FRIDAY FINDS - PARKA PICKS

Parka Picks!

When it starts to get cold, this is the kind of jacket we reach for. A parka is the perfect jacket choice because it can be casual or even glamourous, depending on which one you chose. This is also the type of jacket that you can buy every couple of years as an investment item, or just buy fun and trendy options each year. Either way, the parka is a staple in your winter wardrobe. We put a lot of thought into these choices, and these are great ideas for your holiday lists. Can you pick just one?? 

1. SAM Freestyle Jacket – Perfect fitting down jacket that is modern and warm and comes in so many fun colors!! You will want them all, but make sure to size up because it does run small. The shine makes it really stand out.
2. The North Face Womens Monlight Down Jacket in White – Who doesn’t love the glamour of a white down coat? This is a sporty coat that would be perfect for running errands, going to outdoor sporting events, or even the ski slopes. It is a great coat to add to your closet for both warmth and brightness this winter.
3. Filson Moorcroft Jacket – This is parka that is good in both rain and snow, and Filson produces excellent quality jackets. It is great to take on many adventures throughout the years.
4. Canada Goose “Lorette” Hooded Down Parka – This is our total dream coat! It keeps you SO warm and gives you the absolute best shape! This is one that you can have forever in your closet, and the fur hood adds a little glamour.
5. SAM Blake Jacket – This white gold jacket is a down filled jacket that has a lacquered look. How fun is that for winter? We both need this in our closets! Then they elevate it even more with a fur trimmed hood!  There is also a baby version, toddler version and kids style to match. Love!
6. Gotham II Down Parka (North Face) – This is a 550 fill Down coat that will keep your warm in the winter and we love the longer length and flattering waist detail.  This is a great alternative to Canadian Goose if you want to spend a little less, but not sacrifice the warmth and still have a nice fit.
7. GAP Cold Control High Shine Max Puffer Jacket – This is very similar to the SAM Freestyle Jacket, but 1/3 of the price. You can’t beat that! It also comes in petite, regular and tall.
8. Asos Brave Soul Thunder Padded Jacket in Pearlescent Effect – This is a fun puffer that has a pearly sheen to it. It is under $100 and a nice addition to any closet.
9. Brave the Cold Jacket/Lululemon – This is a 700 fill down parka that is warm, but still lightweight.  It is cinched in at the waist. The perfect jacket for an active lifestyle!
10. Orolay Women's Thickened Down Coat - We love the style of this coat. It reminds us of one by a very high end designer for a fraction of the price.
