If Our Editors Could Only Buy 3 Pieces for Winter, These Would Be Them

The coziest season of the year lies ahead, and I, for one, can't wait to cocoon into a plush oversize knit sweater, watch The Holiday (on repeat), and drink hot cocoa until my heart's content. While I'm at it, some online shopping always brightens my mood on a winter day. In the sartorial department, there are a few essential pieces that I undeniably want in my life with winter on its way—a chic shearling coat, knee-high chunky boots, and elevated loungewear are high up on my wish list.
I'm certainly shopping a little more practically this season, and the items I'm loving certainly don't sacrifice on style. Curious to see the must-have items my fellow editors are buying this season, I posed this question: If you could only buy three pieces this winter, what would they be? Their answers were so good I had to share. Scroll below to find out what our editors had to say.
Shop Allyson's picks:
"I think about this coat a lot. It's definitely a splurge, but I think it's something I'd wear for years. And just think of how cute it would look belted. Oh, the possibilities. But that said, this coat is a great, far more affordable alternative."
Shop Kristen's picks:
Shop Anna's picks:
Shop Sierra's picks:
"I can't talk about winter essentials without mentioning boots. I have a closet full of stylish pairs and also a broad collection of practical ones, but right now, what I need is a two-for-one deal. In these JW Anderson boots, I can survive the snow and look good while doing it."
"It's been a while since I felt this passionate about a micro-trend, but after seeing leather gloves walk both the runways and the streets, I'm all in. People have been wearing leather gloves forever, but try choosing the elbow-length style to instantly add luxury to any look."
Shop Bobby's picks:
"I want a statement sweater that's chic and cozy for Zoom meeting and such. This eye-catching style is on my wish list."
Shop Jasmine's picks:
"Without fail, jewelry has been the one thing I constantly put on every day. Demi-fine jewelry is one of the few things I don't feel guilty about buying at the moment. More recently, I've had my eyes on these hoops."
"I'm going through an extended obsession with leather, and when I spotted these pink leather jeans from the sustainable made-to-order denim brand Revice, I immediately had to get my hands on them. I love collecting pieces you can't find anywhere else, and I have yet to see many people wearing colorful leather separates. Plus, I love buying at least one statement piece to get through the season.”
Shop Yusra's picks:
"If there's one thing I always invest in, it's jewelry. My mother taught me that jewelry is timeless and is something that should be passed down through generations, so that's always how I view it. These gold rings by Misho resemble art and have been on my wish list for a while now."
Shop Lauren's picks:
"Some might look at this coat and think it's unpractical, but all I see is the only coat I will be wearing for the rest of winter. Yes, the checkerboard print is bold, but I am confident it will be just the piece I need to liven up my wardrobe that is currently filled with one too many 'boring' basics."
