1. Somewhere Over the Rainbow: Resolve to stop traffic in 2018 with a fluorescent ROYGBIV-inspired topper that brightens up the grayest of days.

2. Inner Glamazon Unleashed: On mornings you’ve got zero effs to give, why not roll out in a freaking comforter-turned-puffer and sparkly Gaga-esque platforms? It’s a lewk!

3. Fur Topper: We’re green with envy over here. This certified street MVP is FROW-ready with her emerald fur-trimmed puffer and trend-right camo boots.

4. At the Slopes: Adopt an après-ski mentality with one of Moncler’s signature down jackets that will take you from slippery sidewalks to the slopes without so much as a wardrobe swap. Mittens and shearling-lined mountain boots required for maximum impact.

5. Puffer on Fleek: Streamline your winter uniform with a short insulated puffer that can be seamlessly layered over a slinky dress and heavy-duty stompers without any added bulk.

6. Layering Trick: Our favorite HBIC, Tamu McPherson, successfully transitions a plaid maxi skirt from the boardroom to drinks with a bright red padded topper and dazzling statement earrings.

7. Winter Layers: Rocking a big ol’ puffer is not a sign of defeat — especially when you’re equipped with the right cold-weather accessories (namely, a plush camel scarf) to keep you company during your commute.

8. Athluxury 2.0: Word on the street is that puffers and racing-stripe track pants go together like PB and J.

9. Traffic-Stopping Puffer: Who’s dat girl? That would be none other than Sai De Silva, looking chic as hell in her yellow puffer jacket and OTK boots.

10. Michelin Woman: Behold, a real Michelin Woman. Maybe it’s her tartan pants or perhaps it’s her mini yellow Loewe elephant bag, but we approve nonetheless.

11. Designer Swag: Ready-to-slay power red puffer coat? We. Are. Here. For. It. (Reebok classics and Gucci swag ain’t half bad either.)

12. French Girl: Oui, oui! Jane Aldridge’s cropped olive jacket is the definition of rainy-day chic when teamed with an umbrella, lace-up boots, and a femme frock.

13. Sporty Spice: ‘Cause the only way to survive a Snowmageddon is to seek comfort in man-repelling layers that make you feel (but not look) like a toasty marshmallow.

14. Pop of Blue: Just a pop of electric blue will do to enhance your outerwear game this winter.

15. Stunning from the Back: We see you (and your eye appliqué padded jacket), Chiara Ferragni. Wink.
