Skinny Jeans & Sippy Cups Blog

Need some new winter clothes, but don’t know where to start? Here’s some winter fashion finds that I have come across  online and some that I even own! On a budget this year? No problem, I listed plenty of finds that cost less than $50, even coats!

Coats

I love pink so I HAD to get this Fashion Peacoat from The Limited. I bought one in store but some of the buttons were discolored and then they were out of my size. However,  it worked out. I ended up ordering it online and got a great deal. Outwear was 40%, I used a coupon code for $15 off and have free shipping with my Couture Card. I got this $128 coat for $61!!! (Since I have written this post, this coat appears to have sold out, so check your local store!)

When dealing with snow, you may want a hood. This Hooded Peacoat from Victoria’s Secret is fashionable, yet still very practical. Most peacoats don’t have hoods. This sells for $138. If you don’t like plaid it also comes in solid colors.

This Old Navy Frost Free Shawl-neck Jacket is a warm puffy jacket with a knit trim on the neck, cuffs and hem. This is more affordable at only $60.

**Under $50!

If you like longer coats this is a great choice. This Tweed Topper Coat is from Body Central and the best thing about it… it’s only $39.80!! Body Central also has a cute Houndstooth belted coat for the same price.

Sweaters

Every winter I see Fairisle sweaters are popular, and this year is no exception. The Limited’s Fairisle Sweater Topper screams winter to me! I bought this sweater to wear with skinny jeans and gray sweater boots that I have. I love the gray and navy color combination and it looks cute layered over a plain gray long sleeve tee. This sweater costs $64.90. The thick knit on this can pull easily so be careful. If you do get a pull just use a pin to push it back in and pull it from the inside of the sweater, it will look good as new.

This pink Marled Cowlneck sweater from The Limited is a must-have for me!!! I bought it, have worn it, and love it. It’s warm, cozy, comfortable, and fashionable. You don’t have to wear boring colors during winter, bright colors are in.  If it’s too cold for short sleeves, wear a white long sleeve T-shirt underneath this. You can pair it with dark jeans or white pants. This is my new favorite sweater! I love it and even my boyfriend said he liked it. This sells for $69.90.

**Under $50!

I would say this is another must-have item! I bought this Button Bateau sweater from The Limited in two different colors. It can be casual or you can dress it up for work. It comes in 6 great colors and is comfortable. It’s more of a relaxed fit, so it’s flattering for different body types. The button-detailing on the sleeves is simple, but cute. I bought this in light gray and blue, but I like all the colors. The light purple is so pretty and different. This sells for $49.90 and I can’t imagine anyone not liking it.

I always love sparkly stuff, but when the holidays are approaching metallic sweaters are a major trend. I fell in love with this Metallic Cowlneck sweater when I saw it on the Victoria’s Secret website. I just received it in the mail and it doesn’t disappoint. This would be really nice to wear to a holiday work party because it’s sparkly, but not revealing. This sweater has ruched sides, so it isn’t flat and tight on your stomach. Ruched sweaters are a good choice if you are a little self conscious about your tummy. The light blue metallic color is so pretty and unique.  This sweater comes in 3 other metallic colors and sells for $49.90.

Not everyone is into pink and metallic. So, if your style is a little more on the simple side, a solid color turtleneck can always be a good way to go. Body Central’s Ribbed Turtleneck is a great essential to have. You can wear it with jeans, or with dress pants for work. It comes in 5 different colors and only costs $16.80. I’m not a huge fan of turtlenecks, but I know a lot of women are.

Cardigans

I have a couple Victoria’s Secret Angel Boucle Cardigans from a few years ago. They are a different style than the one pictured, but they are so warm and comfortable. If you live somewhere that gets really cold in the winter, the Boucle cardigans and sweaters are sure to keep you warm. The one pictured comes in 6 colors and costs $59.50.

**Under $50!

Along with fairisle and marl, Space-Dye cardigans and sweaters seem to be a popular trend this year. This Space-Dye Open-Front Cardigan from Kohl’s looks comfortable and stylish. It currently on sale for $40.60.

 The Flirty Cardi sweater from Victoria’s Secret comes in 20 different colors including solids, colorblocks, and marl. Whether you like neutrals or bright colors, there’s one for you. This fun cardigan with an asymmetric hem is cotton and cashmere. You can wear it open or with a belt. This is on sale for $49.50. (Marl- $69.50)

Prefer cardigans that tie? Here’s one from Body Central. This Duster-Style Cardigan is long and has ruffle details to keep it looking feminine. It’s made out of acrylic and wool, only comes in gray and black, and sells for $26.80.

Accessories

**Under $50!

I love this scarf. It’s warm, cozy, and a rainbow of colors. It also comes in yellow and pink. I bought the multi-colored one because I love colors and it will go with so many different outfits. The Multi Marl Scarf from The Limited costs $36.90.

**Under $25!

If a $36 scarf is a little out of your price range, check out this Loose Knit Infinity Scarf from Forever 21. It comes in 4 fun colors and only costs $9.50. For that price you can afford to buy one for yourself and one as a gift. Forever 21 also has a Metallic Knit Infinity Scarf  for only $8.50!

Do you hate when you want to send a text and have to take off your gloves? These texting gloves from The Limited will solve that problem. They are a sweater knit material and have flip top covers for thumbs and index fingers. They cost $24.90 and come in 3 different colors. I think I want to buy these in black! These gloves make a great gift or stocking stuffer!

If your style is a little more quirky or you just love cupcakes, you’ll love these Fingerless Cupcake gloves from Forever 21. They’re fingerless so, they’re not great for playing in the snow. However, they only cost $5.80!

I could go on and on with pictures of cute finds. Check out the websites I’ve linked and find even more great items! (All photos courtesy of the companies/websites mentioned.)

If some of these items seem a little pricey, look out for sales. Stores like Kohl’s and The Limited are always offering sales, coupons, and promotions. Sign up for e-mails to get discounts as well. Stores like Target and Walmart also have winter clothing that may be more in your budget.
