Dynamic Duo! 10 Unbeatable Indoor-Outdoor Jacket Pairings to Beat the Cold
Traditionally, outerwear is meant to be worn outside. But when temps reach snowpocalypse-level cold, all bets are off. For maximum insulation both indoors and outdoors, we're doubling up on coats. We've treated "indoor jackets" (otherwise known as "jackets" in the spring) as the finishing touch to an otherwise completed outfit. They're lighter in weight and differ in personality, depending on style. And we've coupled them with complementary heavy-duty coats that speak to seamless sophistication, offbeat whimsy, and everything in between.
