As a bona fide fashion girlie who spent the first 23 years of her live in sunny Miami, Florida, I'm still surprised that my coat collection alone already outnumbers my entire summer wardrobe. Whether it's due to the fact that I feel alive in the wintertime or I'm compensating for never having experienced true seasons before, I'm embarrassed to admit how many fall coats and winter jackets I've bought after only living in New York City for just a winter and a half.

While pretty fall sweaters or seasonally appropriate boots might be other editors' kryptonite, chic winter coats are mine. If, just like me, you're itching to add a new fall coat to the collection, look no further. After you find your favorite coat, don't forget to add more fall essentials into your wardrobe. Personally, I'm getting half of my closet from Who What Wear's new shopping tool, ISA.

Below, shop some of the best fall coats and winter coats at every single price point. Run, don't walk, before these sell out.
