If you prefer a more fitted style, reviewers suggest sizing down!

Promising review: "I am obsessed with this! It’s the perfect fall/winter cozy oversized cable knit sweater. Perfect length for high or mid-waisted jeans and true to size. I normally wear an 8 but went one size up for a looser fit... the medium would have been perfect for a more fitted look. Material is SO soft. Can’t wait to wear this over the holidays, looks and feels like an expensive designer one!" —Bee Dav
Get it from Amazon for $25.59+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and 43 colors).
2. A pair of legging-style joggers designed to keep you comfy and looking chic year-round. You can wear them to run errands, workout, work from home, whatever. And the best thing about slim-fit joggers? You can even dress them up with the right top, jacket, and shoes!
Promising reviews: "These joggers are as good as my Lululemon Align joggers and much much cheaper....can buy three of these for one LLL." —Debra
"These are literally the best leggings/joggers I have ever owned, and I plan to eventually buy every single color. I originally saw these on TikTok and heard they were like the Lululemon ones but cheaper. I've never owned Lululemon leggings, but if they feel anything like these, then I have clearly been missing out. These are soft and absolutely perfect. I love the pockets and jogger style and that they fit like leggings and can be worn to the gym or dressed up with a cute outfit. I need to buy every color of these before they're gone!" —Courtney
Get it from Amazon for $28.99+ (available in women's sizes XS–XL and 16 colors).
3. A long-sleeve bodysuit made with an innovative fabric that some reviewers compare to Skims' for how soft, seamless, and comfortable it is. Plus, it comes an assortment of sleeve lengths and necklines, so you can nab one for pretty much any and every season.
And in case you were wondering, a TikToker actually did research whether this fabric blend is the same as Skims' — check it out here. Plus, some reviewers say the double lining in the torso offers enough support that they don't need to wear a bra!
Promising review: "Are you kidding me? This is the softest most comfortable body suit I’ve ever owned. I got so many compliments lol; everyone did think they were Skims lol, but it’s definitely worth every penny. I love and will be getting more colors!!! You need it." —Wendy L.
Get it from Amazon for $28.99 (available in women's sizes XS–3X and 15 colors). And check out all the styles available in the Smoke Cloud fabric here.
4. A matching sweat set that definitely deserves a spot in your wardrobe simply for how effortless it makes getting dressed for the day. It's perfect for traveling, running errands, and definitely lounging — I mean working — at home. Looking put together and being cozy AF without having to ransack my entire closet? Sign me up!
Promising review: "I rely heavily on retail therapy to cheer me up. What to buy when there's nothing to do and I never leave my house? A matching sweatsuit. I no longer look like I chose my outfit out of a gym's lost and found bin when I'm walking the dog or picking up take out. The top is cropped above the belly button so you definitely need the very high-waisted pants...no mixing and matching unless you're into showing some skin. I will be buying this in at LEAST one more color to get me through this Midwest winter." —Mary M.
Get it from Amazon for $37.99+ (available in sizes S–XXL and 16 colors).
5. A puffer vest just perfect for layering on days when the temperature might fluctuate (*raises hand in Midwest*) or you only need a little bit of warmth while you're out and about. Plus, it's lightweight enough to wear under an actual coat or solo over your fave long-sleeve tops and dresses.
Some reviewers mention sizing down if you want to have a cropped look.
Promising review: "Honestly I think you get your bang for your buck here. Lots of reviews saying the vest didn’t puff up, but it’s important to note that you should be throwing it in the dryer for 5–8 minutes on medium/low heat upon opening. This allows it to expand to full puffiness. I got this as a [swap] for the Aritzia Super Puff Shorty vest because it’s out of stock until May and I wanted a vest for the colder next few months and this will do it! Puts my outfits together nicely and is super comparable to the name-brand ones at less a fourth of the price. It does not have pockets so please note if that’s important to you!!" —Molly Tucker
Get it from Amazon for $36.97 (available in sizes XS–XXL and 20 colors).
6. A ribbed sweater maxi dress featuring a built-in padded bra, so you can look and feel your best without worrying about visible nips, underwire, or lace peeking through!
Promising review: "Buy this!! I was hesitant but I trust KN and bought it. The material is so soft, true to size, and no bra band. It’s so comfy and keeps you warm for a perfect date night." —Stephanie C.
Get it from Klassy Network for $85 (available in sizes 2XS–3XL and two colors).
