I'd practice at home first, to see if you can desensitize. Our dog isn't a fan either, but with a traditional clippers, some treats, and about 20 minutes we can get 2 paws done in one treat-filled flurry.
We practiced the following, in order:
I usually ID where I need to trim and mark it ahead of time. It's easier to trim quickly if you know exactly what you're going for. I start with dewclaws then work up to the bigger ones. I usually give our dog a week break before I trim the other set of paws - usually start with front, then get back.
Is your dog showing his/her teeth when you try to clip? As soon as our dog starts to snarl, that's it. We stop there. We've been practicing it here and there for about a year, so it took quite a bit of time to actually be able to trim her nails, but now she's comfortable enough to know what's going on and permit it.
I have a sweater for my corgi, but I only put it on him when the temp drops below 10 or 15 degrees F. Mostly it's short haired and/or low rider dogs who need winterizing. If it does look like she's getting cold, you should take her to a store to try on something before you buy it. And you should probably invest in some of these to protect her paws from the salt on the sidewalk.
Puppies in the snow are so much fun :)
