You've made it to another January weekend and, while some of us in the UK are enjoying bright, crisp sunshine, temperatures are generally feeling on the nippy side. Given that headlines haven't been great in 2022 so far and the joy of Christmas is firmly in the rearview mirror, I feel like this is a really good time to invest in something that's going to give you an added level of comfort.
Instagram is full of glorious images of stylish people rocking oversized scarves, cosy beanies, perfect puffer jackets and even – wait for it – fleeces, which have found fashion favour once again.
This is great but, to reiterate, it is still January, which is not typically abundant with cash. So, to make your day, I've found 9 of the very best cosy items available – all under £60.
SHOP: 9 Things To Keep You Warm Under £60
1 of 9H&M, Oversized Polo Neck Jumper, £24.99
This might just be the perfect jumper. It has a great shape and fit, it's super cosy and it's the most brilliant colour. Plus, it's just less than £25.
2 of 9Monki, Puffer Jacket, £40
As I'm sure you know, puffers have been big news for a while now. This one from Monki is warm and cosy and will only set you back £40. Given the fact that you'll wear this every day until spring, that's a pretty sound investment.
3 of 9Arket, Knitted Hood, £55
Unexpected it may be but balaclavas are one of the hottest items you could buy right now. From the catwalks to TikTok, they're dominating trends at the moment and, crucially, really will keep you warm. Arket's is available in several different colours but I love this pretty powdery blue.
4 of 9& Other Stories, Mohair Knit Mittens, £35
Ok, so you may not be able to use your phone while wearing these but your fingers (and possibly your screen-weary brain) will thank you for wearing these adorable mittens.
5 of 9M&S, Knitted Pom Pom Beanie, £12.50
M&S's knitted beanie is not reinventing the wheel but it will lend joy to all of your winter outfits. Available in eight different colours, it'll keep you warm on all of those January walks.

8 of 9Mango, Knitted Turtleneck Dress, £35.99
Layer this over tights and boots and you'll be the perfect temperature (indoors, at least). Available in this creamy hue or black, it's a versatile dress you could jazz up easily with great jewellery and heels.
9 of 9ASOS, Patterned Fleece, WAS £70 NOW £56