Klassy Network is a woman-owned small business based in Florida creating unique and innovative apparel with built-in padding.
7. A turtleneck sweater scarf, which technically is a top! This must-have layering piece offers a sophisticated look to your favorite tees, tanks, and even bodysuits. It's also perfect for days when the weather drastically changes from chilly to slightly warmer in a matter of hours!
I own this top, and I love it. Seriously — enough so that I went back and bought the sexier version of it (this one was sold out at the time and only available in two colors, so glad to see it's back). I paired it with a tight-fitting scoop neck jumpsuit from Rebdolls for a March brunch, and it was perfect for the mild weather since it's really only a pair of sleeves and a turtleneck! I also got so many compliments! This winter when it was chillier, I paired it with a long-sleeve tee, another jumpsuit (LOL), and I'm hoping to pair it with a dress when the weather warms up above freezing!
Promising review: "Too cute and comfy! This is so elegant and provides that extra warm without going overboard!" —Cheryl R
Get it from Eloquii for $29 (originally $69.95; available in four colors and sizes 14–28).
8. A faux-shearling moto jacket if low temps won't put a stop to your fashion icon status. A perfect winter alternative to your fave leather jacket, this asymmetrical layer adds a certain je ne sais quoi to any evening fit, be it a trip to the movies, happy hour, or even date night!
BTW, if you plan on layering with this jacket, or have thicker arms or a larger chest, some reviewers recommend sizing up!
Promising review: "I purchased this jacket before my trip to Canada during winter. I honestly thought I might not be able to wear it as often. HOWEVER, it kept me really warm no matter how windy and snowy it got!! It’s beautiful and stylish, the material looks better in real life than in the picture. The inside is super soft and comfy. I would go a size up though. I had enough space to move around and wear bulky sweaters, but the sleeves are not long enough for me to roll up the sleeves like the picture. Still an amazing product, I am beyond satisfied." —Gabriela G.
Get it from Amazon for $69.99 (available in sizes S–XL and 10 styles).
9. A pile fleece sweater that's almost too cozy to be real! Its unique design makes it a cute, versatile top to pair with any bottoms. It may not be the thickest sweater, but if you live in a place with mild winters, it's a perfect addition to your wardrobe.
Promising review: "I love this sweater so much that I purchased the gray and pink colors! I will be purchasing every color in this sweater. They’re amazing and I find any excuse to wear them. The sweater is baggy for the days you’re not feeling 100 or it looks super cute partially tucked into your jeans. 100% comfortable and if comfort is your style, this is YOUR sweater!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $19.98+ (available in sizes S–XXL and 17 colors)
10. A pair of faux-leather straight-leg pants in case you're looking for a more affordable alternative to the viral Abercrombie style. These will keep you feeling warm and cozy with a style that screams *WHA-BAM*!
Watch a TikToker compare these to the Abercrombie faux leather pants here.
Promising reviews: "Perfect pants for the winter and cold weather. The cold breeze is always blocked! I love these and they fit so well!" —Olivia Alvarez
"Love them! They are lightweight and breathable with moderate stretch. Unless looking close you can't tell its not leather. And obviously doesn't feel like leather but who cares. For the price these pants are fantastic. I'd definitely recommend." —Mimi
Get them from Amazon for $49.99+ (available in women's sizes XXS-4XL and up to 23 colors).
11. A slouchy V-neck pullover, so you can keep your cozy aesthetic looking stylish no matter how much the temperature drops. A loose collar puts a sophisticated touch on this versatile top that'll pair with any jeans you own because it's available in 20 styles!
Promising review: "I absolutely love this sweater. It is so so soft and the color is beautiful. I bought the lavender color and it looks just like the photo. It’s slightly cropped, but I can still tuck it in with high-waisted pants. It does shrink slightly when washing, but I love this top so much that I plan on ordering another color!" —Jillian Greenway
Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (available in sizes S–XL and 22 colors/patterns).
12. A full-length teddy coat that's designed with a chic tailored silhouette and oversized lapels, making it the perfect piece to dress up any outfit. Add this to your closet stat, if your preferred winter activity is staying at home (where it's warm), but every now and then someone convinces you to actually leave the house.
Promising review: "I LOVE this coat. I get so many compliments on it. It is so warm and comfortable. I wore it in Chicago in 10-degree weather and walked for hours and never even got a chill. I am back to purchase it in more colors." —lisa cicciarelli
Get it from Amazon for $61.99+ (available in sizes S–3XL and 24 colors).
