This look pairs a dark green puffer vest with some other comfy and casual pieces, but dresses it up with glam accessories. Start with distressed boyfriend jeans and a gray sweater, then layer on your vest. Kick it up a notch with heeled ankle boots, a sleek gold watch, and a jeweled statement necklace. It’s the perfect way to look polished while staying comfy and warm!
2. With a Maxi Skirt

Think maxi skirts are only for warm weather? Prepare to be proven wrong! A maxi skirt looks great with layers – start with a black skirt, a simple graphic tee, and an open chambray shirt. Add on a burgundy red vest and taupe lace-up wedges. Complete this cold-weather outfit with a colorful knit beanie.
3. With Printed Pants

This last look incorporates a puffer vest into a trendy and edgy outfit. Start with a pair of printed black-and-white pants and a teal sweatshirt with a black puffer vest layered on top. Warm it up with a chunky gray knit scarf. Slip on a pair of spiked black loafers for a comfy-cool vibe, and swipe on some berry lipstick for a trendy and autumnal touch.
