Well, if we’re getting technical, I found them for my desk-neighbor Hallie Gould, who works for our sister site Byrdie and specifically asked me to find “cute coats that are actually warm.” However, I figured since I’ve already done the work, why not share? From puffers that are seriously so cool you’ll actually want to be seen in them to warm wool coats that give neck-to-ankle coverage, I’ve found something for everyone and every occasion. In fact, some of the below are owned by myself and fellow editors, and we’re vouching for them personally. See and shop our picks—and read a little about what makes each one worthy of this roundup—below.
The Super Puff is an NYC-office must-have— especially for those wet, freezing, and windy days in the peak of winter.
This jacket, which I’m wearing above, is warm not only because of the leather on the outside and puffer material inside but also because the high collar keeps your neck warm on those freezing, windy days.
According to Madewell shoppers, this top-rated jacket “adds warmth without the bulk” of a puffer and is also roomy enough for layering.

This thick faux-shearling coat is not only long but also comes with a belt so you can keep it tightly sinched on cold, windy days.
Aside from being actually warm, this Patagonia jacket is also sustainably made from a 100% recycled outer shell and reclaimed down lining interior.

According to reviews, this one is very warm and perfect for wearing out at night.
Long, 100% wool coats might not be as warm as puffers, but they are definitely still suitable for cold winter days and nights. I have a similar black one for events and evenings where I want a little more of a polished look.

Reviewers say this pale pink coat is not only warm but also extremely soft.
