Bookending my black puffer

pirouette

I mentioned on the blog yesterday my love of a black puffer. This is a picture of my current puffer bookended with black boots. The photo is from last winter as I haven’t actually worn it yet as it’s not cold enough we usually get the really cold weather in January and February. The second photo is a lighter black puffer which I am wearing currently again bookended with black.

They suit you! You wear high contrast very well.

The ski type boots with the new puffer are very cute.

Those boots pair so well with the puffer. And I echo Brooklyn, you look lovely in high contrast!

Wow--you make utilitarian boots look so cute! Also love the addition of a good beanie.

Nailed it! Looking great

The light bottoms make the outfit pop, IMO.

Thank you all Brooklyn, Olive Green, Lisa, Carol and Angie for taking the time to look and comment. The long coat is Tommy Hilfigner and the short one Dekker. The ski boots are Steve Madden I wear them for the rain not snow as we hardly ever get snow. The costs are both a couple of years old but they wear well so I don’t need a new one just yet!

These are great inspo pics! You look so good in this combo. As Angie pointed out, I like the light jeans with these outfits, too.

Thanks Firecracker.

It’s lovely to get such positive feedback. I rarely post as I have a uniform minimalist wardrobe so I have very little variety to post.

You look great in these. I especially love the long one! I love the black with the light pants -- as Brooklyn said, you wear high contrast well!

Looks great to me. Maybe because this is how I styled my black puffer last winter
Your hair is gorgeous!

Love the black puffers on you, you make them look so very chic. I especially adore the second outfit - the combination with the ski boots and the white pant is prefection.

Your black puffer combos look terrific, love the contrast using the lighter wash pants.

Pirouette I understand that you only or mostly wear black and white. I really admire this. I too feel fab in black.

pirouette

Thanks Jamie ,Katerina ,Dee and Star for looking and commenting. Star I love black white and all shades of grey. Sometimes I feel a bit boring but I feel great in black so no plans to change. Plus it’s the easiest colour to find when shopping which really helps.

Pirouette I am curious, do you wear blue denim jeans?

Sal

These are cool puffer looks - practical and modern. I agree the bookending makes it all cohesive.

pirouette

Thank you Sal. Star I do wear blue denim jeans usually with a white or grey tee shirt or grey jacket. I even bought a blue hoodie this year a first for me to wear with the denim jeans. I feel odd if I don’t wear some black like I need to change my clothes to something black when I get home. It’s definitely my safe colour.
