It's that time — when all things cozy and comfortable have unmatched appeal. In an effort to keep even our knitwear as chic as possible (without compromising on comfort), we've scoured our favorite stores for the cold-weather essentials we'll need for the month ahead. Admittedly, some pieces aren't so basic — a little Fair Isle, a few stripes, or a bit of sheer here and there to add interest to Winter-perfect gray sweaters, chunky cardigans, and even skirts. As for the necessary elements, you'll find that we haven't skimped on comfy bottoms with stylish (yes, stylish) sweats and fleece-lined leggings. Just click through for a few of our favorite seasonal necessities, then shop to bundle up as comfortably and stylishly as possible.

New York Fashion Week Fall 2011: Theyskens' Theory Runway
Fashion Flash

Theyskens' Theory Runway at New York Fashion Week Fall 2011

Olivier Theyskens's capsule collection for Theory went somewhat against the grain — not at all a bad thing.
by FabTV

Olivier Theyskens's capsule collection for Theory went somewhat against the grain — not at all a bad thing. While there were deliciously flared mustard corduroys, wide-leg palazzo pants, and the occasional supersexy maxidress, the majority of the collection focused on mini hemlines contrasted by must-have floor-length coats. The moody palette ranged from icy blues to stirring slate grays with dashes of deep wines and a pair of eye-catching red trouser pants. We have a feeling the cozy knits and impeccable outerwear pieces will fly off the racks come fall, but until then catch our entire coverage here!

Big Chunky Knits: A Definite Fall Essential

Get Fall ready with these chunky knit essentials OnSugar blog Dressing Up in Daisies.

We have hit September! Yes! My jacket, layering, and boot-loving self is cheering quite eagerly for the upcoming season of Fall. And yes, I'm aware it's still 95 degrees outside, but at least the month title "September" makes me seem a bit less ridiculous when all I want to do is make posts about sweaters and boots, right? I'm just so in love with the season of Fall because it's just the right amount of cold where you don't have to look like you just got off of a ski lift to stay warm, but you can certainly break out all of your favorite jackets to wear! So, when I begin posting cold-weather clothes like a mad man (or woman for that matter) over the next couple of weeks, don't say you weren't warned.

2010 Fall NYFW Trend: Cocoon Cozy

Fall is always about bundling up, but Fall 2010 ditched ladylike and attacked extreme coziness — cocoon cozy, to be exact.

Fall is always about bundling up, but Fall 2010 ditched ladylike and attacked extreme coziness — cocoon cozy, to be exact. Phillip Lim kept his sweaters cropped with extra long sleeves, Rad Hourani took his collars up, way up, and the Rodarte sisters opted for light colors and major fuzz. Other knits were oversized, and included rounded hems and large hoodies.

Fendi Honeycomb Knit Skirt: Love It or Hate It?

I have a sweet tooth, so naturally, I was drawn to this Fendi Honeycomb Knit Skirt ($1,250). The geometric cut-outs are interesting and artistic. It also looks super cozy, but I can see myself majorly snagging this baby on my first wear. The banded, bubble-like hem is also a concern.
