Head-to-Toe Cold Weather Finds: Keep Warm in Style

OUTERWEAR.
Why is it a Find? “Granny chic” is the fashion term to describe this beauty from Anthropologie, and this ladylike coat reminds us of all that coats can be feminine and pretty. The exploded houndstooth uses deep jeweled tones to play off the rusty brown ground and collar to perfection.
Wear it with: Shown with pants, this coat easily works over a dress, thanks to it’s a-line shape and just above-the-knee-length. And if your dress is a bit longer than the coat, that’s perfectly fine. The mid-tone shade of brown works with black, grey, and navy just as easily as it works with any shade of tan and brown. Of course, all your rich colors of the season – like a forest green cocktail dress or burgundy pants – will look amazing with this coat. It dresses up for a wintertime event as easily as it dresses down for a casual brunch. A scarf can easily be wrapped around your neck and tucked under the collar too, so you’ll always be warm.
Fit Tip: In regular and petite, sizes 0-14, this coat is cut in a modern fit with an a-line shape that flatters every figure.
Alternatives: Anthropologie also offers a solid camel version with an equally chic faux fur trim.

Why is it a Find? The combination of a dramatic collar and fresh belt closure really give this French Connection coat a modern look, proving you don’t need to break the bank for a stylish coat. We love how easy it is to just pull this coat closed and be out the door.
Wear it with: Over a dress or pants, for work or something more casual, this coat’s oversized collar can still accommodate a scarf – just simply wrap it around your neck a couple of time and tuck the ends inside your coat.
Fit Tip: French Connection is a contemporary brand, so the cut is somewhat slimmer, which nicely balances the collar. But it is not fitted, as you’ll see in the additional images through the ‘shop it’ button. The coat gently flares out around the hips for comfort, even if your sitting in the car or on the train for a long commute. In sizes 2-14, if you are between sizes, you can size up.
Alternatives: Add Down is another coat resource that really steps up the style game in contemporary fits – this layered wool and down jacket has a removable down-filled liner so you can start wearing it now…and keep it on all season long.

Why is it a Find? A classic camel coat is simply timeless – and, of course, Vince offers one of the best. The Italian wool is blended with cashmere for a truly luxuy finish that is soft, yet durable. No detail is overlooked, from its tab button at the neck and cuffs to its tortoise shell buttons and lovely lining.
Wear it with: Really, there’s nothing a camel trench won’t look great with. The length hits just around the knee on most ladies, making it truly versatile for dresses and pants, whether you have a more tailored or casual look for the day. And camel looks great with any color accessories from black and grey, to pastels or brights. A plaid scarf will create an English countryside feel.
Fit Tip: Vince’s own site has a great picture of this coat buttoned all the way up, using the coordinating belt, so you can be assured that your neck and chest will be warm. Vince has a modern fit, which is true for this coat. Unlike many of their sweaters, which are oversized, we recommend going with your true size.
Alternatives: For a touch of military inspiration in timeless camel, MICHAEL Michael Kors delivers with this knee-length double-breasted coat in a modern fit, sizes 2-16.

Why is it a Find? Velvet is so popular this year, so it’s the perfect season to get that velvet coat you’ll be able to wear for years to come. The best part of this one? Jane Post has made it reversible. Shown with the water-repellent velvet side out, it reverses to a tech-fabric that is sleek and weekend right.
Wear it with: Velvet is known to be a dressy fabric, so this will become your go-to outerwear piece when you’re truly dressing up in the winter. And with the popularity of velvet right now, it looks just as good paired with jeans or any of your casual weekend wear. The beauty of this jacket though, is that you can always reverse it to the tech-fabric side for a sportier look. Either way, it’s water repellent.
Fit Tip: In sizes XS-XL, Jane Post offers a modern fit, and this jacket has an easy a-line shape that is flattering and forgiving, buttoning to the waist for ease of movement to ensure it won’t cling around the hips.
Alternatives: Jane Post is known for stylish rainwear and trenches. This quilted car coat version is a sportier alternative, while this beautifully rich leopard print midi trenchcoat is a dressier option that looks just as good with jeans. Milly plays up a feminine ruffle accent for a fabulously chic contemporary dress coat. And if rain protection is your focus, this Elie Tahari jacket has a modern fit that can easily be worn over a dress, thanks to its a-line shape.

Why is it a Find? When it comes to puffer coats, it can be hard to not look, well…puffy. Mackage masters feminine style in their line of down outerwear, providing style and serious warmth in one. Luxury details, like its leather belt and trim, coordinate with its functional high-quality down fill to ensure that this coat is going to be your everyday workhorse once it gets seriously cold.
Wear it with: The inner zip-up bib detail will keep your neck warm, so a scarf is completely optional. The length hits mid-thigh/above the knee so it will work with dresses and pants, and looks great with tall boots.
Fit Tip: Mackage is a contemporary fit, further ensuring a flattering fit that isn’t oversized. If you are between sizes, you can size up – it’s offered in XS-XL.
Alternatives: This non-quilted coat from Mackage also offers a sleeker look than a traditional puffer with upscale leather accents, available in black or army green.

