While we love a classic capsule wardrobe, this winter there’s a specific aesthetic we’ll also be incorporating into our outfit rotation – the mob wife aesthetic. After gaining a lot of popularity online, mob wife dressing is set to be a massive trend this season and luckily, it’s quite easy to master. By simply adding a few new pieces to your wardrobe, you’ll be able to embrace the mob wife aesthetic no matter where you find yourself this season.

Not sure where to start? Keep reading to discover everything you’ll need to embrace the mob wife aesthetic this season.

Invest in faux fur

A standout piece in a mob wife wardrobe is a faux fur coat. Of course, here in Australia, our winters can still be quite warm. So, if you want to lean into the mob wife trend but don’t think a faux fur coat is very practical weather-wise, then we suggest investing in a faux fur gilet. Gilets are the perfect layering piece for the Australian winter, as they’re heavy enough to keep you cosy, but also light enough to wear on unexpectedly balmy days. Style it with a black long-sleeved top, leather pants and kitten heels for an elevated evening look; with a simple white t-shirt, tailored trousers, and some chunky sneakers for an everyday outfit; and over a black slip dress for date night. Gilets are extremely versatile, so incorporating one into your wardrobe won’t just help you master the mob wife trend, but it’ll also help you build an incredible winter wardrobe.


Go for gold accessories

When it comes to nailing the mob wife aesthetic, you’ll need to invest in some gold jewellery. As much as we love silver and a diamond or two, when it comes to embodying the mob wife, the best choice for jewellery will always be something gold. Whether you love a large hoop or prefer a vintage-inspired stud, gold earrings are essential when building the ultimate mob wife outfit. We also recommend stocking up on some thick gold bangles and a selection of gold chunky rings. Styling your gold pieces with an all-black outfit will ensure your accessories stand out. The best part? This will work for any occasion – it’s day-to-night dressing, mob wife style!


Lean into leopard print

Leopard print has been slowly creeping back into everyone’s wardrobes but thanks to the mob wife aesthetic trend, it’s clear that leopard print is going to be everywhere this winter. If you’re ready to fully bring back the wild print, add a leopard slip dress into your winter wardrobe that can be dressed up with a pair of satin heels for date night, and dressed down with a simple pair of white sneakers. If you’re not ready to fully embrace leopard print just yet, we recommend blending the print into your wardrobe with accessories. It’s a more subtle way of styling the print but still allows you to fully embrace the mob wife aesthetic. Add a slim leopard print belt to a black leather midi skirt, wear a pair of leopard print ballet flats with your favourite maxi dress, or opt for a leopard print bag to make your mob wife look really pop.   

Now you know exactly what you’ll need to master the mob wife aesthetic, head into Stockland Shellharbour to gather your essentials. Every piece can easily be incorporated into your winter capsule wardrobe and help you create a variety of outfits.
