Now that I'm a New Yorker, I've learned that your choice of jacket or coat can make or break your outfit in the winter. Growing up in the Midwest, where driving was the only mode of transportation, outerwear tended to be an afterthought. New Yorkers take the opposite approach. Here, I like to have a robust outerwear wardrobe with every type of coat under the sun—from leather jackets to puffer coats—and I've found all the chicest options for less than $350.
My finds hail from just about all of my favorite retailers, too. There's the luxurious Italian wool coat from J.Crew's outerwear sale that's still miraculously in stock. I also have my eye on a fuzzy pink coat that's a whopping $300 (!!) off at Farfetch right now. Oh—and I have a leather bomber jacket from this list sitting in my shopping cart so I can cash in on the celeb-approved trend that's also taking over my Instagram feed.
If you, too, are looking to fill any gaps in your outerwear collection, keep scrolling. This list has a little bit of everything for you to muse over before winter fully arrives, and you won't have to spend more than $350.
If you were to only buy one coat this winter, let it be this one from J.Crew. Made from luxe Italian wool, it's bound to be extra warm, plus its classic silhouette makes it a wear-forever piece. Save even more with one of our J.Crew promo codes.
