10 winter essentials we're shopping this season
Ah, peak winter — high time for layering in a new warm wardrobe, bundling up in blankets, and trying really, really hard to fight the uncomfortable feeling of overall coldness.

You may think you know the drill: A couple of jackets, a turtleneck, and a few tube socks, right? But our picks come complete with windproof technology (for those looking for added warmth), 100% recycled polyester (for the more eco-friendly), and steep discounts (for, well, everyone else).
