Fashion-lovers know that come winter, their coat is the statement-making piece of their outfits. You could be wearing couture or pajamas, but the coat speaks first, and it's important to get it right. When the temperature dips, you want to have a few styles at the ready, and these are just a few of the stylish winter coats we like this year. With all of the unusually cold temperatures and winter storms that have been sweeping across the US this season, we're always in the market for a new jacket that'll help us to stay warm and comfortable.

So, what exactly are the styles we'll be wearing this year? Right now, we're into classic trench coats, cozy teddy coats and wool coats, a little fringe moment, and ultrawarm puffer coats for when it really gets cold and you need to pack on the layers. We found great options from luxury brands like Moncler, as well as more affordable coats from Free People and Amazon. When it comes to coat colors, we gravitate toward neutrals because they're so easy to pair with a variety of outfits, but we're the first to admit that sometimes something bright or eye-catching is fun. And that's why there's something here for everyone. From long coats to short, cropped styles, start the new year with your best coat forward and shop our picks for the best winter coats ahead.
