Cold Calling:
3 Ways to Ease
into the Freeze

In partnership with our friends at

Cold-weather dressing gets a bad rap. Remember Randy’s snowsuit situation in A Christmas Story? Exactly. This season’s offerings of tailored jackets, shrunken sweaters, and well-heeled boots are a far cry from their swallow-you-whole predecessors. Below, three alternatives for staying warm, looking cool, and curing cold-weather closet fatigue in one fell swoop. And you can even put your arms down.

• PUTTING IN THE WORK

  An office-appropriate cable-knit-and-cropped-trousers combination will never steer you wrong, but it’s the chic shearling coat that’ll keep you coming back for more. Just add boots with traction.

• WALKING INTO THE WEEKEND LIKE…

  It’s no secret we’re suckers for slouchy cashmere sweaters. Team one with day-off jeans, lace up your Sorels, and let the heavy-duty puffer (note the waist definition!) do the rest.

• SO YOU’VE GOT THE NIGHT OFF

  Because fancy evenings call for fancy matchups, like a second-date kind of strappy top and slinky skirt. Seal the deal with an overachieving (it’s toasty and tailored) coat.
