I ordered A283886 by Halston in forest.  For some reason I can't show a picture of it.

Re: PUFFER COATS

[ Edited ]

@SilleeMeeI saw that last night during the Dennis and Jill show, and had to smile.  The belt looks like a luggage strap we used when traveling to make sure the suitcase did not open.  But, the rest of the coat is fine, looks like a lot of others, with exception to the collar.  Puffers can be sort of flattering, especially if is the packable type   but they have a much lighter warmth.  Being a lifelong New England girl, at a certain point I do not care if my figure is cute, I just want to be warm when I am out for my job walking to meetings, etc.  Style goes out the window if the windchill still cuts you to the bone and the coat serves no real purpose.

The belt looks quite similar to those on many belted ski parkas/jackets.

look for words that say "packable". I got a Nautica reversible packable jacket at TJ Maxx that is warm, very nice looking and not at all bulky. M Kors makes some as does Ralph Lauren and others, can find deals at 6pm on many of them.

 

 


Thanks PinkSunset, that helps my search!

I like puffer vests but they can't be too puffy or I feel like a marshmallow man. There are slimmer fitting ones that are flattering.
