Along with a good wool coat every women should have one great women's winter jacket in her closet. Generally more casual then other jackets you can find women's winter jackets in a wide variety of styles for a variety of outdoor activities. The great thing is that over the years insulating materials have gotten thinner and thinner, so unless you want the look of the new puffer coat you can find yourself a flattering but still warm winter jacket.
So what is it you need a winter jacket to do? Get you from the house to the car and then into the mall or keep you warm while you're enjoying ice skating, tubing or sledding? If you want a winter jacket to keep you warm while you enjoy outside activities you should look to the Columbia Sportsware brand. Columbia's womens winter jackets generally are produced in layers that can be removed as needed. These are women's parkas that will keep you warm in seriously cold weather that have removable hoods. Columbia offers a wide variety of protection from Casual to Titanium. The Columbia Titanium jackets are meant for serious outsiders. Their Casual jackets are for shopping and errands around town. You can also look to outwear specialist REI for women's jackets from The North Face, Ibex and Marmot.
For more warm women's winter jackets take a look at the offerings from clothiers like LL Bean, Eddie Bauer and Land's End. Land's End shows temperature ratings for their jackets. These ratings show at what temperature the winter jacket will keep you comfortable and the coldest temperature they're made for. The warmest coat and jacket they offer will keep you comfortable at -40 degrees - that's cold! They have a widerange of jacket and coat lengths from high hip to midcalf. They have some lovely and fashionable faux shearling coats, down jackets and insulated parkas.
Don't forget to check out the offerings from Eddie Bauer. They offer a very nice mid thigh length coat called the Diamond Down Parka that has a removable hood and removable faux fir ruff. It's a very nice length and will help to keep you warmer than a parka that ends mid hip.Perhaps you'd be comfortable in one of the new puffer coats which are very trendy this year. Reminiscent of the first years when down coats became popular designers like Calvin Klein, Andrew Marc, Laundry by Shelli Segal, Jones New York, Juicy Couture and Guess? all have their own versions.
One thing to keep in mind is to buy your coat with enough room so that you can comfortably layer pieces such as turtlenecks and sweaters under it when the thermometer takes a serious dive.
