The 5 Fall Coats You Need Before Winter Officially Sets In

It's cold, but not to point of "where is my puffer" freezing. But forgoing outerwear altogether isn't an option either. It's this weird awkward time in life where you're overheating one second, then you step into shade, and you're shivering. And let's discuss this  insane temperature range: It's as low as the 40s in the morning, it can reach as high as 70 at noon, and then drop back down to 30s.
