The temperatures are dropping fast. That being said, you still have a few weeks to buy your warm jacket and weather-appropriate boots. But these aren’t all you’ll need. I hate to sound alarmist, but you’re going to need base layers, burly pants, waterproof boots and a bunch more.

How deep your winter wardrobe must be of course depends on where you live — and how cold it gets, much snow you get and fast the winter winds whip past you on your way to work. Play it safe. Stock up.
