If you think about it, InStyle editors are, really, professional shoppers. We test products, we review them, and we promote the best of the best. So what does that mean? It means we're guilty of shopping a lot in our personal lives.

And here's the proof. We asked InStyle editors to share what they bought this month, and here's what we discovered: a pair of stunning Givenchy heels, budget-friendly in-shower body lotion (perfect for extremely dry skin), practical iPhone chargers, and chic sculptural earrings. Keep scrolling to shop our January must-haves.

"I find that my style totally changes in the winter. While in the summer I basically only wear white and pink dresses and skirts, in the winter, it's rare you'll find me in anything but ripped black jeans. I've been dying to find a camo jacket to pair with my multiple pairs of skinny jeans, and I randomly came across this Rolling Stones jacket in Forever21 the other day and had to have it. The exhibition here helped push the purchase." —Victoria Moorhouse, Beauty Editor

"Nivea In-Shower Body Lotion is basically a miracle in a bottle for winter-ravaged skin. For those *can't even* mornings when you have no time to actually lotion up, just slather this on in the shower, rise it off, and your skin is magically moisturized all day long. Not bad for less than $5." —Katie Donbavand, Associate Producer

"I was constantly at war with the cables littering my nightstand before I invested in this sleek charging dock. It's unobtrusive enough not to be offensive, but "designed" enough that—when it's not juicing up my iPhone—one might actually mistake it for a piece of modern art." —Dianna Mazzone, Assistant Beauty Editor

"There's no such thing as having too many black jeans in your closet, and when I saw this slightly distressed pair with zipper details from Jessica Alba's DL1961 collection, I couldn't resist (especially at the sale price). They're the perfect length to wear with slip-on sneakers or tuck into boots—plus, if they're good enough for Jessica Alba, they're good enough for me." —Samantha Simon, Assistant Editor

"I had been eyeing a much more expensive shearling aviator jacket for a while and recently accepted it was out of my price range. I knew I had to find one I loved just as much and could fit into my budget. This Zara find is almost an exact dupe, but at one-fifth of the price! I love how soft the faux fur is and how it seems to work with every outfit, whether I wear it to work or out at night. It is the perfect piece for the crazy weather we have been having in N.Y.C lately, too." —Sarah Balch, Photo Editor

"I've run countless races in the Asics Nimbus. From the moment I first put them on, they trumped all other running shoes in terms of support, softness, and they're also super lightweight. This latest model (the GEL-Nimbus 19) has all-new "FlyteFoam" technology for an extra responsive ride that reduces the impact of running. I'm planning on doing the Chicago marathon in the fall and I'd never run it in anything else!" —Anna Hecht, E-commerce Editor

They're the most comfortable water/winter weather-proof boots I own—and they have a built-in heel (!!). I wear them all day long in the office and even on the weekends. They're the perfect way to stay warm and chic this winter." —Shalayne Pulia, Editorial Assistant

The site's well-edited selection of pregnancy staples from Hatch, J. Brand, Monrow and others makes it easy to find versatile pieces I can wear now and after baby, too.

"I'll admit it, I'm still buying into the adult coloring book craze. The Boss Babes edition, however, is far superior to your typical adult coloring book fare—it doubles as an activity book with creative feminist games like Marie Curie-inspired Sudoku and a "Women In Hip-Hop" word search. I spent Monday night giving Frida Kahlo balayage #NoRegrets." —Isabel Jones, Editorial Assistant

"This coat totally gets my whole "cozy-sexy" vibez for winter. Lindsey Thornburg was inspired to create it after her first winter in N.Y.C. where she'd roam around frozen Manhattan swaddled in Pendleton woolen blankets. Thick, gorgeous wool and a hood so deep it's luxurious—bring on the blizzards! Bonus: Blake Lively is a fan and has it in (at least) one, two, and three different colors." —Katie Donbavand, Associate Producer
