Reviewers say to size down!
Promising review: "I wore this during a trip to NYC. Temps ranged from the mid-40s to mid-50s, and this kept me warm, was comfy, and was cute with all of my outfits. And the best part: It has ample pocket space, so I didn't have to carry a clutch!" —Kandace

Promising review: "This sweater dress is a dream! Not a scratchy material, not super short (especially for anyone with a little more in the back), warm, literally the PERFECT sweater dress!! Some sweaters I don’t like because the wind will blow through the holes from the knitting/stitching but this one is perfect. It looks great on anyone and the burgundy is a stunning wine color that’s great for the holidays! I’ll probably be wearing this to Thanksgiving dinner for sure and more than likely, a Christmas event, too!" —Taylor

Reviewers are saying to size down for a cropped look.
Promising review: "I am absolutely OBSESSED with this puffer vest. It is lightweight and not overbearing, but at the same time, it keeps me warm and feels so comfy. I took the advice of other reviewers and ordered an extra small even though I'm usually a small, and I'm so glad that I did. I love the cropped look that the smaller size gives me. I will certainly be buying this in other colors." —Lydia Spencer
Get it from Amazon for $36.97 (available in sizes XS–2X and 20 colors).

Get it from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and 26 colors).

Promising review: "I love this poncho. Quality of material is good. Love the colors. I purchased this for a trip. I wanted something lightweight, not bulky but would keep me warm on cool nights. It also doubles as a blanket when I am watching TV. I machine wash it, put in the dryer, and it still looks good." —Damian Perez
Get it from Amazon for $32.99+ (available in 45 styles).
11. An oversized chunky statement-sleeve cardi that'll probs also make you want to invest in new tank tops just so you can wear a version of this outfit day after day until the sun returns in April.

Get it from Amazon for $34.98+ (available in sizes S–XL and 10 colors).
12. Spanx faux-leather leggings you can wear on days you want to appear more ~edgy~ but still feel like you're lounging in comfy clothes.
I splurged on these two years ago. I don't know why I waited so long! They're super soft on the inside, edgy on the outside, and just freakin' fabulous. If I venture to any family gatherings this holiday season you better believe you'll find me in these bad boys. I love pairing them with an oversized sweater for a look that's stylish but still cozy.
Get them from Nordstrom, Spanx, or Amazon for $98+ (available in sizes XS–3X).
13. A faux shearling shawl collar coat for anyone who lives by the mantra "the coat is the outfit." This one is most certainly worthy of the hype.
Promising review: "This coat is beautiful! It runs slightly big. I usually get XL clothing from Madewell but got this in an L. This coat is not lined and that's great for me because the inside is not so stiff like other lined pebbled coats. It's stretches across the back and I love that." —JazzyJeff
Get it from Madewell for $148 (available in sizes XS–2XL and two colors).
14. A chic sweater starring an asymmetrical hem, long enough to cover your booty so you can wear your leggings without hearing "those are NOT pants, I can see your whole butt!"
Promising review: "Ordered a small in the white version of this sweater and holy cow! I intend to buy this in black as well, so impressed. This sweater is incredibly soft and stretchy and comfortable. It does run slightly large in my opinion, however, I wouldn't order a size down. This has been washed several times since I ordered it and I am impressed with how it's held up. 10/10 would recommend to a friend! Great value for the money spent." —Elizabeth

Get it from Amazon for $40.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and 15 colors).

17. An oversized knit cardigan in an array of gorgeous colors — ideal if you're someone who *waffles* between being too hot and too cold and loves nothing more than a go-to layering option.
Promising review: "I have these cardigans in three different colors, need I say more? They are thick and heavy, which I like because I bought them for winter, but since it’s cotton, I feel like they will be comfortable in spring and fall too. They keep their shape and quality after washing. For sizing comparison, I have them in S, and I usually wear US S in tops." —Anonimous
Get it from Amazon for $42.99+ (available in sizes S–3XL and 30 colors).
18. A super soft turtleneck sweater you won't be able to resist adding to your cart in many colors — embrace the season and make it your uniform from now through the spring.

