Winter in Wisconsin calls for warmth, comfort and style. When temperatures drop, your wardrobe should rise to the occasion with pieces that keep you cozy without sacrificing personality. The best part is that you can build a functional and fashionable cold-weather wardrobe with budget-friendly finds from Goodwill NCW. Whether you are layering up for your daily commute or getting ready for weekend adventures, our stores offer a wide range of winter staples waiting to be discovered.

Start with Layers

Layering is the key to staying warm. Look for long-sleeved basics, lightweight sweaters and thermal tops that add comfort without extra bulk. These pieces are easy to mix and match, giving you multiple outfit options throughout the season. Neutral colors like black, gray and cream are great starters, while bold hues can add a fun pop to your winter style.

Cozy Sweaters

A good sweater makes winter feel a little brighter. From chunky knits to soft cardigans, sweaters are cold-weather must-haves. Thrifted sweaters often have unique details you will not find in big box stores which makes your winter wardrobe truly one of a kind. Browse the racks for wool blends, cable knits or oversized styles that pair well with jeans, leggings or skirts.

Boots Built for Winter

Footwear is essential when sidewalks get snowy. Look for boots with sturdy soles and warm lining to keep your feet dry and comfortable. From classic snow boots to fashion forward styles, you can find gently used options that help you take on winter weather with confidence.  

Outerwear that Works

Your coat is the star of your winter look. Whether you prefer long and sleek or short and sporty, Goodwill NCW is a great place to find high-quality outerwear at a fraction of retail prices. Look for coats with insulated lining, durable zippers and deep pockets. Do not forget about puffer jackets, wool coats and fleece pullovers which offer both warmth and style for everyday wear.

Accessories that Make a Difference

Small accessories can have a big impact on your comfort. Hats, scarves and gloves help block the cold while adding personality to your outfit. Infinity scarves, knitted beanies and touchscreen-friendly gloves are all items you can easily find while thrifting. Mix textures and colors to freshen up your winter look without spending too much.  

Sustainable Style for the Season

Shopping secondhand is a great way to refresh your wardrobe while keeping items out of the landfill. When you choose Goodwill NCW, you are not only upgrading your winter fashion but also supporting programs that create opportunities and strengthen local communities.

Warm, stylish and wallet-friendly. That is winter fashion done right with Goodwill NCW.
