Cozy Items for Yourself + Cozy Gifts

Huge thanks to Nordstrom and ShopStyle Collective for sponsoring this post

It’s the time of year for all things cozy! Today I’m partnering with Nordstrom and ShopStyle Collective to share a few cozy items for yourself and some awesome cozy gift ideas for others!

As you know, Nordstrom is one of my favorite places to shop at because I find so many pieces there that just feel GOOD. So of course if we are talking cozy pieces, Nordstrom has some GREAT options! On top of clothes feeling great at Nordstrom, I love shopping there because of their customer service! Nordstrom offers free shipping and free return shipping on all orders, so you can try items and find your best fit with peace of mind. Also, if you sign up for free to be part of the Nordy Club, you get additional perks like earning points towards Nordstrom Notes, receiving Nordstrom Notes for alterations, and more. Check out all that the Nordy Club has to offer, HERE.

Here are some cozy pieces to add to your collection and to give as gifts this season!

SIZING: I’m 5’6” and usually S/M or 6 in clothes and 8.5 to 9 in shoes.

 Fall Outfit at Home: grey sweatshirt + grey joggers + white socks + white cozy blanket

Lounging Around the House
For lounging around the house, these Zella Joggers and Zella Cozy Twist Sweatshirt are a great combo! Both of these pieces have a bit of a fuzzy lining to make them a little warmer and cozier, and they’re very comfy. Plus, they’re cute together! 😄

I really like how these joggers are pretty warm without being super bulky or heavy. One note on fit is that the joggers have pleats under the waistband, so they will add a little volume around the hips. If you have a straighter figure, pleats will help add curves. If you have a wider top half and narrower hips, pleats will help create a more balanced silhouette. If you have naturally curvy hips, pleats will accentuate them even more. If any of those options sound right for you, then try these joggers because they’re comfy and cozy! They come in 2 colors, HERE. I wear size S.

As for the sweatshirt, it fits wider at the shoulders and then gets narrower down the torso to the waistband. Also, it has a fun twist in the back, which you can see on the product site, HERE. While the material is not super thick, it’s warm for its weight. The sweatshirt comes in 2 colors, and I wear size S.

Wear these pieces out for errands with sneakers or to lounge around the house in comfy socks or cozy slippers.

BTW, these Butter Crew Socks are really cozy and comfortable and keep your feet nice and warm! These make a GREAT gift for anyone in your life who loves cozy things, and they’re available in 7 colors. See them all, HERE.

Also, my family loves this cozy throw blanketso much that we have four of them! My kids kept stealing mine (Addie stole TWO of them from me!) so I kept buying them. They are super, super soft, really affordable, and they wash very, very well. It comes in 7 colors, which you can check out, HERE. This is a great, easy gift to give to someone who loves cozy things, or to someone that you just don’t know what to give! Who wouldn’t want a super soft, comfortable blanket?

Another set of pajamas or loungewear that looks really, REALLY cozy is the Printed Brush Knit pajamas. There are some really cute prints available, which you can see HERE!

Also, a great piece that is not shown here but is a HUGE favorite to gift is the Barefoot Dreams cardigan. We gave this to my mother-in-law one year, and she loved it. We also gifted it to my sister, and she bought several more afterwards because she loved it so much! It is super soft and really cozy, and it washes really, really well. Find it HERE.

Athleisure
If you’re doing athleisure, this sweatshirt and this fuzzy wrap jacket are IT! I recently shared about the wrap jacket, but in case you missed it, it’s SOFT and has a fairly thick, FUZZY lining, and it works great with leggings to keep you comfy and cozy in athleisure. It comes in 3 colors which you can see, HERE. I wear size XS as this runs large.

I recently showed this outfit, but I wanted to take a moment to highlight this tunic sweatshirt and show you the inside of it! It’s one of those things that you can’t tell how good it is online and is so much better in person. This tunic sweatshirt is thick and has a cozy, FUZZY lining that is really soft and keeps you warmer than a lot of other sweatshirts! It’s tunic length at 28″ long, which is enough to cover my backside in leggings. Plus, it has POCKETS! It’s available in 3 colors, HERE. I wear size S.

Casual Outfit
Okay, I don’t know if this quite falls under the “cozy” category, but I found these corduroy pants and just NEED to tell you about them! 😄 Corduroys are a nice change up from jeans for casual wear, and these are STRETCHY and COMFY, and they have the comfortable stretchy elastic waistband! The outside is a little fuzzy, and they feel a bit warmer than a lot of pairs of denim, so they’re not quite in the cozy category, but we’ll let them sneak in, okay? 😉 This color is low in stock in smaller sizes, but it’s fully stocked in other colors, HERE. I wear size 6.

Also, this is the same shirt jacket and water resistant boots that I shared in a recent post. In case you missed them, the jacket is really soft on the outside and comfortable on the inside with a silky smooth lining. It’s a nice lighter weight option that functions similarly to a utility jacket but is a bit warmer. This one comes in 4 colors, HERE. Be sure to size down since shirt jackets tend to run oversized. I’m wearing size XS.

A similar jacket that might fall more into the cozy category is this fleece jacket. It seems really soft and warm!

To add an even cozier element, layer on this scarf, which looks soooo soft! It would make a great gift, too.

And, these boots are water resistant and have the lug sole that is popular these days. They work well under these straight leg corduroys, too! (I know you all are always looking for boots that work with straight leg pants these days!) These come in 3 colors, HERE. I wear size 8.5.
