Cottagecore, cozycore, "this sweater is my only personality trait"–core — you'll find it all here ✨.
Promising review: "I got the pink and it's a very pretty color. I love the sleeves on this sweater. They are bell-shaped and have a straight wide cuff at the bottom. Very classy looking. Oh, and did I mention how soft it is? I'm going to enjoy wearing this. If you decide to order, just know that it is very wide so it may feel a bit oversized. Personally, I like that look." —Dst

Promising review: "I love everything about this shirt jacket! I got the blue plaid and it is adorable. I received it yesterday and have already put in an order for the green one. Just have to wait for cooler weather to wear them. I've purchased this type of shirt jacket from retail stores for much more money and was not satisfied with the fit. This is a perfect fit and the hand pockets are placed perfectly. I would def recommend!" —Suzie Linthorst

FWIW, if you're planning to exercise in a mask while traveling, this mask also has the approval of a *ton* of runners and athletes in its reviews, but also runners IRL. I run in Central Park four days a week and I am constantly seeing other runners in this mask. I have two of them in my own run rotation, and I'm impressed not only by how well they stay in place and don't get over-sweaty and gross on long runs, but by how well they wash up and maintain their shape. The straps are super soft on your ears, too. I've gotten to used to straps chafing on longer runs that I was surprised by what a difference this made. I gifted one of these to my dad for Christmas, too, and it's his go-to for walks and errand running. It's just an overall easier mask to breathe in (while still maintaining a tight fit and keeping the people around you safe!).
Promising review: "I love this mask. It's comfortable and fits well on the sides. It's multilayer, which gives me peace of mind, but it's not hot nor does it trap my breath, making it uncomfortable when I'm working out. It washes and dries well, but just make sure you give yourself time for it to completely dry before planning to wear again...as I mentioned, it's multilayer, so it takes a little longer (to air-dry). I also wore this mask on recent plane trips that I took for the extra peace of mind. So glad I spent the money on a better-made mask. I'm thinking of ordering another one." —Kristi S.

Psst — reviewers recommend sizing up for a looser fit!
Promising review: "I got exactly what was pictured and I am VERY happy with it! After reading reviews, I decided to size up because I wanted the baggy look like in the picture, fits perfect! It is so soft and comfortable. The color is amazing, too! Looks like one you would buy from a boutique for $50+! Can’t beat this price!" —Alex Pfaffinger
Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in sizes S–XXL).
Promising review: "Love these! These pants are great. I usually have problems with skinny jeans, where they are constantly pulling down. But these don't. I even walked around the house doing ninja kicks to test them! Hahaha! I love the support band in the belly area. And I can't explain what these do to make my butt look so good. I am very pleased with these jeans. And for the price they can't be beat! Will be recommending these to my friends!!!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in women's sizes 2–28, three inseams, and six colors).
Promising review: "I love these overalls/bibs! They have a chord to nip in at the waist and the legs taper but they also blouse out accentuating my figure. They are very comfortable as well and the fabric is high quality with quality stitching. For the price they can’t be beat. I’ll definitely look at buying from Yesno again!" —TCB & JLUX
Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in women's sizes XS–3X and 15 styles).
Promising review: "Wore this for the first time today and got TONS of compliments on it. It is a very comfortable dress and you can't go wrong with a dress that has pockets. Having gotten so many compliments on it today, I think I will order it in another color. I think it will be really cute with my cowboy boots this fall." —Adam Shields
Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in sizes S–XXL and 14 styles).
These shorts come in a bazillion rotating colors because they sell out so quickly you might blink and miss them. I own a pair in pink (that is me being v cheeky above) and can confirm that they are so comfortable that I genuinely had to look down and make sure I wasn't naked a few times, but still opaque enough to venture out into the world without worrying about everyone seeing your booty. I probably own 10 pairs of bike shorts now (don't look at me), and these are the comfiest by far.
Promising review: "From the comfortable stretching fabric to the integrated design, these are my go-to for exercise shorts or when I want a little more under a short dress. Even the label info is printed, so no bumps, seams or uncomfortable tags to worry about. So comfortable you could forget you have them on." —Larimar
Get it from Free People for $20 (available in women's sizes XS–L and 23 colors).
Promising review: "I have gotten so many compliments on this oversized corduroy shirt! I love that it’s not too thick so you can easily layer over a tee or long sleeve. It even works well as a lightweight shacket. I loved it so much I got it in two colors!" —Leah
Get it from Amazon for $26.99 (available in sizes S–XXL and in three colors)
Promising review: "Love this jacket! Pretty sure I wear it four to five times a week. Love the oversized fit, not too large that it looks ridiculous. Has four functional pockets (two outside and two inside) which are really nice. I’m able to fit my phone, keys, and wallet easily without looking bulky. If I could give it more than 5 stars I would!" —Moni W.
Get it from Amazon for $33.99+ (available in sizes S–L and six styles).
Promising review: "They're SO soft! OK, seriously, I think these are the softest pants I’ve ever touched! They feel silky to the touch! They’re super comfortable and fit exactly how I was wanting them to! Will be purchasing more in different colors! Can’t beat the price!!!" —Veronica P

