The past few days in NYC have been
pretty cold. And today, coupled with wind and rain...not the Fall
weather I've been looking forward to. Winter has creeped
it's way in too early! I'm hoping it goes into hiding
again, at least for a little while longer. In the meantime,
I've bought a new winter jacket and dug out my gloves and ear
warmers (can't deal with hats, they make my hair a
disaster!).
What type of winter coat will be keeping you warm this winter? What
are your favorite winter accessories? How much are you willing to
spend on these very key pieces of winter attire?
Here are my picks! Shop them below!!
Coat with a hood and high neck! I got this DKNY coat in black in TJ
Maxx for $75!! It's more expensive online, so I'd check out
TJ first! It's really great and warm, but oddly the pockets are
sewn shut, I need to look into that!
Something about toggle closures really catch my eye, and in that
red...a definite keeper! To top things off, I got this hooded
Michael Kors coat in Loehmann's for $100!!
Fingerless gloves that give
you the option of glove or mitten are the greatest invention that
ever happened to winter wear. My hands are warm when I'm
waiting for the bus, but I can flip the top off in a moments notice
so I have plenty of time to grab my metro card!
And lastly, those ear warmers I was talking
about...they are so toasty!! You can buy them here for $17.50,
which is totally worth it. But street vendors in the city sell them
for $5!! A great investment if you ask me!!
Now you're all suited for the cold! Good luck out
there!!

I pretty much have things I purchased last Spring. I've done that for years now and surprisingly the same exact coat is now $150. more.
My daughter purchased a jacket from Ambercrombie & Fitch, she also purchased it in the Spring and saved.
We've tons of scarves and gloves! I'm ready! And just love this weather! Btw... My brother says it snowed yesterday in Mahopac and he's only 20 min. Nth. of me! So cool. Btw... Next week temps will go up in the 60's!

I have scarves that I can wear for different times of the year. But I especially love this new red set that I got. It's such a thin silk and I can wear it year round...I love the new coats that are out this year.
