It&#8217;s probably because I was born and raised in South Carolina and physically cannot handle temperatures below 50 degrees, but either way, I&#8217;m obsessed with my puffer!!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Side note: I took these pictures in North Carolina last weekend when there was freezing rain\/sleet.

It was 35 degrees when we were in Clemson from 9am-Noon last weekend. My body was warm the ENTIRE time! (My feet did freeze, but this puffer couldn&#8217;t help me with that.) I seriously think there is some kind of magic in this coat because I have never ever worn something that keeps me so warm. I would even snow ski in it because I can&#8217;t imagine anything better.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Because it&#8217;s technically the &#8220;end of the season&#8221; for most retailers, the puffer is marked down from $189 to only $89!! That&#8217;s such a steal. It also comes in <span style=\"color: #ffb9c7;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #ffb9c7;\" href=\"https:\/\/shopstyle.it\/l\/Yh6m\">heather grey, blue,<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"color: #333333;\"> and <\/span><strong><a style=\"color: #ffb9c7;\" href=\"https:\/\/shopstyle.it\/l\/Yh6m\">red<\/a><\/strong><\/span>! The sizing runs large, but is explained on the website. An XS = a 2-4, which is what I have!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The &#8220;invisible&#8221; pockets in the puffer coat are really nice, and I love how lightweight it is. Because it&#8217;s a down jacket, it barely weighs anything but still keeps you SO warm! The hood is also detachable (great for light snow\/rain.) The zipper works from both the top and the bottom of the coat. It&#8217;s great so you don&#8217;t have to feel like your legs are being constrained! Or, if you want to let the zipper out from the bottom if you&#8217;re sitting down in a stadium, etc.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I also have to give a super quick s\/o to these AMAZING <span style=\"color: #ffb9c7;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #ffb9c7;\" href=\"https:\/\/shopstyle.it\/l\/Yh8g\">black leggings<\/a><\/strong><\/span> that I just discovered <span style=\"color: #ffb9c7;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #ffb9c7;\" href=\"https:\/\/shopstyle.it\/l\/Yh8g\">on Amazon<\/a><\/strong><\/span> for under $25! They are nice and structured, suck you in, and honestly feel like Lululemon. I&#8217;m wearing a small.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In short, I can&#8217;t say enough good things about my puffer coat!
