How To Style a Puffer Vest
Puffer vests are not only practical, but stylish as well. Puffer vests have certainly been in style this year as I have been seeing them everywhere on social media. The J. Crew Factory puffer vest I am wearing is my absolute favorite, for it’s simple design and classic herringbone pattern. And better yet, it is on sale today for 50% off! This puffer vest is perfect for fall and it would make a great holiday gift too. For today’s post I decided to style it two ways.
The first way I styled it was by pairing it with a simple black swing dress from Old Navy in a size XS petite. I have been collecting a sizable stash of Old Navy swing dresses because I love how they fit and they are just so comfortable. It is so easy to add style to these dresses by pairing them with a plaid or other decorative scarf (the one I am wearing is from Sole Society but I got it at Nordstrom). I went a step further by pairing it with this J. Crew Factory herringbone puffer jacket. The booties I am wearing are BP Trolley (from Nordstrom) and I highly recommend them. To complete the look I wore a floppy wool hat from Nordstrom as well.
The second way is a more casual look. I wanted to add more color so I paired the puffer vest with the J. Crew Tippi Turtleneck sweater in soft peony. This sweater is also on sale today at 40% off! You can get an additional cash back if you buy online (as I almost always do) and use Ebates! To make my legs look longer I paired the puffer jacket and sweater with bootcut jeans. I also wore my Cole Haan Fair Haven snake embossed pumps, which are not only stylish but practical too. To soften the look I am wearing a crystal statement necklace from J. Crew factory.
Don’t forget to check out all the sale merchandise at J. Crew (40% off) and J. Crew Factory (50-60% off)!
Thanks for looking!

Hi April, I love how you styled this puffer vest 2 ways. I agree, it is very versatile, practical and stylish! I don’t own one like this (just a North Face black one) & may need to make the investment before my travels to winter weather!
