The holiday season is quickly approaching {seriously, Thanksgiving is less than two weeks away}, so that means your favorite stores are rolling out their winter/holiday gear. And one store that just revealed their festive pieces is Mandee. I used to shop at Mandee years ago and finally made me way back to them when I was finding pieces for my Today Show fashion segment. Though many of the clothes and accessories skew towards a younger woman's style, they have tons of basics for women of all ages. And the new holiday pieces are just as eclectic.

Winter is here. Well, not officially, but the cooling temps are quickly creeping up on us. A great, warm winter coat is a worthwhile investment but if you're a bit cash strapped or want to update your look without dropping a wad of cash, there are tons of cute and functional options on the market. Whether your style leans more towards the classic or glam look, there's something for every taste.

Pea Coat: This classic look never goes out of style. It's flattering for all figures and easily translates from day to night. Black or navy blue are typical choices, but you can also opt for a bright hue to perk up the cold days.Click more to see other coat options under $150.
