6 items we can’t wait to buy during winter sales
Happy 2025! There’s no time like the beginning of a new year to set intentions for the future. The fresh, new energy is palpable: you might feel motivated like never before to make big changes and start the year on the right foot.
While you’re planning a holiday or comparing gym membership plans, don’t forget that January doesn’t just mean new beginnings—it also means winter sales are here.
Now, we’re not ones to encourage overconsumption, and sale season isn’t an excuse to go ham. Besides the obvious environmental concerns, mindless shopping also puts you at risk of buyer’s remorse—and there’s nothing worse than being stuck with a final sale item you end up hating.
That said, shopping with intention is possible, even during sales designed to make you forget your best intentions. The key to doing winter sales the right way is to focus on trans-seasonal and classic pieces that will fit seamlessly with your wardrobe. Before diving into winter sales, come up with a wishlist and a budget, and take a deep breath.
What about Stylight’s wishlist, you ask? Well, we’re so glad you asked. To ring in the new year, here are the six items we’ll definitely be buying during winter sales.
If you think January is too late to invest in a warm coat, think again! Winter has just barely started, and you’ll have plenty of occasions to rock your brand-new score in 2025.
A classic single- or double-breasted coat is a great piece to invest in, especially if you manage to snag one at a good price. Keep a close eye on the fabric composition: natural fibres like wool, camel, alpaca, and cashmere aren’t only luxurious, but also ultra-warm.
A sporty puffer, on the other hand, is perfect for colder climates and will keep you toasty even in sub-zero temperatures. When shopping for a puffer, remember to consider insulation, water resistance, breathability, fit, and durability.

A good pair of boots always comes in handy, no matter the season: from fall to spring, styling your new boots couldn’t be easier.
The trending styles of the year include thigh-high and slouchy silhouettes, biker designs, suede, snake skin, and square toes—the best pick for you depends on your own style and wardrobe.
Leather boots are the go-to, but more unusual materials like shearling, rubber, or foam are great for a touch of novelty.

No matter the wash or the cut—blue jeans will never not be in style. Some silhouettes, though, are more enduring than others: in the eternal fight between baggy and skinny, straight-leg jeans come out on top as the truly classic option.
Medium-wash straight-leg jeans are the epitome of classic, while other washes convey different vibes: dark-wash and black denim are sleek and refined, while light-wash denim is more casual.
Prices for jeans vary massively between brands, and these winter sales might be the chance to splurge on something different and indulgent, like a pair of jeans from a luxury brand.

When talking about knitwear, there’s no fibre near as luxurious as cashmere. Made with the undercoat of a certain type of goat native to the Gobi Desert and Central Asia, cashmere is soft and fluffy, perfect for sweaters and knitted accessories.
Since this fibre is so rare and sumptuous, it’s often good to be wary of really inexpensive cashmere: some of the more affordable options are made with lower-quality, short fibres which are soft, yes, but not very durable.
Winter sales are a great opportunity to snag a high-quality cashmere jumper for a fraction of the price!
