The L.A.-girl urge to load up on puffer jackets every winter is strong. This may be becausewinter fashion is heavily inclined toward heavy coats and jackets meant for subzero temperatures, and they just look so cozy. Can you blame us for wanting in?
However, after several years of living between New York and L.A., I noticed I only actually wear a handful of jackets when I'm on the West Coast. There's no need to force a fur-coat moment when a beach day is also a viable option. Save the puffers for skiing or your trips east, and stick to the below 32 lightweight jackets to keep you more than toasty through the mild winters in L.A., Miami, and the like.
Between bombers, denim, moto jackets, and very fashioncropped numbers, there are so many good options that you won't envy your East Coast friends and their puffers again. I promise.

I must say, the grown-up bomber jacket is my favorite trend of them all.It's perfect.Bear hug.So fresh and so clean.This khaki bomber will always be in.California's fashion heritage is grounded in denim, and that's no coincidence. This lightweight but warm layer looks best when layered, so size up to ensure enough space for knits and sweaters underneath.I'm only interested in dark denim lately.It's 50% off!These get better with time.The corduroy collar sets it off.I've been on the fence about moto jackets for a while now, but Emilia's outfit has changed my entire perspective. The Von Dutch of it all is appealing to all my senses and is making me see the style anew. When styling, get experimental to avoid looking basic.
