Puffer Jackets: The Right Way To Style A Puffer This Winter

Puffer jackets have been a staple of the fashion industry for many years now, however to this day, some people still struggle to style a puffer jacket correctly. Despite them being some of the most versatile pieces of clothing around, it can be an easy mistake to get it wrong and ruin your outfit.

Whether you’ve got the perfect winter bubble coat or a plain classic puffer coat, there’s numerous ways to style them to really make your outfit go the extra mile. These don’t even have to be extreme changes to your outfits and can be small minimal changes to ensure you’re truly getting the most out of your outfit and most importantly your puffer jacket.

In this article we’ll be taking a look into the right way to style your puffer jacket and what tips you can use to take your outfit to the next level. Let’s take a look at some different styling ideas for puffer coats:

Waterproof

With winter being in full flow, it’s understandable you need a coat capable of handling rain, snow and wind, so a waterproof puffer jacket may be perfect. Whilst wearing a waterproof puffer jacket, you’ll not only be protected from the harsh winter weather, but also, you’ll add another dimension to your outfit, as this paired with a pair of cargos and sneakers, along with a nice shirt will go perfectly.

The great thing about waterproofing, is it’s both practical as well as a great fashion piece to go with your outfit, meaning it doesn’t have to be a choice between fighting the weather and looking good.

A lighter fit

If the weather isn’t as strong but you feel you’ll still need a jacket, what better one to use than a light puffer jacket. Unlike the waterproof one, it’s not weather resistant and a much thinner material. However, what it lacks in weather resistance, it makes up for in style, and that’s what it’s used for.

With a lighter puffer jacket, you’re not looking for it to be waterproof or to keep the snow off you, you’re looking for it to keep the slight chill off when it’s just slightly too cold to go out without a jacket. They’re perfect for walking the dog, going to the shops or they can even be styled more fashionably into going for a drink with friends in one, they’re extremely versatile.

A statement look

If you’re someone that likes to stand out from the crowd, then a statement puffer coat could be the one for you. Essentially, a statement puffer coat is your normal puffer, but with a lot more flair, colour and personality. Whether it has a crazy pattern on, bright bold colours or just styled in an unusual way, going bold is a great way to stand out.

If you’re really looking to stand out and maximise how bold your outfit is, you can match the colours and patterns with the rest of your outfit, as this will truly bring out the character of the puffer jacket. These can also be further enhanced by adding accessories to your outfit such as bags or jewellery to really take it up a notch.

Smart wear

One final way to wear a puffer is in a smarter way. Those cold morning walks from the train to the office can be a horrible one if you’ve not got the right clothing on, however with a smarter looking puffer, you can incorporate this into your smart work clothes. The puffer could be worn with some smart shoes and trousers, along with a quarter zip top, with the puffer being the final edition to the outfit.

With puffers still being one of the most popular pieces of clothing around, it’s easy to get it wrong due to quick but not effective designs.
