It turns out, I actually don’t mind it—I just didn’t have the right clothes to keep me warm. The right materials—like wool, wool blends, cashmere, cotton, or down—are the secret to being comfortable and cozy, even when it’s freezing outside. I’ve finally curated my perfect winter wardrobe, thanks to the essentials below that help make walking in the brisk air more tolerable. I’ve worn it with jeans, dresses, and even sweatpants, and it looks chic, stylish, and polished with every outfit.
