When it feels like -20 degrees outside, the last thing you want to do is leave the cozy, warmth of your house. But sometimes you have to, whether you’re trekking to work, heading to the store for essentials, or simply just going for a walk to get your steps in, especially as we’re looking for an excuse to leave the house. For any and all of the above, you’ll need a good winter coat to protect you from the elements.
Celebrities are also bundling up this season in some of 2021’s most popular and trendiest winter coats—and many of them you can buy for yourself online. Below are some of the stars’ top picks, including the viral Amazon coat, the splurge-worthy Canada Goose parka, and puffer jackets galore and whether or not they’ll actually keep you warm, too.

J.Crew Chateau Parka.
Leave it to Meghan Markle to find a winter coat that’s as cozy as it is chic. The Chateau Parka—which is made of luxe Italian wool—has been one of J.Crew’s most popular coat styles since it first dropped in 2006. Available in seven pretty hues and both petite and tall sizes, the coat is praised for its warmth, stylish exterior, and flattering A-line shape, which is especially perfect for anyone with wider hips, reviewers say.

Orolay Thickened Down Jacket.
The viral Amazon coat has nearly 15,000 fans, including celebrities like Lucy Hale, who wore the trendy parka on New Year’s Eve. I own both the original Amazon coat and the updated 2020 version (which has a fluffy sherpa exterior) and can attest that the down jacket is 100 percent worth the hype. At just $150, it’s an affordable alternative to some of the pricier winter coats and is easily one of the warmest jackets I’ve ever owned. Bonus: There are tons of pockets that are roomy enough to hold everything you could need from your phone to your hat and gloves.

Canada Goose is the Lululemon of winter coats: pricey, but well worth it. Not only are celebrities like Rihanna, Jennifer Lopez, and Emma Stone obsessed with the high-end jackets, but Reviewed’s own shopping director, Samantha Matt, has one and says it’s the best investment she’s ever made. She’s owned hers for a few freezing-cold Boston winters and raves that it truly keeps her warm on even the chilliest of days. You can shop plenty of Canada Goose coat styles at Nordstrom, including the most popular fur trim parka.

As the leather pants sensation of TikTok, Aritzia has become one of the “it” brands of 2020 (and now 2021). Celebrities love the Canadian brand’s puffer jackets, as well. Kendall Jenner, Bella Hadid, and Hailey Bieber have all been wearing the popular coat this winter, specifically the best-selling TNA Super Puff. Made from water-repellant fabric and 100 percent goose down, the jacket has 5-star reviews for being cozy, stylish, and roomy and it keeps selling out whenever it comes back in stock.

Free People Adore You Wool Coat.
If you’re someone who prefers the sleek softness of a wool coat to the oversized bulk of puffer jackets, look no further than this one from Free People that Selena Gomez wore recently. The stylish trench comes in four muted neutrals and reviewers give it a thumbs up for looking super sophisticated yet feeling super comfy. Note: Free People cautions that the coat is oversized and runs larger so if you want it to be more form-fitting, you’ll want to size down.
