There's a time and place when looking put-together is the utmost priority, but winter isn't one of them. Sure, knitwear has evolved to the point where you don't necessarily have to choose between aesthetics and functionality, but right now, my primary concern is ply-count and fabric composition. Between commuting on the subway and fun weekend activities, the goal is to stay as warm as possible. Let's just say that cozy season is in full effect.
A few things to keep in mind when shopping for clothes that will block out the freeze: You want to pay attention to materials like wool and cashmere, as well as woven fabrics. Both are effective insulators that help contain body heat for maximum coziness. But besides the items below being superior at retaining the warmth, they're also just chic. From sweaters and dresses to socks and fleece-lined footwear, keep scrolling to shop all of the soft and cozy fashion finds in my cart now.
