Winter Wear for Under $50

We had our first snow fall here in Massachusetts, meaning it's definitely time to dig out my winter coats, hats and gloves from last year. I also immediately thought I should run out to the store and get a few new things for my wardrobe since over the course of a day it became full-on wintertime.

Here are the first things I grab when I need a winter outfit, each item costing under $50. Winter time makes me think of chunky white knits, pinks and lots of layers...plus a steamy cup of hot chocolate. I built this look around the basic staple, the JCrew Tippi sweater which is a great starting point for any kind of cold weather outfit.