Promising review: "Can't beat it for the price! I bought three of these hoodies in purple, black, and maroon. They are super comfortable and soft. I bought three larges — one for my boyfriend and two for me. I ordered the larges for me because I like them roomy. They're so great for lounging with yoga pants! I want one in every color." —Trish Lo
Get it from Amazon for $13.59+ (available in men's sizes S–5XL and 25 colors).
Promising review: “First let me say, I am a sock person in the wintertime, hardcore. While socks do not touch my feet during the summer months, I have issues with anemia and once the snow begins to fall, my poor toes get cold rather quickly. I happened to grab these on a lightning deal and they are FANTASTIC! Soft, warm, and the patterns are adorable! These shall be my go-to winter socks for years to come.” —Mombie

Promising review: "As a millennial mom, I’m halfway on the TikTok bandwagon without shame. So when I saw these leggings come up again and again, I decided to trust the sea of people who rave about these leggings and purchased them. I usually buy my athletic wear at lesser prices but occasionally have spent this same amount for something I really liked. And TikTok did not let me down! These leggings are very soft and comfortable to wear and for my nearly 5'9" curvy frame. What I really like is the material pattern stretches over the curvy parts of me really nicely without looking like it’s obviously stretching beyond looking good. These leggings make me feel great, don’t ride down below my waist and belly when I’m doing actual exercise. I started off with black and now want a couple of different colors to add to my athletic wardrobe." —Brianna Storch
Get them from Amazon for $26.99 (available in sizes XS–4X and in 47 colors and styles).
Promising review: "BETTER THAN LULU'S! I saw these on TikTok and waited almost two months for them to be back in stock but they were so worth it. They’re buttery soft and the crisscross design makes me look like an hourglass! They looked small at first but stretched just fine." —Lake
Get it from Aerie for $44.95 (available in sizes XXS–XXL including long and short sizes, plus 10 styles).
Promising review: "One of the best clothing items I've bought for such an affordable price. I'm looking forward to wearing this over fleece leggings during the winter for a comfy but stylish outfit. The elastic waistband works for me and hasn't done any odd twisting even after washing. This material is stiffer and thicker than a lot of flowy skirts, so you can actually put items in the pockets without feeling that the weight causes the cloth to pull or drape awkwardly. This could hold some lip balm and keys, possibly even a light wallet, without worrying that they'll fall out." —Vampire Cat
Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and seven patterns).
Promising review: "This is a beautifully constructed ladies flannel shirt! It's clearly a staple piece that will last for several winters! The length is great. It has a nice long shirttail but may not be so long that you could wear it with leggings. I'm so pleased with the quality that I will definitely be buying more colors! And you can not beat the price point!" —Bonnie Blanton
Get it from Amazon for $28.03+ (available in XS–2XL and in 12 colors)
Promising review: "Love these scarves! They're super soft and comfy, very warm especially when wrapped a couple times, and they're long enough that you can do that. They’re made really well, stitched hems so nothing falls apart, and they don’t shed heavily on black clothes, which is great. My sister and I got these two to share and were very happy with them, especially for the price you can’t beat this purchase. Would highly recommend!" —Rebecca
Get it from Amazon for $9.99.
Promising review: "The reviewer who says 'it's like wearing kittens on your legs' is spot on. Kittens, small teddy bears, whatever you want to call it — these leggings aren't lined with fleece — it's low-pile, stretchy faux fur. I went out to a concert on a miserably cold and windy February evening, with these leggings under a skirt. I'm terribly cold-blooded, and even I felt like, 'COME ON, WIND, BRING IT ON.' There's one potential negative: the seams around the crotch and butt are obvious. " —Amazon Customer
Get them from Amazon for $16.95 (available in 10 colors and styles, plus packs of two).
Promising review: "I love this dress! It is super cute and exactly as pictured. In fact, the length is as long as the model on the picture. The color is unique and the pockets are always fun. The fabric is thin but not see through. I like that I can wear it with flip-flops in the warmer months but also throw on a cardigan and wear it with boots in the fall/winter. You just can't beat the price either. I'm planning to buy another one soon." —A. Zigon
Get it from Amazon for $27.99+ (available in 23 colors and sizes 14–26).
Promising review: "Got this in brown and am absolutely obsessed with it. I was looking for this kind of burnt orange color and this is exactly what it looks like. Great quality, super cozy and warm, great for layering with an oversized leather jacket. Can be worn with leggings, skinny jeans or just thigh-high boots for the no-pants look. This sweater is a must for this fall/winter season!" —I S

