Style 911: I Want A Cute And Warm Winter Coat For NYC

I'm having a hard time finding a warm winter coat to deal with the bone-chilling cold of NYC. I want a cute but VERY warm winter options! Not trying to go out in a hardcore parka or sporty-looking snow boarding jacket. I do not do winter sports and don't want to look like it. Perhaps a list of cozy yet stylish options? Classy enough to walk into an office with but cute enough walking in NYC. It gets cold but that shouldn't require me having to look like "Nanook of the North." —Victoria

NYC is definitely a place where you're expected to look stylish at all costs, even if it's freezing out. So here's what I've learned through the decades about winter coats and this city: There will definitely come a day when you're going to be thankful for your warmest coat, even if it's completely hideous. I've held on to a bright red down coat from the Gap since the early '00s because there is always one day that my fashionable coat isn't going to cut it, no matter how much I layer. The other thing about dressing for the cold in NYC is that your coat makes a huge first impression, so you have to make it count. Even though you should keep your warmest, most hideous coat as an option, that doesn't mean you can't go shopping for a stylish coat to be your workhorse for most of the winter. Get some tips for picking out one that can go casual or dressy, after the jump.
