Promising reviews:"Impressed with the quality of the fabric. True to size and soft (not itchy); very happy with the purchase." — Rach
Price: $13.75 (originally $25; available in sizes XL–4X and four colors — not all color variations available in all sizes)
4. A faux-suede fluffy vest ready to elevate any outfit like — *clicks fingers* — that. This exudes high-fashion dressing without the high-fashion price tag. With its mid-length cut, you'll get the perfect hip-skimming fit, letting you wrap yourself inside while comfortably keeping your hands cozy in the built-in pockets.
Target
5. Wide-leg sweater pants that look like they were cut from the softest wad of cashmere (and feel like it, too!). Finding these folded up in your dresser will perk up any WFH week as they'll engulf your legs in so much softness and comfort that you may not dread opening up your inbox on Monday morning.

Promising review:"Bought these to stay warm during cold Mississippi nights. I washed it in cold water and dried it on low. Pajamas fit perfect and are very soft and comfy; they kept me quite warm. The matching sweater is so lovely. I like that this can double as pajamas and loungewear. I bought two sets!" — Melissa
6. And a coordinating pullover sweater to complete your new ~luxe~ loungewear look. Featuring an open V-neck and exposed piping, this will be a welcomed addition to your separates collection.
Target
Promising review:"Super soft and comfortable sweater. I bought the set and have worn it together as loungewear and separately with jeans. It also washes well. I bought an XS and it's still a bit big but fits how I like it. I'm 5'3' and 112lbs for reference." — Customer
7. Fuzzy slide slippers I'm going to need you to pay attention to, because if you're a fan of the open-back shoe style, you're going to fall ~head over heels~ for these. Reviewers note how comfy they are thanks to their cushioned insole and sturdy outsole — which give them the ability to be worn both in and out of the house.
Target
Promising review:"These slippers are so cute!! So soft and comfortable however size down and you'll be good. I bought a few colors to wear out as a sandal in the spring with a satin skirt or dress and an oversized cardigan or jean shirt. The possibilities are endless for these slippers. Thank you Target!!" — Neke
8. A short-sleeved collared pullover available in either a green or sophisticated pastel blue rugby stripe that pairs wonderfully with winter's most stylish fabric: leather. Whether it's skirts, pants, or jackets, this sweater is ready to be coupled up for cuffing season.
Target
9. A stylish puffer featuring a shiny outer shell and a high collar that you can nuzzle inside of as you traipse through the chill to get to brunch plans, run errands, or head out on a sunset dog walk.
Target
Promising reviews:"I love this jacket. It keeps me warm in 30-degree weather. It looks so cute. Fits perfectly." — jsmith1129
"This jacket is very warm and lightweight, considering how puffy it is! The color is vivid and perfectly what I imagined! I did size up two sizes because I wanted to layer things under and I'm glad I did. It helped with the shortness of the jacket itself. Overall super cute." — KikiKak3s
10. High-rise tapered joggers designed with a thick, wide waistband that looks like they were plucked out of a high-end athleisure brand's lookbook. So long, threadbare college sweats — we're graduating to this sleek, pill-free pair.
Target
Promising review:"They keep me warm and comfortable, and I like how thick the waistband is. I love them so much I actually own five pairs. If Target releases more colors, I will be buying five more pairs. They keep me warm and are comfortable." — Anna
11. A fuzzy turtleneck sweater available in a sumptuous shade that'll pair well with a glass of red in hand. You can also grab it in a smoky gray or a whimsical Fair Isle pattern that all feature a looser, snugglier neckline — and look a lot more expensive than their under-$35 price tag.
Target
Promising review:"People are surprised when I tell them that I got it from Target. It looks more expensive than it is. Super warm and cozy, and slightly cropped, but not in a way that would make you feel cold in the winter. The softest turtleneck I own. Get it before it goes." — Lena
12. A mini crescent bag to add the perfect dose of coziness to any cold-weather outfit. This trendy shape looks so high-end that no one who hearts your OOTD post will believe that you picked it up for less than the price of a Sweetgreen salad. (The satisfaction you'll get with this will last a lot longer than you'll get with that, btw.)
