I'm probably not the best person to give advice since I regularly go outside in -30C weather with nothing but jeans, a t-shirt, and a leather coat to protect me from the elements.

Looking up the average temperatures on wikipedia it doesn't seem that different from where I live. Maybe a bit colder in the summer. I'd say get a decent winter coat, hat, and gloves and you should be fine. Maybe get a scarf if you like scarves. Not sure I'd bother with ski-pants. Anyone from Sweden feel free to correct me.

But if you happen to come from a warm climate, you may want to make sure you have plenty to bundle up in if their climate is anything like it is here in winter. When I was in University, we'd always laugh at the students from some more temperate regions of the world because they'd have winter coats on in the early fall while I was still walking around with no coat, and even wearing shorts some days. It can be a harsh adjustment to a cold climate if you aren't used to it.

:P there u already say it: your used to the climate and so ur body/mind has adjasted to it.
here in holland we already start paniking at -8 >.< so im reeaallly not used to -20..
Plus the Swedish cold is not the same as in Holland (they said)

So i am one of those wrapped up students in fall!! and i just wanna make sure that i have decent clothes.. i dont wanna end up having to buy another coate becaus the one i bought isnt warm enough :O

It's old advice, but just in case you've forgotten, dress in layers. So that also means buy in layers. Plan for outfits where you'll be warm out doors, but can easily remove a few items and be comfortable and not roasting in doors.

The only other thing I can say, is that I have a few old military Field Jackets. They're called jackets, but they're coats. They're very warm, and have an extra liner that buttons inside them to make them even thicker. You can then remove the inner layer in the slightly warmer times and still be comfortable. They have a hood that zips into the collar, so you can put the hood up or if you don't need it, tuck it completely out of the way. They have lots of little pockets and zippers for storing things like gloves and chapstick. It's pretty versatile, and the material they're made from is tough.

They are camouflage though. :P I don't know if that's your style, but if so, you might be able to find one in a thrift store. Heck, if you want I'll see how much it costs to send you one of mine. I hardly ever use them.

that sounds good actualy ^^ do you have pictures?

No pictures of mine, but here's a link of a site that sells them. It describes them the same way I did, and has a picture.

What you see there, is pretty much what mine look like.

They also have this jacket.

It's not quite as versatile, but it's warm and reversible. So you get a black jacket, and a bright orange jacket all in one.

The prices on military surplus are usually reasonable, too.

hmm im not that impressed by it

Yeah, I wasn't sure you'd like it. Just thought I'd ask. That site has things like winter parkas and sweaters as well, but they're all military surplus so they all have that look.