Promising review: "I really love this jacket. It is so soft and warm. This one does not have a lining, which is good. I purchased a similar one that had a cheap lining. It wasn't as plush and soft as this coat, so it was returned. I wanted an oversized look, so I sized up. I am usually a M, but ordered the XL. I also purchased this in another color and got a L. Both sizes work for me. There isn't much difference in the L and XL, but the XL is a little roomier. I have worn this in 20 degree weather, and it still keeps me warm. Great jacket!!" —Karen
Get it from Amazon for $27.99 (available in sizes S–3XL and 16 styles).
Promising review: "I wore this to several different Christmas parties and received so many compliments. So soft and comfortable. I found myself touching myself a lot to feel the velvet. I would buy this in every color if I could justify the need." —Kris F.
Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in sizes S–XL and in 12 colors).
Promising review: "Best type of this hat I've owned. I like this particular hat because it's long enough that, if it's really cold, you can pull the hat all the way down and double the fabric over your ears to keep them warmer. Most types of these hats I find are not deep enough to do that. So this is by far my favorite cold weather hat. Carhartt put some thought into this hat, and it paid off. Superior." —Dave
*Another* promising review: "This is the warmest, best hat ever. I've never really worn hats, living in California, but have had to go to Minnesota and other cold places recently for work, and it keeps my head SO WARM. It's soft (I hate even the tiniest bit of scratchy feeling) and the purple sage color is muted and elegant and lovely. I don't think I will ever buy another kind of hat again!" —Lia
Get it from Amazon for $16.99 (available in one size and 28 styles).
Promising review: "Oh my, I love this dress, I love the feel of the material! I love how it fits!! I put this dress on and just loved how It looked on me. What is nice is you can wear leggings underneath it for colder weather/ season, and also still wear in warmer season room. I loved it so much I ordered another one in a different color. Highly recommend, you will love it!!" —jamie hesse
Get it from Amazon for $25+ (available in sizes S–XXL and 42 styles).
TBH, it is the warmest, most functional coat I've ever owned. It's like being snuggled everywhere you go?? A gift that will just keep on giving and giving. Also the POCKETS ON THIS THING. I genuinely feel like a one-woman clown car pulling out all the things I've sneaked in there. I don't use a purse in the winter, everything just very snugly and securely fits in one of the zippered pockets (and the side pockets are SO warm for your hands).
Promising review: "I am someone who was born cold. I was truly surprised at the weight of this jacket and after trying it on, I think it will be good for this coming winter in New York. I am usually a size medium, but I purchased a large to give me extra room for layering. It was actually too roomy so I exchanged it for my regular size and it fits perfectly. Love the style, and the price can't be beat." —Saskia