Target
Promising review:"I bought this bag in the faux shearling style and was so pleased to see a very near style like this on the Ralph Lauren website priced at over $500! So this is a great choice for the price!" — Lucy
Price: $12.75 (originally $15; available in three styles)
13. A button-up cardigan that's seriously chic when paired with casual denim and your favorite jewelry. Rock this at work or weekend brunches for a layer that'll keep you warm and looking ultra elegant. (Just peep those extended sleeves!)
14. Velvet cargo pants you can slide into effortlessly and look like you just stepped out of a magazine photo shoot. Their luxurious feel will be a go-to all season long, as they're easily styled with heels, sneakers, or ballet flats. Perfect for days when beginning-of-the-week brain fog sets in!
Target
15. An open-work sweater so darling for a street-style picture day, your followers will think you scooped this up at a fancy department store. Unbeknownst to them, you'll have snagged this breezy marvel for less than $30.
Target
Promising reviews:"So cute with a tank underneath! Very stretchy knit, so I would recommend sizing down even though it looks small on the hanger." — Delly
"It is way cuter than I expected it to be. I wore it over a strappy black dress for Thanksgiving." — MetaJenni
17. Faux-shearling clogs you'll love to stomp around in on a sunny winter's day. Featuring an indoor/outdoor sole, you can wear these while grabbing the mail in your jeans or with some sweats and your feet up in front of a Housewives rerun.
Target
Promising review:"Obsessed! This is my new favorite piece of footwear. They seem to run a tad big; I usually wear 9.5 or 10. I ordered the 9, and it is absolutely perfect. I will be living in these all winter!" — Cozy as Can Bee
18. A fuzzy V-neck cardigan that'll look glorious with denim and leather alike. Fancy enough for hosting and cozy enough for a night in, you'll be so happy you carted this blanket-like softness.
Target
Promising review:"This sweater is so soft and perfect dressed up or down. I receive so many compliments when I wear it! No one can believe it's from Target." — Molly
19. A knit maxi skirt perfect if you're sick of only wearing pants to work and gatherings. Its high-rise fit and elastic band will make you forget all about fussy zippers and buttons that, quite frankly, just end up digging in after hours of sitting.
Target
Promising review:"I was pleasantly surprised at how great this skirt fits. It is super stretchy, has great length, and hugs all the curves. This skirt can be worn with flats, sneakers, ankle booties, etc. So versatile!!" — OnTrend
Price: $13.75 (originally $25; available in sizes XS, L–4X, and two colors — not all colors available in all sizes)
20. An expensive-looking zip-up hoodie designed with thumbholes that, IMHO, are a game-changer for cold weather when you want some extra, over-the-wrist coverage. Not to mention the high zip-up neck that's perfect for shielding you from the wind when you're heading to and from the gym or just catching up with your neighbor across the street.
Target
Promising review:"This sweatshirt is so warm and has just the right amount of thickness. The cropped look makes it easy to pair with a tank top underneath or a vest overtop. It's a perfect price point, too." — Chels
Price: $25 (available in sizes XS–4X and four colors — not all colors available in all sizes)
21. A zip-front faux-fur leopard print jacket to offer some casual coziness that looks like a million bucks. Take on this season's hottest trend with something you may never want to take off — with its soft touch, shorter fit, and not-so-stuffy sleeves, you'll find so many reasons to reach for this fluffy fleece upgrade.
Target
Promising review:"Very pretty. Fur is soft and I like how the sleeves are loose, not gathered at the wrist. It's definitely cropped, but I think it's adorable. No fur on the inside, but that makes it easier to zip." — Sh
Price: $49 (available in sizes XS–4X and three colors — not all sizes available in all colors)
