Travel Tips
It is very cold and often the tempreture drops below 0 degrees celcius. It can get as cold as -10-15, so make sure you have the following:

-warm socks (knit wool socks, available at Gap's fall collections most years). You may need to put two pairs on, so buy many
-gloves/mittens (wool or with fleece inside)
-boots (preferably with fur inside. sneakers during winter time can only do in NYC, do not attempt in Moscow!)
-hat (also wool or fleece, but you can survive wearing a baseball cap and ear-muffs)
-warm jacket (goose dawn or fur inside). You may want to buy one that covers your butt, seriously.
-sweaters (once again, wool sweaters are the best. fleece sweatshirts can be a nice alternative as well)
-scarf
-pants (if you're a girl, try to forget about skirts while you're there. if you're a guy-disregard the above :)).

Just a note, all of these are important. Last time I was in Moscow (late November-early December 2005) I had all of the above except for a hat thinking that putting a jacket hood on from time to time would suffice. Well, no, it did not. I caught a terrible cold and was sneezing all the way back to U.S.A. Source(s): Dasha from Russia

Dasha answered pretty good.
In addition:

Late December often is very-very cold. The temperature in Moscow may sharply drop below -30C, rarely -50C. These days you'd better stay at home, or else...
