The $30 Winter Staple That's Meant To Combat Ice-Cold Temperatures
Though you may not want to think about it, the coldest days of the year are still just ahead. Which means, securing layering pieces that'll keep you warm in freezing temperatures should be high on your list of priorities. Luckily, there are a slew of winter essentials under $100 available at Uniqlo that you can snag before the next big chill rolls in.
Japanese retailer Uniqlo is known for delivering wardrobe staples for all seasons, but its winter assortment has arguably the strongest lineup of styles, to date. And, at the heart of this offering is its HEATTECH collection, which has a wide selection of everyday basics that generate heat from your body to keep you warm and comfortable.
In addition to HEATTECH styles, you can grab pieces like plush fleece jackets and luxe cashmere sweaters for wallet-friendly prices. So, when your coat is not quite cutting it, you can slip on one of the brand's easy-to-layer items underneath.
That said, don't wait until the last minute to strengthen your winter wardrobe. Do yourself a favor, and continue on to stock up on key layering pieces that'll make the next few months more bearable. Ahead, see a short list of Uniqlo styles that will get you started.
