Thinking about what to wear in snow? A seriously amazing winter coat is your #1 best friend.
While a quality coat can be pricey (at least $150 for a good one, and you can expect to spend up to $350 on a really good one), I would definitely say it’s worth the money. Your little zip-up fleece jacket just isn’t going to cut it anymore. Look for a parka that extends past your hips. You’d be surprised how much warmer those extra inches of fabric can keep you!
Again, these can be expensive, but it’s very important to get the right one. This is something you’ll be wearing every single day during the winter, so invest in one with a style you love, that will last you for years.
