I was lucky enough to spend the last two weeks in Europe on my dream trip to the Swiss and Austrian Alps, and to say it was incredible would be an understatement. I've dreamt of those slopes almost my entire life, and they defied even my high expectations. While the skiing was definitely the highlight, the fashion was a close second. Elevated European style was on full display throughout the streets of Zermatt, Kitzbühel, and Munich, so let's just say I returned home feeling quite inspired.
European style is defined by effortless elegance, leaning into timeless staples like trench coats, riding boots, and luxe cashmere sweaters. After being surrounded by elevated outfits for the past few weeks, I'm feeling inspired to incorporate more refined pieces into my own wardrobe. Below, I'm highlighting the European trends I'm shopping from H&M, Nordstrom, and J.Crew—from classic turtlenecks to shearling coats and polished accessories.
A cashmere scarf is the definition of sophistication.
The pointed toe is so elevated.
Classic sweaters are a must.
As timeless as it gets.
I'm very into riding boots right now.
Camel always looks expensive.
The hourglass shape is so flattering.
A shearling coat is a closet staple.
Functional and glamorous.
Effortlessly chic.
I'm obsessed with the fur collar.
A wardrobe staple.
Look at that texture.
I'm taking styling notes.
A leather belt adds instant polish.
Faux fur was all over the streets of Switzerland.
A polo feels both classic and modern.
You can just tell this is soft.
A very good pair of boots.
Timeless.
This shade of brown is so rich.
I would style this sweater exactly like that.
This silhouette is so chic.
Cashmere gloves are a European-trip prerequisite.
So cozy.
Perfection.
So polished.
It's giving The Row.
Talk about a coat you'll wear forever.
A great styling piece.
I would like to be wrapped in this until spring.
