Prefer neutral, classic styles over trendy or loud
Appreciate quality materials and thoughtful details
something I can actually wear the item multiple times a week
no animal fur
I don't want ultra-sporty gear unless it’s very refined
don't need something that requires “special occasions” to wear
Extra Details:
Recently moved to Boston from NorCal, and I'm definitely in dire need for warm, winter clothes. I spend some time outside, mostly for school drop-offs, dog walks, errands, etc. I want to be warm without looking bulky or “overly technical” (like Canada Goose or Arc'teryx).
Columbia's Heavenly long hooded jacket. This one is my daily go-to. It’s lightweight but really warm, water-resistant, and looks way more casual than a puffy expedition coat. Great for cold walks without feeling like you’re prepping for Everest.
This one lives up to the hype. It’s shockingly warm without being heavy, great for daily errands, school drop-offs, and travel. It comes in the regular and long versions, but for everyday activities, I recommend the regular length.
It's super lightweight, has a flattering shape, and packs down easily. Aritzia launches different colors each year (just like Lululemon's Scuba hoodies), and I'm currently obsessed with this color.

Love the Aritzia Super Puff.
