My love for fashion catapulted when I got a part-time job at Madewell in college. Working with the clothing brand allowed me to test out rising trends, learn how to find comfortable jeans that fit, and build a capsule wardrobe that can seamlessly transition from day to night.
Now, as a full-time travel writer, I use my eye for trendy fashion to find stylish pieces that can be used for work and travel. While Madewell will always have a special place in my heart, Amazon Fashion has become my go-to place for winter clothes that are fashion-forward and affordable.
To help you give your winter wardrobe an expert’s touch, I’m sharing some of my best Amazon finds, including fleece-lined tights, joggers, loungewear, and more. Prices start at $17.
Automet Half-zip Sweatshirt
Amazon
Automet’s stylish half-zip makes the perfect companion for airplane outfits and running errands. It comes with clean lines and a smooth polyester-cotton material that one shopper said “makes you believe it’s from an expensive athleisure store.” My favorite aspect is the adjustable neckline that can take it from a snug turtleneck to a V-neck polo in just a zip.
Gloria Vanderbilt Amanda Classic Tapered Jean
Amazon
Jeans can surprisingly be comfy to travel in as long as they have stretch. Gloria Vanderbilt’s tapered style is made with a mix of cotton and spandex for a light and stretchy feel. More than 48,000 shoppers have given the jeans a five-star rating with one reviewer writing they “have the perfect amount of stretch” and are “extremely comfortable.”
Darong Matching Tracksuit
Amazon
A matching tracksuit makes getting dressed easy — especially if you’re rushing to the airport. This outfit is already put together for you and includes a fitted long-sleeve top that you can wear tucked, or untucked, into the matching high-waisted pants. Reviewers love the “incredibly soft” rayon-spandex material, describing it as a “cozy hug” on your body.
Outdoor Ventures Packable Jacket
Amazon
Whether you’re commuting to work or braving the cold to try that restaurant your tour guide recommended, this puffer jacket brings warmth without being bulky. Its most notable feature though is how it can fold down into a compact size that’s small enough to slip into your tote bag without force. That way, you can shed the layers without sacrificing hand space — and you’ll still have enough room to fill your bag with souvenirs.part? The winter jacket can fold down into itself and be stored in your backpack or carry-on without force.
X-Cheng Fleece Lined Tights
Amazon
Fleece-lined tights have been a total game-changer for wearing dresses and skirts in the winter. Before, I used to avoid anything that might expose my legs to the cold, but these tights come with a nude fleece lining to lock in warmth while giving the appearance of wearing sheer tights. That means you can still look cute when you go out without sacrificing your comfort. A shopper wore them on a winter trip in Europe and “felt no air come through them” whenever they were outside.
Lillusory Batwing Sweater
Amazon
A knit sweater like this Amazon find will wrap you in coziness while still keeping you looking polished. This best-seller for women’s pullover sweaters has clean lines and a loose, oversized fit that can be paired with leggings or jeans. So, if you want to start sightseeing straight from the airport, just trade your sweatshirt for this trendy sweater.
Funyyzo Wide Leg Pants
Amazon
If you plan on doing a lot of walking and want to look cute for pictures, these wide-leg pants are what you need. They have an elastic waistband and stretch that’ll move with you while you stroll through a crowded village market or climb your way up a hill to see the city landscape. During a trip to Italy, one shopper considered the pants a staple in their wardrobe and wore them all day. Another happy reviewer loved how they “look and feel more expensive than they are.”
Brooks Adrenaline GTS 23 Sneakers
Amazon
Working long hours on my feet has taught me the importance of wearing supportive shoes. These Brooks sneakers come with a lightweight mesh that stretches and gently forms over your feet for a cozy feel, and uses unique technology in the sole that helps align your body while you walk. Plus, reviewers love the shoes so much that they’ve become a best-seller at Amazon for women’s road running shoes.
