The Items You NEED This Winter

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Vanderbilt chapter.

It’s time to face the facts- winter is upon us. This past week of frigid weather marks the beginning of the end for our tank tops, flip flops, and summer dresses. However, this means that we can finally start investing in some key pieces for the winter! Plus, we can stop shaving our legs every day (that’s what pants/leggings were invented for, right?) and feel okay eating that extra slice of pumpkin pie at Thanksgiving… no one’s gonna see a bit of pudge under your hot new winter coat! 

Check out some of my favorite picks for the winter season below- all of them can be found at the Green Hills Mall!!! 

                                                                          Guess Belted Asymmetrical Coat, $198, Nordstrom

                                                                                        J.Crew Excursion Quilted Vest, $110 

                                                                          Lysse Velvet Control Top Leggings, $74, Nordstrom

                                                                                            J.Crew Matchstick Cord, $89.50 

                                                                               Corso Como ‘Samual’ Boot, $169.90, Nordstrom

Well that’s all folks! I know that there are so many other winter items you personally might need, but these are just a few options I believe everyone should invest in. Check out Nordstrom’s and J.Crewat the Green Hills Mall to buy the items featured above! 

Stacey Oswald, originally from South Florida, came to Vanderbilt as a member of the class of 2015 and got involved with HerCampus her freshman year. She became assistant editor that year and is now the Campus Correspondent for Vanderbilt HC as a sophomore. Stacey is currently a columnist for Ask Miss A- Nashville and the life section of The Hustler. She's also very involved in her sorority, Kappa Delta, as well as Invisible Children. Outside of school and her extracurriculars, Stacey finds happiness in many sources, the most crucial being exercise and the sun. She loves to attend exercise classes and is an avid runner; she recently completed the Country Music Half Marathon. She also loves Vitamin D, especially when on the beach- though of course, she only soaks up the sun after applying SPF. A few of the things Stacey couldn't live without? Good food (especially from Sweet Cece's, Bricktops, and Samurai Sushi), great books (The Hypnotist's Love Story is a recent favorite), her family back in Florida, her wonderful boyfriend, and all of the great friends she's made at Vanderbilt.
