When it comes to weekend dressing, Kate Winslet’s off-duty denim outfit formula is a total fashion fail-safe
The actress opted for simple and relaxed basics that worked beautifully together
As a fashion editor, I’m all for following trends and trying new things with your wardrobe but I’m also a firm believer that sometimes keeping things simple really is best. You genuinely can’t go wrong with an oversized knit and straight-legged denim combination as it’s a fuss-free yet forever-chic look, and it's one that I will often reach for when I have a busy weekend ahead.
Kate Winslet clearly feels the same way as I do, as the star was spotted out in New York last week showing off this fail-safe fashion formula to perfection. The actress looked great in a soft oatmeal-hued jumper and blue jean look, which she finished with an oversized leather bag and a pair of Chelsea boots by Red Wing. This particular pair of brown flats has long been a favourite for the star as she has used them to complete many looks over the last couple of years, adding a classic footnote to this latest ensemble too.
Kate’s look will work with any capsule wardrobe and for all kinds of plans, so it’s a great one to bookmark if you struggle to pull together an outfit for a low-key day.
Shop the Look
A warm neutral beige or oatmeal sweater will work with anything and everything on your bottom half. Wear with jeans like Kate or use your jumper to soften a busier printed pair of trousers.
A turned-up hem brings a fresh feel to an otherwise classic pair of blue jeans that will add some interest to your ensemble. This pair is available in petite too, to help you find your perfect fit.
Kate's flats feature some brogue-inspired seam detailing across the front and sides, and this very similar pair will show off the traditional look too.
Shop More Chelsea Boots
These real leather shoes will lift an old coat and trouser look, and the chunky sole will keep your feet supported and looked after during the colder weather months.
A slightly higher cut brings a contemporary twist to the well-loved Chelsea boot, and this pull-on pair comes with an antibacterial lining to keep your feet feeling fresh.
These leather boots have a worn-in style that will look and feel very relaxed for a busy day of errands. As with many of the best winter boots, they are waterproof too, so you won't need to worry about the forecast when leaving the house.
Kate Winslet's classic separates worked well as an outfit, and her Chelsea boots pulled it all together nicely. This particular style of shoe has a vintage vibe to it that works with pretty much any look, so they will make a wise and practical investment for your winter capsule wardrobe right now and for years to come.
Use your Chelsea boots to smarten up jeans like the star or to add a boho aesthetic to a floaty skirt or patterned maxi dress. A timeless design, opting for a neutral colourway of black or tan will help you max out on wearability.
