degree weather? Luckily, we’ve sorted through some key pieces to have on standby to help answer that major question.
Fifteen degrees might seem chilly, but it’s actually a pretty nice temperature (for me) as you’re still warm enough when walking but perhaps it’s a little too cold to sit on a park bench in a t-shirt. A brisk breeze could really throw your outfit choice off. Still, this indeterminate forecast is difficult to dress for. Wear too thick a knit and you’ll feel flushed, but breezy, lightweight textures like cotton and jersey might feel too cool on their own. To help you assemble outfits to suit the temperature, we’ve rounded up nine foolproof suggestions from some of our favourite influencers, who seem to have the art of transseasonal dressing down.
With everything from an alternative to bulky winter coats to the hero piece you’ll consistently reach for over the next six months, scroll on to see nine impressive outfits that perfectly demonstrate what to wear in 15-degree weather. Then, should they not already feature in your wardrobe, proceed to shop the key pieces you need to re-create them.
