Recently, we've shown you some of this winter's top trends, divulged our all-time favorite coat brands for the elements ahead, and gone on ad nauseam about the cold-weather selection at Nordstrom, but did you think I'd let the new season officially commence without an epic affordable shopping roundup? Never. That's why I found everything you could possibly need for the year's chilliest months, from boots and beanies to coats and dresses, all for—you guessed it—under $49. So whether you're looking to upgrade a few old items, fill some wardrobe gaps, or do a major overhaul, I've got you covered.
Of course, I can't take all the credit. I had some help from my favorite brands and sites, like Zara, Mango, H&M, and even Amazon, because it wouldn't be an affordable shopping roundup without them. As always, they really delivered, so if you're ready to get started, just keep scrolling to shop all 49 of my epic under-$49 finds.
I'm highly considering adding this to my extensive collection of black puffers.
I feel cozier just looking at it.
Layering will never be the same.
Swap these in for your usual jeans all season.
These soles are perfect for avoiding the elements.
I'm loving polo-neck sweaters right now.
I think it's clear why our readers are loving these.

Of course, you need the white, too.
High-waisted, straight-leg jeans are essential in any season.
The leather detail makes these so much cooler.
When paired with the matching sweater, these pants can take you anywhere.

Anyone on the East Coast should really consider this one.
One can't have enough cardigans this season.

Now, you're ready for winter.
Pinstripe blazers will never go out of style.
No one has to know how comfortable your pants are.
Basic but not boring.
DId I just stumble upon an Amazon gem?
Take your coat off and wait for that wow moment.
A vibe.
This comes in nine colors, and all I can say is good luck choosing just one.
These felt important.
Mixed metals done right.
I want anything in this shade of green.
Black blazers are nice, but sometimes, you just want to switch it up.
