It's out with the old and in with the new...cold-weather clothing!
The
air is brisk, hot toddies are flowing and while you may be busy
shopping for gifts, it's time to take a break and update your own winter
wardrobe. Before you replace your favorite turtleneck or invest in
another denim jacket, take inspiration from the stars, who have strolled
into the season in closet staples we never thought to try.
For instance, Kendall Jenner's
Balenciaga coat is a high-fashion stunner, but pairing the draped look
with bulky trainers, like her Yeezy sneakers, shows a nice design
contrast (not to mention, she must be super comfortable).
Reese Witherspoon
also shared a low-key way to incorporate a metallic, festive material
into your outfit without wearing mistletoe over your head. If you're
really set on just updating your tried-and-true denim jacket, do like Selena Gomez and add a layer of shearling for extra warmth.
While
it is the season of giving, don't forget to treat yo' self. Luckily, I
rounded up this season's must-haves, with options all under $100!
Sofia Richie
Forget the Labor Day rule—white cropped trousers are
on-trend, in season and inherently festive, as evidenced by Sofia. Opt
for a high-waist pair to tuck in all your turtlenecks and cashmere
sweaters.
Reese Witherspoon
Leave it to the A-lister—and Southern belle—to bring
back brocade in the most delicate way: as accents on her coat.
Accessorize your winter wear and jackets with the textured, typically
metallic fabric.
Eva Longoria
They say your head releases the most heat. If that's
the case, protect that body warmth—and cover any bedhead—with a
wide-brim hat, like Eva did on a cold, rainy day.
Sophia Bush
Red may be a bold statement, but during the holiday
season, it's the perfect festive color. How do you avoid looking like
Elmo? Pair a red sweater with an embellished bottom. The color will
contrast nicely against some texture.
Elsa Hosk
Va-va-voom. The knee-high and over-the-knee boot
trends are not going anywhere anytime soon. This season, celebs and
models alike are opting for fun colors with their footwear, especially
taking a liking to red and white iterations. Just make sure to pair your
boots with shorter-hem
sweater dresses or maxis with slits, so that your steppers can be seen in all their glory.

Hilary Duff
It's leggings season. Like the
Younger star
proved, you can wear them out casually with a sweater or dress them up
for a night on the town—it's a winter essential for a reason. While you
have so many options, be kind to the universe and its creatures and opt
for faux or vegan leather.

Tracee Ellis Ross
Who knew a crewneck sweatshirt could be fashionable? The queen of couture and
Blackish star did. The trick here is to style it under a structured, print coat or jacket.

Selena Gomez
Denim jackets are an all-year wardrobe staple, but
add a shearling liner or collar to the mix and you're decidedly ready
for the winter cold.

Rebel Wilson
You may have a penchant for all black, but even dark
souls—or brilliant comedians—need to spice up a monochrome ensemble.
Follow in Rebel's festive footsteps and invest in a comfortable pair of
metallic loafers. You'll be surprised how much of a difference it
makes.
Katherine McPhee
Whether you're wearing
layers or
a mini dress, an oversize coat will a) keep you warm and b) bring a
level of sophistication to the outfit. Just make sure to opt for a thick
iteration that almost drapes over you.
Michelle Dockery
Believe it or not, but leopard is quickly becoming a
neutral. This winter season, celebs are turning to the fierce print to
spice up their most neutral ensembles.

Kendall Jenner
The days of the sleek sneaker is hardly over, but
thanks to It Girls like Kendall, the practical trainer—with its bulky,
almost-dated design—is back on the rise. Just remember to pair it with a
fashion-forward looking piece to contrast the retro feel.
Jennifer Garner
You can't step into the winter season without a pair
of velvet shoes. Crush the holiday circuit like the A-list actress in a
pair of platform, open-toe steppers.
Steve Madden
Insomnia, $99.95
Victoria Beckham
These statement earrings prove that David Beckham's
other half will forever be Posh Spice. Make sure to throw your hair up,
too, so everyone can see your glamorous accessories.
Kourtney Kardashian
Release your inner edge with a trendy statement
jacket. Two words to describe Kourt's motorcycle jacket: wardrobe
staple. All you need is a black tank to go under and you're instantly
styling.
Jennifer Lopez
A crucial, but often overlooked, garment is the
puffer vest. When the season's transition, you often forget this extra
layer to keep you warm. Bonus points if you manage to match your beanie
to your vest, like J.Lo.
Vanessa Hudgens
Now, you really don't have an excuse to run. Stay warm in winter activewear, as you burn off all those holiday cookies.

How do TV vampires always manage to look so good? This
Vampire Diaries star may keep all her secrets in this oversize clutch.

Jaimie Alexander
Black combat boots are the definition of winter essential. Opt for a bulkier iteration, like the
Blindspot star's, to ground an all-black look.
