Ugh. Winter is here and I’m dying for a warm-weather vacay already (side note: if you’re looking for a dog-friendly beach vacay, I highly recommend The Ritz-Carlton Aruba)! For some reason it’s not socially acceptable for dogs to do the whole ‘hibernating until spring’ thing, so when I have to brave the freezing temps to actually go outside during the winter in NYC – I obviously NEED cute outerwear.

Here’s the thing… I’m a small dog and I get cold really easily, so I’m really picky about finding outerwear that not only looks good, but is functional too! Here are a few of my favorite options for those days when you need an extra layer outside!

FABDOG PLAID BOUCLE COAT ($60)

This plaid bouclé jacket is the perfect for casual errands, weekends at a cozy cabin, or days when you just feel like wearing plaid. I like to wear it alone or layered over a cashmere sweater for extra warmth!

• Shell: 10% Wool, 20% Viscose, 50% Polyester, 20% Acrylic
• Lining: 100% Polyester, No filling.
• Expandable elastic + velcro closure
• Front Snap Closure for Hidden Harness Hole

• Wearing size 10

CHEWSY SNOW DAY PUFFER ($85)

There are cozy puffers and then there are puffers that are SO COZY that you almost don’t want to leave. The faux fur collar on this puffer vest is literally the softest thing ever. My human always comments that she wishes she had this puffer in her size – too bad human, too bad!

• Black quilted outer shell
• Gray faux fur collar
• Front snap closure
• Made with love in Los Angeles

Pet Life Metallic Ski Parka ($40)

This black puffer parka is a staple for winter in NYC. I actually have it in multiple colors (the camo version was my first winter parka as a puppy!) – it just fits me really well, it’s durable, and the price is great too!

Puppy Angel Love Snowsuit ($110)

Last but not least, for those really freezing days when you need a full body snowsuit solution, this one will definitely keep you warm! This is my go-to for literal snow days and as it keeps almost all of me dry (just don’t forget to wear boots)!
