If Taylor Swift's style has taught us one thing, it's the importance of a good coat. From bold red teddy styles to her infamous Kansas City windbreaker, Swift certainly knows how to make a statement with her layering, and her latest outerwear is no exception.

People shared news of Swift donning a winter-ready, tweed Stella McCartney coat ($2,900) with a matching skirt (was $975, now $488) to dinner at Paros in New York City this week, and we found the exact one available to shop now, plus four similar, budget-friendly picks.

1. Stella McCartney Tweed Coat

Stella McCartney

Swift is no stranger to Stella McCartney—the red beauty she wore to a recent Chiefs' game was also reported to be a piece from the designer—so it's no surprise that she was spotted in this stunning tweed belted number from the brand. The coat is made from a wool and polyamide blend that's sure to keep you toasty in the coolest conditions, and features double-breasted buttons, roomy balloon sleeves and buttons at the sleeve cuffs.

2. Abercrombie & Fitch Mod Coat

Abercrombie & Fitch

Since nearly $3,000 is way over our budgets (even for Taylor-approved outerwear), we've got our eye on this wool-blend coat from Abercrombie & Fitch with a similar houndstooth plaid print that hits just above the knee. Shoppers are already raving over its versatility, warmth and range of lengths (it comes in tall and petite sizes, too!), so we have a feeling you'll want to scoop it up sooner rather than later.

This longer length pick from Steve Madden has all the style of Swift's coat at a fraction of the price. It has buttoned cuffs and padded shoulders for some structure and convenient side seam pockets. Plus, the acrylic blend will still keep you plenty warm.

If you're a plaid lover, this belted beauty from Steve Madden could be the perfect pick. Like some of the others on this list, it has a detachable belt and button-closed cuff sleeves for a sophisticated look. Just note that the fabric is a bit thinner, according to reviewers, so this one may be best for milder weather.

5. Banana Republic Wrap Coat

Banana Republic Factory

For a real steal that still checks all the boxes, opt for this wrap coat from Banana Republic Factory that's marked down to less than $100. The coat has an open front with a removable waist tie for a totally adjustable fit. Plus, it's fully lined for extra warmth.
