Even though the weather outside is frightful, 'Deisians are besting Jack Frost with cozy coats and the warmest winter accessories. Students across campus have been spotted embracing the rich hues and jewel tones that have made their presence known on runways from Paris to Los Angeles.

While this colorful trend has most noticeably manifested itself in the form of bright pashminas, those more daring have been spotted sporting jewel-toned coats. Traditional patterns such as tweed or houndstooth are good ways to lessen the vibrance while still participating in a fun trend.

Double-breasted peacoats are great pieces for keeping warm, and they come in a variety of colors from gray to red. They are available at most retailers, including the Gap, Nordstrom and Bloomingdale's.

Other trendier patterns are also on the rise on campus. While plaid is most commonly seen on button-down shirts, it is making its way onto the outermost layer as well. Plaid is fun and colorful, but investing in a plaid piece that comes in neutral shades is ideal if you're looking to give it a more classic and timeless feel.

A fur or faux fur coat provides a controversial look bound to get you a fair number of lengthy stares and dropped jaws. Although fur is extremely warm, the fashion industry is infamous for killing millions of animals a year. As a result, many designers such as Stella McCartney and Ralph Lauren have vowed not to use it in their collections.

Probably the most classic and timelessly chic option is the belted trench. It is almost universally flattering, especially in black. Paired with leather gloves, a scarf of your choice and shield sunglasses, it will keep you cozy and looking your best even in even the harshest of weather.

Whatever color, cut or type of coat you choose to wear this winter, bundle up and keep warm!
