Every time of year is a great time to be a retiree, but there’s something especially wonderful about being retired in the winter. Is there a raging snowstorm outside? Not your problem — you’re not due in the office. Your only obligations are to stay cozy and look good when you’re on the go. Of course, you might need to do a little shopping to meet those obligations.
Fortunately, you’re a real Kohl’s fan. You’re always on the lookout for the best deals for all seasons — and winter is no exception. To help you in your pursuit of hot fashion finds that will get you through the colder season, GOBankingRates took a stroll through a local Kohl’s.
Women’s Nine West Coatigan Sweater: $39.99
Ever wanted a garment with the length of a coat and the lightweight warmth of a cardigan? Meet the “coatigan” — a stylish and practical fusion of the two. Before you read about any other feature, know this: It has pockets.
That alone should be a major selling point — not to mention the incredible softness that lets you layer it over casual outfits or more formal wear for a night out.
This coatigan comes in sizes XS to XXL and in a variety of colors and patterns — including leopard print for retirees who want to walk on the wild side.
Gioberti Men’s Corduroy Shirt Jacket With Flannel Lining: $64.99
This shirt jacket blends ultra-soft corduroy with a chic flannel lining for rugged yet practical glamor that evokes the best looks of the late Robert Redford. With snap-button wrist cuffs, you can roll up the sleeves or keep them down — depending on the weather or your mood.
You can find it in sizes up to 3XL and in a variety of colors.
Propet Lumi Women’s Waterproof Winter Boots: $64.60-$91.96
As an active retiree, you need winter footwear that keeps you safe, dry and warm — and if it looks great, even better. These waterproof boots are made of sturdy rubber and come with soles that provide excellent traction.
They’re as stylish as they are secure, with Scotchgard-treated suede uppers in berry and gray (black appears to be sold out as of this writing). The faux fur lining keeps you warm and lets you pair the boots with jeans or more formal wear.
Northside Leavenworth Men’s Waterproof Winter Boots: $44
If you’re going to be outdoors this winter — whether walking a trail or taking a ski vacation — you’ll need a hardcore pair of winter boots. These are easy to pull on and off, combining convenience with performance via stellar traction, shock absorption and abrasion resistance.
Simply put, these boots will keep you safe in snowy and icy conditions.
Totes Recycled Titan® Umbrella With SunGuard® and Auto Open/Close Technology: $21.60
During the gray days of winter, you probably long for blue skies and white clouds. While you’ll still have to wait a few months for those days, you can give yourself a taste of it — even on the rainiest days — with this umbrella.