13. Orrrr, try out a teddy jacket for a simple, cozy look that you can layer under your coat and finally understand what actual hibernation feels like.
Promising review: "I waited entirely too long to buy one of these!! I live in the northeast where we have brutally cold winters. The heat in my apartment is wonky and I'm always cold in the morning while at my desk. This jacket is SO warm, cozy and snuggly. It feels like wearing a hug!! I can't wait until next winter (first time in my entire four decades on earth I've ever said that!) so I can wear it again." —jamie lynn prata
Get it from Amazon for $21+ (available in women's sizes S—3XL and 16 styles).
14. An oversized cotton sweater vest because layering will never be out of style, especially when you can create a cozy fit that exudes sophistication, no matter the occasion!
But seriously, pair this with a casual collared button-down and you're golden.
Promising review: "I put this sweater vest on and fell in love. It is cotton, a good substantial material. It doesn't cling uncomfortably anywhere, and covers the hip and rear. Feels right for fall and winter. I can wear it with tons of shirts and with leggings. I ordered three more vests. The top fits great, and I have room at the hem where I am much more curvy. ❤️" —Margie
Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (available in sizes S–3XL and 11 colors).
15. A turtleneck sweater dress just perfect for whenever you need to dress up during those chilly winter months. It's versatile enough to pair with leggings for lounging or fleece-lined tights for a chic, but cozy style that's fit for anything from happy hour to a modest family function.
And if you're not into leggings or tights, this pairs perfectly with knee-high boots!
Promising review: "The best winter cozy dress. Omg where do I start. I’m usually a L, but I ordered an XL because I was worried about the length. I love this dress. It’s so big and chunky and cozy but also super sexy!!! The pockets are amazing and the material isn’t itchy at all. It looks great paired with tall boots, but I’m sure you could rock some leggings and ankle boots and it would look just as amazing. Totally worth the price. It is baggy for sure, but I anticipated that when I ordered one size up so I could get the length I wanted. I want one in EVERY COLOR. Another Amazon win!" —Ashlee
Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in sizes S–3XL and in 44 colors).
16. An oversized waffle knit top, which is a wardrobe must-have if your aesthetic revolves around staying cozy year-round. Whether running out for coffee, meeting up at brunch, or enjoying a quick stroll through the city park gardens, this top will keep you comfy and looking stylish through it all.
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Heather Braga (that's her, on the right!) owns this shirt, and here's what she has to say: "I have this shirt in gray and green, and it's fantastic! It's lightweight so you won't find yourself overheating if you're running around in it, but cozy enough that you'll also feel snug as a bug! I lived it in all last winter and can't wait to break it out for the fall. Definitely a piece worth adding into your loungewear wardrobe."
Promising review: "This is my absolute favorite top from Aerie and I am so happy they brought it back! It does run big. I’m typically a large and I sized down to a medium and still have plenty of room. It’s a must have piece in my closet." —Jenni
Get it from Aerie for $48.26 (originally $69.95; available in sizes 2XS–2XL and eight colors).
17. A cozy fleece pullover with quilted accents — this top pairs perfectly with your favorite leggings or jeans, so you can create a cute, casual look without freezing the moment you step outside.
Promising review: "I love this sweater!!! It has the coolest button detail that you can button all the way up or have loose like my pics, it’s incredible soft, and it's amazing quality! I highly recommend this!! If you’re on the verge of sizes, just go up a size because you can’t go wrong with oversized right now!" —Stephanie Mason
Get it from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and 26 colors).
18. A fleece hoodie dress in case sweatpants are preferred, but the occasion calls for a little more effort. This cozy piece is perfect for a casual lunch or game night out of the house *and* for lounging about at home. As someone who has owned many a hoodie dress, invest in a pair of knee-high socks for a effortless, sexified look.
Promising review: "Holy comfy! I bought this for lounging around my home and staying warm and I couldn’t be happier with it! I live in Maine and keep my house cool. This sweatshirt dress thing is nice and thick (think old school sweats), roomy, and just perfectly comfy. Best money I’ve spent all year." —Shelby Briggs
Get it from Amazon for $43.99 (available in sizes S–3XL and in 14 colors).
19. A lightweight quilted jacket designed with an insulating material and washed look for a super cozy layer that adds a chic vintage-y style to any fit.

