Because it’s a given that they keep you warm, choose your puffer jacket based on how fashionable it looks on you. Expect to see bright colors, prints and enhancements such as cinched waist or contrasting color pockets and zipper.
  • Colorful Topcoat. Topcoats are also more than just the typical black or tan colors this year. You can show more personality with topcoats in brighter colors such as green or pink, and some may have additional decorative touches.
