You don't need a lot a fancy bike clothes and accessories to bike commute in the cold.
Go to a discount store that sells cold weather gear.
Also, remember to dress in layers. You'll be surprised how warm you'll be with only a few layers. Even on the coldest days I still end up shedding a layer somewhere along my route to work.
