We usually spend the Christmas holidays with family in a Chicago suburb. They laugh at me because of all my layers, but I tell them my blood is thin from living in California.

I'd like a new winter coat--warm enough for real winter, but also suitable for occasional chilly nights here.

Any suggestions? My first order became unavailable and was cancelled. I have an 8-yr-old Tahari puffer bought at NAS, but it doesn't fit so well and my body has changed. I feel like the Michelin man in the Tahari, and it's a pain to zip up.

I'd like a lightweight coat that can be stuffed into my carryon bag, that is also reasonably stylish.

I think I'll try the red Sosken, but would like any other suggestions. Thanks