22. A blanket scarf that'll keep you nice 'n' warm when you're walking home in snow flurries after a first date that *actually* went well for once.
I have one of these scarves and love wrapping it around myself on cold days for an extra layer of warmth *and* an added touch of style. They usually contain a whole bunch of colors in it so a single scarf coordinates nicely with an array of my outfits.
Promising review: "This is a lot nicer than I thought it would be: It's really really soft and, because it's so big, it's warm, too, if you wrap it around your neck a few times. It's also really versatile: The first time I wore it I ended up using it as a blanket. I wear it nearly every day and have gotten a lot of compliments on it. I might get another one (or two). Love this thing." —madison
Get it from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in 40 styles).
23. A wool blend coat with a grid design and an asymmetrical hemline, so chic you won't even want to take it off when you get to work.
Promising review: "Love love love this coat. I got so many compliments. I’m usually a 12 and they suggested a 2XL but after reading the reviews I got a large and it worked perfectly. The arms are not too tight at all. The back is shorter which I love, I hate to take my coat off when driving and this is a perfect hop out of the car and go coat!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $99.90 (available in sizes 2XS–3XL and 11 styles).

24. A fuzzy three-piece loungewear set reviewers have praised as being delightfully similar to Skims. (Apologies, Kim K!) A must-have if you want to test run the style before potentially treating yourself to the real thing — or just another set of these in another color!
Promising review: "This is by far the best money spent on clothing! I love this outfit, it's so comfortable! I will say the tag was a bit itchy on the top piece so I had to cut it off, but otherwise 20/10. This outfit is what I treat myself to on my self-care days and relaxing moments. Personally, I don't think I'd wear it out and about, but around the house it is just so perfect! And what I look like in my own house doesn't matter, but my comfort definitely does!" —Wendy

Z Supply is a woman-owned small business creating truly the best basics on the planet.
Promising review: "Been looking for a leather-look jacket but motos, blazers, shacket styles I was finding were all so big and stiff. This jacket, however, adds a touch of edge and is super soft and comfortable. Bought a M, might have been able to wear a S, but the M ensures a sweater will fit underneath." —Tina S.
Get it from Z Supply for $99 (available in sizes XS–XL).
26. A fuzzy fleece open-front coat you can indulge in on slightly warmer days when you don't want to sweat through your clothes but still want to embrace the fact it's sweater weather.
Promising review: "GUYS OMG this jacket is definitely a hidden gem. It's so soft and makes you look so sophisticated!! It does shed a little at first, so definitely wash this before you wear it unless you want little specks all over your clothes — I learned the hard way LOL. However, I wore this outfit pictured in 50-degree Fahrenheit weather, and it kept me warm! This is definitely one of those 'blanket- but make it fashion pieces' HAHA I love it so much." —@Kathy_Vu
Get it from Amazon for $51.99+ (available in sizes S–3XL and 27 colors).

27. A puffer coat designed to grow with pregnant women — aka an absolute necessity for anyone who is going to be growing another human during the winter. It unzips as needed on the sides to ensure it'll fit as your body changes.
When I was pregnant with my son I literally didn't have a coat that would close during the entire winter season and I really didn't want to waste money on a temporary solve. However, this year I'm prepared with this fabulous coat. It's just as warm and cozy as any other puffer I've previously owned. The fact that it's also cute is a huge bonus! When I'm no longer pregnant I can simply zip the sides up and wear it as a regular ol' jacket. Genius.
Promising review: "This jacket is great! I love the zips on the size that allow me to wear this jacket early on but still provides room to grow. The material is very nice and wears like a nice pre-maternity puffer jacket" —Bari C.
Get it from Ingrid and Isabel for $158 (available in sizes XS–XL and two colors).
28. A Fair Isle mockneck featuring a split hem and a turtleneck to keep you nice 'n' toasty at all times — it's super oversize so if you want a more fitted look you best go down two sizes.
29. A mock turtleneck sweater and fine-knit leggings set that'll ruin all other outfits for you, sorry. The material is so soft, snuggly, and simply calling your name.
30. A floral pullover because, just like our girl Miley, you can (and should) buy yourself flowers — even if they're in the form of loungewear.
Tee Atelier is a small business based in Dublin that sells playfully and beautifully designed apparel.
Promising review: "Wonderful sweatshirt! Vivid colors, beautiful design, super soft, and really fast shipping. Thank you!" —Stacey
Get it from Tee Atelier on Etsy for $37.50 (available in sizes S–3XL and five colors).
31. A splurge-worthy alpaca sweater that'll prove once and for all you can be both chic and cozy at the same time. Good luck convincing yourself you don't need to buy at least three. 😅
32. A Carhartt beanie that'll keep your head nice 'n' toasty without sacrificing an ounce of style — these are a tried-and-true classic you'll likely find yourself ordering in different colors.
Both my husband and my toddler (you can get your mini-me one here) have Carhartt beanies, so it's only a matter of time before I order one for myself. They really are super soft, stretchy, and comfortable. Need I say more?
Promising review: "Saw this hat on TikTok and decided to place my order! It can get very cold where I live, especially during morning time when I’m walking my dog. I need to keep my ears warm! The material is so soft, and there are many color options." —MHF
Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in 36 colors).

