8 Outfits We Fully Intend on Copying in February

February may seem like one of the most difficult months to dress for, but we think it’s all about perception. Sure, it’s still borderline unbearably cold, but as the days begin to stretch, we start to see the first signs of spring emerge. As ever, we believe it always pays to get ahead, which is why, during February, we’re going to start building up our new-season wardrobes whilst still leaning on the winter style staples that have served us well since November.

After trawling through Instagram, we’ve come across eight key looks that are ideal for February—all you need to add is your favourite coat or switch out any inappropriate footwear for some trusty boots. From cool layered outfits to co-ords that are right for the office (and won’t have you freezing), here’s exactly what to wear in February.
