Shear Genius
You can't go wrong with a shearling—it's classic and so cozy. This knee-length version nips in at the waist, while fitted sock booties streamline the legs for a flattering silhouette overall. "It's almost like these pieces are giving you a hug," says O creative director Adam Glassman.

High Impact
This satin evening coat's rich color is a standout—and the shape is pretty special, too. "A princess cut helps create an hourglass figure," says Adam. Bonus: Not only is it the ideal topper for your night-out LBD, but the quilted fabric actually keeps you warm.

Power Puff
Say hello to a puffer with panache. "This takes the traditional material, turns it on its head, and makes it a true fashion piece," says Adam. It's a chic way to do the athletic trend with unexpected color blocking, drawstrings and a mountain bootie matchup.

Crimson Tide
Red is the color of the season, and this coatigan (coat-and-cardigan hybrid) is super versatile. "Sure, it's a winter coat, but you can also keep it on inside," says Adam. "It's the kind of piece that finishes a look." Exquisite draping accentuates the positive and magically minimizes the rest.

Hot Leather
Be ready for oohs and aahs when you come on the scene in this refined coat. It's made of a matte leather, and the minimalist design is free of any detailing, zippers or buttons. "It's the perfect trench—an investment piece that's so simple, it will never go out of style," says Adam. Bright red boots add a dramatic pop.