Promising reviews: "I get so many compliments whenever I wear this coat. It always ties my outfits together and makes me feel spruced up. The weight is really versatile, too! It was a godsend when I went to a convention in San Diego. I could wear it over my sleeveless dress in the air conditioning or outside walking by the water and feel very comfortable. I wore it over long sleeved shirts and sweaters with boots in the fall and winter and felt super cute. It's held up well and I couldn't be happier!" —Noneya
Get it from Amazon for $62.99 (available in sizes XS–L and six styles).

Get it from Klassy Network for $42.50 (originally $85; available in sizes 2XS–3XL and two colors).
35. An oversized knitted sweater vest to wear on its own or pair with a turtleneck for the ultimate addition to your fall wardrobe. Keep giving us fashionable-bookshop-owner-in-a-romance-novel viiiibes!
Promising review: "Love this! Well worth the price! I ordered a medium so that it wouldn’t be too oversized and look awkward. And it fits perfect!! I paired it with a white turtleneck underneath, but the options are limitless here. Was surprised at the quality of this item...it’s very soft and thick. Which wasn’t what I expected at all. My only real complaint is the price of the item. However, this item is very trendy, so I understand. Would definitely, and might, buy again very soon!" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "These pants as so comfortable and flowy! I stepped outside of my usual skinny-jean outfit to try this style — and I never want to take them off! They are great casual pants for work, and can be dressed up for the evening with a fancy shirt and heels. They are as comfortable as pajamas, without looking like it." —Nash
Get it from Amazon for $33.99+ (available in sizes XS–2XL, 1X–2X and 32 styles).

Three Thirteen is a Latinx woman-owned small business based in Brownsville, Texas, that sells super cozy pop culture embroidered merch. I own a bunch of items from this shop — they're my go-to for all of my Taylor Swift–inspired apparel. The quality never disappoints and the sweatshirts are sooooo comfy.
BuzzFeed editor Samantha Wieder is also a fan, "I own a couple of sweatshirts now from Three Thirteen and cannot recommend this shop enough. My favorite thing about the shop is that you can order any of the embroidered patterns on either a T-shirt, sweatshirt, or hoodie, and in a color of your choice. And if you're not a Swiftie, that's cool, too. Three Thirteen also offers Harry Styles, Lorde, and Olivia Rodrigo designs as well as a super cool zodiac collection."
You can customize your shirt with an array of colors/shirt options. T-shirts start at $35, come in five colors and unisex sizes S–3XL. Sweatshirts start at $50, come in 10 colors and unisex sizes S–3XL. Hoodies start at $60, come in two colors and unisex sizes S–3XL.
42. An A-line overalls dress that'll look just darling layered over long sleeves and sweaters — this should absolutely be a contender for your favorite winter look.
Promising review: "I read about this in a BuzzFeed article that said best, cheapest things to buy on Amazon right now. I was skeptical because I've ordered from Romwe before and not loved their products (they were sooo small.) This fit as expected, and I got SO many compliments on it." —Brandon Alexander
Get it from Amazon for $26.99+ (available in sizes XS–XL and in three colors).
43. And a knit dress with a subtle Peter Pan collar for anyone who's always wanted to try out the token style but has been too shy to fully embrace contrasting colors — this beauty is calling your name.
