How to style a women's puffer jacket without looking like a sleeping bag? Six concrete printed winter outfits, plus tips on sizing, proportions and layering.
As soon as the temperature drops below ten degrees, most of us reach for the puffer jacket again. Makes sense, because it's light and warm. But figuring out how to style a women's puffer jacket without looking like you walked out in your sleeping bag is a real challenge. The good news: with a few simple rules and the right pieces around it, your winter jacket becomes the thing people notice. Below you'll find out how, with six outfits you can wear tomorrow to class, work, the city or a night out.
A puffer adds volume to your upper body. You don't need to fight that, you just need to work with it on purpose.
Pick one statement. If your jacket has a bold print, keep the rest of your outfit calm. If the jacket is plain, let your trousers or bag do the talking. Play with proportions. Volume on top works well with something slimmer below, like leggings or straight jeans. Or go full streetwear with wide cargos and chunky sneakers. Let something peek out. The hood of your hoodie or the collar of a turtleneck over the jacket instantly makes it look like an outfit. Think about your shoes. A big jacket needs shoes with some presence: chunky sneakers or sturdy boots. Delicate flats disappear underneath.
The black monogram puffer jacket is the easiest place to start. It's black with a white geometric monogram, with a hood, a full-length zip, elastic cuffs and two side pockets. Because it's black and white, it goes with almost anything.
Wear it with a grey hoodie, black wide-leg or cargo trousers, white chunky sneakers and a black beanie. A look for class, errands or coffee with friends, and still a step up from a standard black jacket.
Want colour in winter? The pink striped puffer with leopard hood has a pink base with black stripes and a monogram, and the inside of the hood is lined with leopard print. That detail is what makes this jacket fun, so let the hood hang down your back where the print shows.
Keep everything else neutral: a black or cream turtleneck, straight jeans and black boots. A black bag finishes it off. Playful, but not busy.
The colorblock tiger print puffer is asymmetric: one half is solid black with LauBelle branding, the other half is a beige and brown tiger print. It has a stand collar instead of a hood, which gives it a sleeker silhouette.
This is your jacket for dinner or a night in town. Go total black underneath: a black ribbed top, black leather-look trousers or leggings, and boots with a small heel. Gold earrings do the rest. The jacket is the statement, so nothing else is needed.
The white geometric monogram puffer has a white base with a black monogram and a bright red detail inside the collar. Pick up that red elsewhere in your outfit: a red beanie, a red scarf or simply red lips.
Wear it with light-wash jeans, a white or grey sweater and white sneakers for a fresh winter look. Just know that a white jacket asks for a bit more care. It's machine washable cold, up to 40°C, like the other puffers here.
Not every winter day calls for a puffer. On dry, cold days the plush monogram fleece jacket is a great alternative. It's made from dense fleece with a little stretch, with a stand collar, button front and zipped pockets. The fit is roomy: according to the size chart, size S has a 114 cm bust.
Wear it with leggings or joggers and sneakers for a cosy weekend look, or with wide jeans and a long necklace for something more styled. It's also a nice jacket to keep on during a train ride or in a chilly office.
For milder winter days, the long hooded monogram jacket is an option. It isn't a puffer but a lightweight jacket in 95% polyester and 5% spandex, black with a monogram and colourful accents on the hood and sleeves, with a metal zip and kangaroo pockets. On colder days you can wear a hoodie underneath. Pair it with leggings and sneakers for a sporty, long silhouette.
Measure a jacket you love the fit of and compare it with the size information on the product page. Planning to wear a thick hoodie underneath? Factor that in and size up if you're in doubt. The striped and black hooded puffers come in S to 2XL, the stand collar styles in XS to 3XL.
Every jacket is made only after you order: allow 3 to 5 business days for making and 7 to 9 business days for shipping. Shipping is free, you have 14 days to return, and LAUBELLE10 gives you 10% off your first order.
