Recently, we've shown you some of this winter's top trends, divulged our all-time favorite coat brands for the elements ahead, and gone on ad nauseam about the cold-weather selection at Nordstrom, but did you think I'd let

the new season officially commence without an epic affordable shopping roundup? Never. That's why I found everything you could possibly need for the year's chilliest months, from boots and beanies to coats and dresses, all for—you guessed it—under $49. So whether you're looking to upgrade a few old items, fill some wardrobe gaps, or do a major overhaul, I've got you covered.

Of course, I can't take all the credit. I had some help from my favorite brands and sites, like Zara, Mango, H&M, and even Amazon, because it wouldn't be an affordable shopping roundup without them. As always, they really delivered, so if you're ready to get started, just keep scrolling to shop all 49 of my epic under-$49 finds.
