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.