Get it from Linen Stitch Store on Etsy for $61.18 (available in 21 colors; this item ships for free!!).
I only got these because it was a Black Friday sale because for some reason I am very resentful about purchasing boots (I love sneakers too much to function), but after wearing them all of last autumn and winter I would have paid full price and then some. They're ridiculously comfortable, keep my feet warm and dry, and I felt very secure walking in them on a day with fresh snow and the day after, when the sidewalks were icy. There was no break-in period, either, which I appreciate because I tend to go on long walks. There are no half sizes and some reviewers suggested leaning toward your lower size if you're usually a half — this was true for me! They run a smidge large.
Promising review: "I purchased these to wear while walking my dog 1+ miles daily and wanted to feel safe walking in the snow and ice. The anti-slip tread on these boots did not disappoint. They are sturdy and allow me to walk without any slipping. My feet stay warm while walking through snow and ice sludge in the street." —lovetoshop

Pond LA is a California-based woman-owned, Asian-owned independent product design studio that produces in small, handmade batches from fabrics sourced in Los Angeles.
Promising review: "I fly a lot and am constantly trying to find a hoodie with a big hood to cover my eyes so I can catch up on some beauty sleep on flight. I saw this product on Instagram and knew it would be a game changer. I was able to use it recently for the first time on an early morning flight and let me tell you, it is EVERYTHING I was looking for and more. It’s comfy, cozy, oversized, and the eye covers make you feel like you’re in a whole other world and not packed like a sardine on a plane. My over-ear headphone fit perfectly under it and I got the best sleep I’ve had on a plane — EVER! Like other reviews have said it is big so size down if you want something a little more snug. I have been wearing it every day at home and can’t wait to get the black and blush one!" —Heather G.
Get it from Pond LA for $128 (available in women's sizes S–L and three colors).
Before these sweatpants, I had three rotating sweatpants that each had, like, One Good Thing about them, but weren't overall great. After I got these Richer Poorer sweatpants, I straight up got rid of all the others, because this pair has it all. I'm talking ridiculously soft fabric on the inside, and — be still my millennial heart — the aforementioned POCKETS. I tend not to go outside in sweatpants, but I do occasionally have to run down to the lobby of my building to pick up deliveries, and these make me feel very ~sweatpants chic~ (and the deep pockets are truly appreciated for holding things like my phone and keys and face masks). I can tell these are going to be a favorite of mine for a loooong, long time (unless I end up getting it in other colors, in which case it might tie for my favorite with those lolol).
Get it from Richer Poorer for $76 (available in sizes XS–XL and 11 colors).
Get it from Boohoo for $12 (originally $30; available in sizes 12–24 and three colors).
Promising review: "These are the most awesome and warm sweats ever. Love the fit, fabric, and style with zippered pockets. So nice to have a zippered pocket as I actually wear these to work on cold days. I work outside and love the comfort of this pant. Not to mention the great feel on the inside. I have washed them several times and they come out perfect and do not shrink either. I loved them so much I bought two other pairs in different colors. Only thing is I wish they would do them in blue. These also don't overheat you like you would think...I just maintain a nice warm temperature. They are really a nice quality, too. They arrived totally flattened and I thought what the heck but it is just the vacuum packing and they bounce right out and feel GREAT! Think the sizing was correct, too. So nice to have it be right from the get go. Would be great after a day of skiing or outdoor winter activity to take off the chill and relax in. Bring on the cold!!" —Kindle Customer
Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in women's sizes XS–XL and eight colors).
Promising review: "I’ve been looking for more sweaters and long sleeves as the cold weather is nearing. I saw the reviews on this sweater and decided to pick it up from my local Target. It’s perfectly oversized — just enough to be cozy without swallowing me whole. If you want a tighter fit, go a size down. For $20, it’s an amazing deal." —Sheila
Get it from Target for $20 (available in sizes 1X–4X and five colors).

Promising review: "The reviews were right. This vest is everything!! I ordered my normal size and the fit was perfect. Great quality. Great fit. Warm and cozy. The only thing I was disappointed about is that the reversible fur side doesn’t have pockets. Otherwise it’s a great buy. Might get another color." —TexasM
