I'm originally from just outside of Chicago so I'm completely used to the cold and snow for months on end. Here at Indiana, we tend to swear by North Face. I came here thinking I would never fall into the trend, but after some long trudges to class in the freezing rain/snow/sleet/whatever, I caved and bought one. Since your daughter probably isn't used to the cold, I'd recommend a knee length one with a hood. It will be more expensive, but prevents the need to layer AS much. I know I wear a Denali year round, but I tend to layer with a sweatshirt or cable knit sweater.
I'd also recommend a good pair of rain boots, Target online has cheap ones, or you can go up to Chooka or Hunter, depending on your price point. They will crack and leak after 1-2 seasons of temperature change, I know that from experience.
In terms of actual boots, I'm partial to my Uggs but we don't get quite as much snow as we used to. I did have a pair of more treaded knee high boots, but now when it snows I settle for my Uggs.
Other random things I can think of: gloves (many pairs), headbands (a few) for absurdly windy cold winter days, Eucerin intense moisture hand cream, throw blankets, several warm coffee mugs that are leakproof so she doesn't have to hold them all winter (I've experienced far too many purple fingers from this), Polo cable knit sweaters...which I live in in the winter, and jeans that can be tucked into boots.
