7 Winter Fashion Trends on Amazon, According to a Stylist

Being a shopping writer means that I’m always prepping my closet for what’s ahead. And with snow, sleet, and slush rapidly en route, I’m turning my fashion focus towards winter essentials. To get some much-needed inspo, I called upon personal stylist Samantha Dawn to spill the seven trends she has her eye on for the winter season. 

Whether you’re on the hunt for holiday party attire or everyday wardrobe pieces, Dawn’s trend predictions have you covered. After she helped me narrow down the wild world of winter apparel, I found corresponding styles on Amazon, where prices start at just $26. Below, shop my handpicked versions of these stylist-approved trends, and prepare your closet before flurries arrive at our doorstep. 

7 Stylist-Approved Winter Trends

Bellivera Long Puffer Jacket with Belt

While puffer jackets are always trending in the winter, Dawn suggests opting for a longer version that adds “elevation and elongation to the body while keeping you warm.” As someone who’s only ever worn short puffers, I’m now sold on this style, especially given how uniform and cohesive it makes any outfit look. You can snag this quilted maxi coat, which features a flattering waist belt and comes in neutrals like brown and navy, for only $90. 

Boaisdus Chunky Knit Scarf

Cold-weather accessories are obviously a must-have this time of year, making a chunky scarf a no-brainer purchase. As Dawn says, this snuggly staple adds “dimension” and “makes every outfit more cozy.” Since the expert prefers solid colors “for a more timeless approach,” stock up on this on-sale option in additional shades like red, gray, and pink. 

Bagkeak Slouchy Suede Shoulder Bag

Suede, one of autumn’s can’t-miss trends, is now “falling” (pun intended) into winter. “I would opt for a suede jacket, booties, or purse as these can be versatile for most seasons throughout the year,” says Dawn. Personally, I have my eye on this slouchy suede handbag, which would make the perfect finishing touch to any winter ensemble. 

Modatope Kitten Heel Boots

Kitten heels, this year’s most practical footwear phenomenon, are back with a cold-weather-friendly twist. “If you were a fan of kitten heels during the summer and fall, it’s only natural to transition into kitten heel tall boots for the winter,” says Dawn. “They’re chic, comfortable, and add elevation with the heel.” 

Franco Sarto Meyer Knee-High Flat Boot

If you’re anything like me and can’t be bothered with heels, flat boots may be more your speed. As Dawn says, they’re “sleek and comfortable” for daily wear. “For example, pairing a riding boot with a straight-cut denim or trouser tucked in gives off Princess Diana vibes that feel effortlessly cool, calm, and sophisticated,” says the stylist. I couldn’t agree more—to get the look, I’m eyeing these Franco Sarto boots, and am considering fully leaning into the equestrian-inspired vibes by adding in a chic barn jacket as well. 

Hoxis Soft Vegan Leather Slouchy Handbag

Autumn’s most popular hues are “still going strong into the winter,” according to Dawn. “If you tend to wear black and want to branch out, brown or burgundy are the next luxurious colors to try without feeling too much out of your comfort zone,” says the expert. Because I tend to wear all-black in the winter, I’m taking her advice by adding this hobo bag to my cart—I love that the shade is a subtle deviation from the typical cherry-red, holiday-coded color we tend to see a lot of this time of year. 

Aisongyuan Corduroy Puffer Vest

My favorite casual winter outfit formula is a pair of leggings, a hoodie, and a puffer vest, so I’m of course ready to buy into this trending style. “Vests have been popular all year, but when you add a vest with a corduroy fabric, it adds a level of coziness in a more fashion-forward way,” says Dawn. Give the outerwear piece a try with this army green vest, which is on sale for $35 and comes in other colors like black, brown, pink, and gray.
