On especially chilly days during the wintertime, it can be hard to drag yourself out of your PJs and put on actual clothes. We all just want to stay cozy when the temps are below-freezing outside. But some days, you have to get dressed and leave the house. So if your besties are begging you to join them for a holiday shopping spree and movie night or you've got a presentation for that tough-to-impress professor, you'll want to have some stylish winter fits in your arsenal that look cute and rival your fuzzy sweats in comfort and cuteness.
To make it easier to get dressed on even the coldest days, we've rounded up key pieces you can mix and match to create cool plus-size outfits that will work for everything you have going on this season. Layering is the key to staying super warm when braving a 15-minute trek across campus while avoiding sweating to death in your over-heated classroom. In order to layer bulky sweaters, scarves, vests, and coats without feeling like Chandler in Friends yelling “Could I BE wearing any more clothing?!” you'll want to stock up on a few important pieces to get you through the coldest months of the year. A cute, IG Story-worthy sweater in a neutral color will become your grab-and-go look on mornings when you hit snooze one too many times, and a wool turtleneck (surprisingly warm and not itchy, despite what you may think) is the perfect vehicle to help you continue wearing your favorite tanks and tees without freezing. Lastly, invest in one warm statement coat that speaks for itself — even when your entire outfit is covered.
Once you’re armed with these essentials, you’ll be putting together toasty-warm, plus-size winter 'fits in your sleep in no time at all. Here are some of our favorite looks.