Why is it a Find? When it’s time to get truly serious about the cold, look no further than Canada Goose’s Mystique coat. It has all the bells & whistles, including fleece-line pockets and internal knit cuffs. The hood is removable, and the down fill accommodates up to -22 degrees Fahrenheit. This is an investment in your health and winter sanity that you will always be glad you made…promise.
Wear it with: Throw on your warmest gloves, scarves, hat, and a brave smile when you step out into the elements. When the weather drops, you can wear this coat over anything from a suit to leggings, thanks to it’s longer length that will protect your pants from street splash and keep your legs warm. It’s easy to walk since the zipper stops closer to the knee.
Fit Tip: This coat has an easier, modern fit than some other Canada Goose coats, so you can comfortably layer up underneath in your normal size (XS-XL).
Alternatives: This style comes in a bunch of great colors through the ‘shop it’ button. North Face’s knee length puffer delivers in a modern fit and great price to get you through those snowy, cold days, too. In XS-XXL, black or stylish navy, it’s a great alternative if you’re not ready to invest in Canada Goose.

SWEATERS.
Why is it a Find? An amazing sale price on a timelessly cozy Vince sweater? There’s no time to waste – really, it’s sold out pretty much everywhere. And why wouldn’t it be?
Wear it with: The wool/cashmere ribbed fabric uses a couple of shades of grey that plays up the pretty knit. The open shape is perfect with leggings and a long tee. But since Vince’s high quality always shines through, you can easily dress this sweater up as a blazer replacement for a casual or snowy day at the office with wool trousers and a blouse.
Fit Tip: As is the case for many of Vince’s sweaters, the modern fit is easy and loose. If you are between sizes, you can size down and still have a relaxed look.
Alternatives: For some serious Vince luxury, this longer cashmere open cardigan and mid-thigh length insanely soft cashmere open cardigan will make you feel like a million cozy bucks for years to come.

Why is it a Find? The color of this Nic+Zoe tunic-styled sweater is called ‘Rainy Day’, and we think it's the perfect name. On a dreary day, it’s going to pick you right up, thanks to it’s textured cotton-blended fabric that is trimmed with a fuzzy black trim – making it look like a hearty winter piece without the hearty bulk.

Wear it with: One of our favorite things about this Find is the length. Unlike many sweater dresses, this one is just the right length, hitting just above the knee, so it’s office appropriate. You can wear it with tights and booties or sleek high boots. For a truly fashion-forward approach, pair it with over-the-knee boots. It even looks great with leggings – making them leather or suede creates an edgy night out look.
Fit Tip: Eliza J’s fit is as universally pleasing as the prices. In XS-XL, go with your normal size for a body skimming fit that won’t cling. It comes in Petites sizes, too, making this a must-have for shorter ladies, since you know the ribbed bottom hem will hit at just the right spot.

Wear it with: Our favorite way to wear it is with our most comfortable leggings. But over skinny jeans or corduroys, you can easily turn this into a sweater that’s perfect for a casual night with friends.

Everlane’s modern-fitting cashmeres are just lovely – and at an amazing price.

SCARVES.
Why is it a Find? Most often, ladies outerwear is solid, and often neutral. Adding a scarf with a little color and pattern gives it new life and instantly updates it for the season. This Eileen Fisher is mostly cashmere, with a touch of wool so it will be soft and warm around your neck.
Wear it with: The muted, smoky tones of grey and blue pair beautifully with coats in black, and any shade of grey, blue, brown, or camel. It can even be worn with a simple cashmere sweater or denim button down shirt, since it’s not overly heavy.
Alternatives: This scarf comes in a chic camel/grey combination, as well. But don’t feel confined to stripes to add some pep to your winter coat. Pendleton’s southwestern motif uses a mélange of neutrals on beautiful 100% wool, while La Fiorentina uses feminine shades of pink or purple in an eye-catching zigzag pattern - all amazing options.

But thanks to its substantial size, it also makes for a beautiful shawl style over a blazer or blouse, and will also be your best travel companion to cozy up on a long flight.
Alternatives: J.Crew stands behind this style with some beautiful neutrals through the ‘shop it’ button. Nordstrom's own 100% cashmere scarf is also oversized, but narrower for a more traditional wear – in an array of amazing colors. And White + Warren’s iconic 100% cashmere travel scarf is a must-have that we used to carry in our stores and was always a best seller for its soft, high-end quality.

Why is it a Find? When you’re dressing up – or just looking for a touch of whimsy – you’ll reach for this La Fiorentina faux fur scarf. And since it has a slit in the design, wrapping it around your neck is easy as can be.

