Cool temps are here to stay, and what better way to welcome them than with an article all about outerwear? Coats and jackets should have what it takes to get you through another chilly season of looking great and staying warm, so how do you know if yours has it? Look no further than this guide. I’ll walk you through some up-to-the-minute outerwear styles, and quickly—because I know you’re a busy gal. Here’s the run down.
Puffers have been a winter staple for at least the last few seasons. I love that a puffer can be sporty, luxe, or even have feminine details like sparkle and bows. No matter your style, a puffer is a fashionably warm way to express your personality. (See image above for FARFETCH puffer, $158)
Animal prints are another great way to add charisma to your outerwear game. We all want to look and feel our best, even if there’s no real place to be or meeting to go to. Leopard print is easily my everyday go-to for fun, easy style. Plus, it looks amazing with a bright or bold autumn tone peeking out from underneath. (See image above for H&M animal print, $59.99)
Let’s talk hoods. How many times have you left your beanie sitting at home or in the car? Be uber-prepared for any weather condition with a practical and fashionable hood. I especially love a fur-trimmed hood for rocking the Polar vibes, no matter what side of the globe you’re on. (See image above for ITALIST hooded coat, $634)
If the weather is beyond cold and you need major coverage, then the overcoat is for you. Look for a warm wool or synthetic for colder temperatures, and should generally fall somewhere below the knee—elevate your chic-ness with a button-up or belted option. An overcoat can easily be dressy or casual, making it oh so right for all your days and nights during the holiday season. (See image above for YOOX.COM overcoat, $148)
Not quite sweater, not quite coat— but a coatigan. Yes, that’s right, a coatigan! (How much fun is that to say?) Well, you’re going to have even more fun wearing it. You can pair this fun number with jeans, work pants, or a dress—you name it. This cozy layer is sophisticated enough for business, yet weekend-approved. Sounds to me like must-have versatility every gal needs in her closet. (See image above for ROMWE cardigan, $71.99)
