As someone who considers winter her second favorite season, I think I have a good grasp on winter fashion that is practical yet stylish. So whether you’re heading to an adorable winter town, hitting the slopes, or simply just visiting somewhere cold – you’re going to need a winter packing list.

I recently went on a weekend trip with my friends to the Catskills and really feel like I nailed the whole winter weekend getaway thing. Obviously there are a couple of things to consider: Will you have a car? Will you be flying? How long is the trip? What are the daily temperatures?

Winter Packing List

Packing for a winter destination can be tough, but I promise it doesn’t have to be! We know our winter items are going to be bulkier and take up a lot of space, BUT I’m here to help you get the most out of your suitcase. This winter packing list will not only keep you warm, but also stylish – what more can you ask for?!

I’ve actually been to a couple of winter destinations – Ice Castles in New Hampshire, Lake Louise (funny enough, also saw the Ice Castles there too)…and obviously New York City gets some pretty harsh winters. Most recently, I took a trip to the Catskills where the high was 20 degrees or below every day.

Winter packing list:

• Coats & Jackets

• Sweaters – preferably wool & cashmere!

• Leggings

• Layering Options – t-shirts!

• Jeans

• Cold weather accessories

• Winter boots