20. A long-sleeve fisherman polo if you need a cozy essential to wear into the office that pairs effortlessly with trousers, slacks, or jeans.

Promising review: "These are so warm but still so sleek! Totally opaque, long inseam, buttery soft, and they've got pockets! I machine wash them in cold water and then hang them to dry. I have two pairs in black and I wear the heck out of them. Worth every penny." —Cassandra
Get it from Amazon for $30.99+ (available in women's sizes XS–6X, three styles, and 25 colors).
22. OR fleece-lined sweatpants, so you can really chill in comfort even when the temperature drops below freezing and you have to take your pup out for a midday potty break... 🥲 And if you don't have to brave the outdoors all winter, these will also keep you cozy in style if you're not trying to blast your furnace all season long.
Promising reviews: "So soft! These are 10/10 and I would buy again. The stitching is great quality. The lining is so comfortable and soft. I haven’t taken them off since they came in today. I’ve never written a review before, but these pants deserve it." —Amazon Customer

Promising reviews: "Warm, cozy, a perfect basic for your closet. About a year ago I purchased the solid turtleneck and fell in love. It is made with very warm fabric, which is perfect for our harsh winters. It is form-fitting to your body. I have purchased about four others since." —Daniela Orozco
"So I bought two black turtleneck bodysuits, one designer and this Amazon one. Honestly this bodysuit holds up wear after wear, is in perfect condition, washable, and great breathable material. Excellent quality compared to the designer one, which was $148. I ended up returning the designer. Size up though!" —Aliya Mathiesen

Promising review: "I love the little front pocket these overalls have, it's very handy! These are some pretty thick overalls so they're definitely good to wear in the fall or winter, you don't wanna wear them in the summer or you'll burn up. These fit well but if you ever wanted to go for a more figure-fitting look, adding a belt would help!" —Phoenicia
Get it from Amazon for $30.99 (available in sizes XS–XXL and in seven colors).
29. A fleece-lined half-zip pullover if you prefer *not* to layer while lounging, working from home, or running errands around town.

And a bunch of reviewers might have mentioned it's a great alternative to a more expensive Lululemon item of a similar style! 😉
Promising reviews: "I saw this sweatshirt advertised by an influencer on TikTok. I was blown away by the quality of this jacket!! It’s super soft and it fit perfectly." —Rebecca Slattery

Promising review: "I love that this is a thicker material, especially in the front where it crosses over, and can keep you a bit warmer. It doesn't fit nearly as low-cut as in the product image, and can easily be worn to work without another shirt underneath it. Since it's not flimsy, you can wear this in 60-ish degree weather with just a light jacket, or indoors with no extra layers (I am usually cold in offices so this is really convenient)." —s_jm_sf
Get it from Amazon for $20.98+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and in 15 colors and styles).

I usually order from Land’s End or LL Bean but their price on similar sweater is almost double. The crew neck sits comfortably and the sleeves are a perfect length. Color selection is amazing. I bought one in almost every color. I’m set for the season! 😁" —Justjackie
"Size 6x reviewer. What I like: color is great. Size is fit well, enough ease in the upper arms and bust to be comfortable and length is great. Getting another color." —B. Haroian
Get it from Amazon for $29.40 (available in 20 colors and sizes XS–6X).
32. A pair of super comfy cuffed sweatpants designed with an elastic waist and pockets (!!!), so you can up the ante on your work-from-home uniform in case you need to stand up on Zoom or sign for a delivery.
Promising review: "I have bought several of these pants because they are the most comfortable things I've ever owned. I'm not a fashionista, but I'm aware that wearing sweatpants out of the house is not universally accepted, despite the majority of us doing it. However, I feel confident wearing these with a T-shirt or tank top while going out and about and looking put together. I also got these because I have a tough time finding pants that don't push on my bladder too heavily like the jeans or slacks that I wear to work. I have interstitial cystitis and these pants are soft and fit well enough that I need not worry about any issues arising in that department. I'm not the biggest fan of all of the designs, but I'm sure there's a design out there for everyone. Or you can get the plain ones. Whichever works for you." —Featherpin
Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in sizes S–3X and in various colors).
33. A turtleneck pullover that boasts a colorblock design in case you've been searching for a bold yet sophisticated staple for your wardrobe.
FYI, this top is available with Prime Try Before You Buy so you can give it a trial run if you're a member!
Promising review: "This product is soooo cute! It is surprisingly high quality and looks high end for the price. The structure is comparable to more mid range sweaters I have! The fit is baggy and oversized, which is perfect for wearing over leggings or for tucking into jeans. Would totally recommend this product! It’s an absolute steal for the price!" —G4
Get it from Amazon for $27.99+ (available in sizes S–L and five styles).
34. A pair of fleece-lined faux leather leggings if you want to step out in style for your next GNO, happy hour, or date night, but still want to stay warm and cozy. These — dare I say it, sexy — bottoms will make your comfort effortless, while still allowing you to keep your title of friend group style icon.
Promising review: "These fit me perfectly! I love the matte black because it's just enough pop. I would recommend getting a thin pair of leggings to put underneath, as these can cause your legs to sweat. They are very warm (warm enough for Wyoming winter!), I'm 5'9" and they're perfect length. The waist is higher than a mid rise but lower than a high rise. Only con, it flattened me out in the back. But I personally don't care because I always wear long shirts with super tight pants. But some of y'all might want to know that. Overall, I would give these pants a 10/10 because with faux leather pants, you gotta expect the sweating. These are affordable and super cute. If you're on the fence, buy them!" —SD86
Get them from Amazon for $22.99 (available in sizes XS–4XL and 27 colors/styles).
35. A jogger set that's basically designed for you to comfortably run errands or walk your dog and still look ridiculously chic, even with your hands full. Not to mention it'd be perfect attire for lazy days when leaving the house is simply a suggestion.
