While you might think of coats as a big ticket item, there’s no reason you have to spend the big bucks to get a great puffer. I talk about Quince a lot here, but they really do shine when it comes to minimal silhouettes and high quality fabrics. I love all of their puffer options, like this cool sage green option, this chocolate brown reversible puffer, and this featherless puffer in a winter white (for less than 100!).
Of course, there are some spender options if you’re looking to really invest. Whether you’re braving the slopes in Aspen or just the wind on your morning walk, the classic North Face parka can handle whatever the weather is throwing at you. This Moose Knuckles parka has a little more flair to it, complete with fur pom poms, trim, and gold hardware.
I think an easy way to make a puffer more stylish is to pick a really striking color. It instantly elevates it, and you don’t have to worry about it really matching your outfit. When you’re outside, the coat is your outfit. When you’re inside, you’re not wearing the coat! I love this deep green emerald puffer from Artizia this bright cerulean blue Ralph Lauren coat. , and this longer cranberry colored coat from Mango.
If you’re already a maximalist and unafraid of pattern, you’ll probably love this Boden plaid puffer in navy and dark green. The Black Watch plaid also feels festive, and especially apt for any post-turkey walks on Thanksgiving. For a pattern that feels a little less holiday, you can’t go wrong with leopard print. Especially this one from Gap with a fun faux-fur trim, all for less than $140.
