I scrolled through 10,000 styles on Amazon — here are the under-$55 pieces I'm buying - chof 360 news

I don't know about you, but whenever the temperatures start rising and the sun stays up after 5:30 p.m., my closet starts itching for a little glow-up — even though, yes, it's technically still winter (sigh). The good news: Between the sweater dresses, cozy layers and textured fabrics, there's still so much to love about winter fashion.

Whenever I feel like treating myself on a budget, I head straight to Amazon's style section. Recently, I took it upon myself to sift through the site's 10,000-plus cold-weather pieces that can be had for less than $55, and believe me, there are plenty of gems.

This baby looks just like Oprah's favorite Spanx lounge set — which is my fave as well! I love it so much that I'd been thinking of getting another — that is, until I found this way more affordable alternative. The bestseller comes in over 20 colors, and shoppers say it's incredibly soft and stylish (just like its more expensive counterpart).

"I'm shocked at the amazing quality. So silky soft with stretch. Perfect for travel or lounging," said this cozy shopper. "I plan to buy in other colors."

These fleece leggings are warm and flattering, but perhaps the most impressive part is just how many fans they've amassed — they have over 24,000 five-star reviews from verified shoppers. The plush lining will keep me toasty while I walk my dog on chilly mornings, but they're breathable and moisture-wicking in case temps heat up throughout the day.

The leggings are designed with a V-shaped high-rise band, so they cinch in at the waist and smooth the tummy area. Style meets function with a hidden key pocket, two smartphone pockets and interlock seams that minimize chafing and rubbing. "These are the most comfortable pants I have ever worn," raved one shopper.

You can't go wrong with a classic cardigan, and this longer silhouette is great because you can wear it belted or tucked, adding to its versatility. I love how size-inclusive it is — ranging from XS to 6XL — and that it comes in 26 colors. 

"They are the perfect weight to use as a layering piece," this fan said. "I did go up a size to allow for any shrinkage in washing and drying. Going back for another color soon."

How chic is this tan suede shoulder bag? It exudes luxury without the hefty price tag, and it's big enough to hold more than the essentials. Bonus: It comes with a cute faux leather pouch to keep your smaller items organized, so you won't have to rummage through the bottom of your tote to find them. 

One reviewer wrote, "The simple shape is so modern and it comes with a smaller zippered pouch lined with the same material as the bag. Perfect size for day-to-day items and feels well-made."

I love that this ribbed turtleneck has a relaxed fit that isn't overly baggy, allowing it to drape beautifully on all shapes and sizes. It features a comfortable cowl neck, long batwing sleeves and a cut that's flattering while still being so snuggly. Made from a super-soft woven blend, it comes in 23 colors.

"Not only is this sweater incredibly comfortable, but it is so soft and cozy. The neck is not restricting, and so comfortable to wear during cold weather. It is very flattering with leggings OR jeans," said one customer

Everyone can use a tailored trouser in their wardrobe, and thousands of shoppers love this stylish, flattering wide-leg pair. The front gives you that classic look with a zipper fly and belt loops, while the back features a comfy, forgiving elastic waistband that makes them feel amazing.

"Perfect pant," one owner gushed. "I have purchased many pants of this style but returned them all until I found these. The fit is so comfortable and flattering. I always worry [about] how the booty will look with an elastic waistband and no pockets but these are great."

It's so tempting to live in laid-back joggers and plush sweaters all season long, but this alluring sweater dress strikes just the right balance for those occasions when you need to dress up. Not only does the flattering design feature a tie at the waist to highlight your shape, but the gorgeous red hue will add a pop of color to any outfit.

One five-star reviewer wrote, "Absolutely love this dress. I got this dress for a work Christmas party and it's very classy looking while being super comfortable as well. The fabric is way better than I was expecting."

These chunky tear-drop earrings are only $8 a pair, but they look so similar to a $1,000 pair from Bottega Veneta. The brass earrings are hypoallergenic, so you don't have to worry about them irritating your ears, and they come in a variety of sizes and colors. 

Customers rave about how easy to wear they are despite that bold, substantial look. One called them "gorgeous and comfy earrings" before adding, "They are so stylish and lightweight and look fabulous with anything I wear."

The only thing cuter than a flannel shacket is a cropped flannel shacket! It's a top-seller and comes in 34 colors, so you're sure to find a style (or two) that you adore.