Even Missoni gives their iconic zigzag pattern has a flare of metallic thread throughout in shades of pink or blue– great looking with just a sweater, too.

GLOVES.
Why is it a Find? We can probably all agree that cold hands are just the worst. Shearling is one of the warmest – and timelessly luxurious - cold weather materials around. Barneys New York’s long shearling-lined gloves are just amazing. They actually have us looking forward to those really cold days.

HATS.
Why is it a Find? With fur all the rage this season, we love Barbour’s oh-so practical application with this waxed cotton, fleece-lined hat.
Wear it with: Whether you choose the olive shown or dark navy also available through the ‘shop it’ button, this hat will work with all your coats, including black and grey ones, thanks to the color mixture in the furry trim.
Fit Tip: This is sized, S-XL, so the wide brim should come down to cover your ears for complete warmth and fit snugly to your head. You can see how it looks on here. This style can be worn for men, too, so most ladies won’t need the XL, and will find Medium works best.
Alternatives: This utilitarian look is not only functional, but so stylish this season. If you need to keep seriously warm and want to step up your style game at the same time, Barbour’s faux suede/fur trapper or this sportier version is for you.

Why is it a Find? Instead of a traditional hat, kate spade new york’s scarf doubles as a hood, so you won’t get hat hair but you’ll still get warm.
Wear it with: Any coat, from dressy to casual, will work with this scarf/hood combination.
Fit Tip: If you don’t need a hood, this will still layer easily as a traditional scarf. Even if your coat has a hood, this can be worn under it, for an additional layer of insulation.

Why is it a Find? Free People reminds us to have some fun with this colorful rainbow stripe beanie. The chunky knit gives it a homemade feel that is so current looking.
Wear it with: What color jacket doesn’t go with this hat? We love it with casual coats, but a tailored wool or cashmere coat will also get a stylish dose of whimsy when you wear them together. It also comes in an ivory color combination through the ‘shop it’ button that looks great with camel, blue, and any shade of red or orange. They both look great with any colored solid scarf and gloves.
Fit Tip: Meant for a slouchy look, just put this hat on and then pull any excess fabric back and down in the back to create the perfect look.
Alternatives: You’ll simply never go wrong with a knit hat. UGG® uses an amazing shade of rich pink for one of our other favorite Finds. And a cashmere soft grey or practical wool version from Canada Goose will never disappoint.

Why is it a Find? Structured hats are very chic this season, and this cadet hat from Eugenia Kim – queen of cool hats – is really well-priced for such high quality and style.
Wear it with: This hat is great for fall and days that aren’t bitter cold. The Sherpa fabric creates beautiful texture and plays off the leather trim so it can be worn with coats and scarves of any fabric – wool/cashmere, technical/down, leather, suede, or denim.
Fit Tip: This hat comes in One Size and we’ve found it fits most ladies just right, and is really flattering to any face shape. If you have a pretty small head, it may be a bit big though.
Alternatives: It’s also available in a cream/black combination to show off the fabric’s rich texture. If this cadet style isn’t for you, but you want something a little more interesting than a basic knit hat, this lady-like pearl detailed beret is the answer.

BOOTS.

Wear it with: With skinny jeans, wide legs, ponte pants, or even a casual dress with tights on a cold day, these booties have a comfortable heel that you can wear all day.

Alternatives: If you want a true everyday bootie that you can wear with work trousers or jeans, these Cole Haan waterproof leather pull-on booties will consistently deliver. And if you like to have some height, Aquatalia’s weatherproof, lined wedges or UGG® leather wedge booties have rubber soles for great traction and style.

Wear it with: On a cold, slushy day, these boots will protect your legs, while you look insanely stylish. They look great with dresses – especially those that are long enough to cover the top of the boots. And with skinny pants or leggings they add instant edge.
Fit Tip: They run true to size, meant for a snug fit in the leg so they stay up.
Alternatives: We are equally obsessed with Rudsak’s fleece-lined, thermal insole, water resistant over-the-knee shearling trimmed boots - adorably fashionable with skinny jeans, leggings, and sweater dresses. For a tall boot that’s not over-the-knee, La Canadienne’s waterproof timeless riding boot and Johnston & Murphy’s low rubber wedge boot offer timeless style and quality.

Alternatives: They are also available at Nordstrom, but not on sale - they’ll usually price match if you call once you’ve placed your order, though. Tory Burch has a shorter, shearling-lined version with an equally practical rubber sole. And you can never go wrong with UGG®’s, especially this laced version to update your basic pair.

Why is it a Find? There are just some days when a serious pair of waterproof boots are a must. And on those days, look no further than these Sperry Top Sider duck boots. They are lined with micro fleece for warmth and the rubber foot has a great sole for traction.

Cole Haan has a lower, hiker boot style – also waterproof – with equally cool fabric and color combinations.
