When it comes to fashion, one of the easiest ways to elevate your outfit is with a bold print. Even the most simple silhouettes can look more high end when done in a pattern or print, especially one that’s as dramatic and timeless as houndstooth.
With winter still well underway, a statement jacket is the perfect way to stay warm whilst giving your outfit an upgrade, and we’re loving printed puffer jackets this season. One that caught our eye was the Houndstooth Mid Duvet Puffer Coat from Simply Be, which is currently on sale down from £80 to £40.

The chic houndstooth print makes the laid-back puffer style look more chic and elegant, and it has a more slimline fit that flatters your figure without overwhelming you. The Houndstooth Mid Duvet Puffer Coat has an adjustable toggle hood that helps keep it snug around your face, and buttons along the side that let you adjust the fit to make it work for your body shape.
Shoppers have also praised the jacket, with one five star review saying: "Beautiful coat well worth the money and a lovely fit."
Apart from looking sophisticated, the Houndstooth Mid Duvet Puffer Coat is also the perfect alternative to a much pricier version; the Water-Repellent Regular-Fit Jacket With Houndstooth Print from Hugo Boss. Although this jacket is also on sale, down from £229 to £159, snapping up the Simply Be version will save you £120 compared to buying the designer version.

Simply Be)There are also currently only two of the Hugo Boss jackets left in stock, both in a size large, whilst Simply Be offers inclusive sizing from a UK10 to a UK32. However, you’ll need to be quick to nab the bargain jacket, as sizes are already starting to sell out in the Houndstooth Mid Duvet Puffer Coat too.
If you have missed out on your size in the Simply Be puffer, we found a great alternative at Damson Madder that could fill the printer puffer jacket-shaped hole in your wardrobe. The Jennifer Check Puffer has a gingham print, rather than houndstooth, but comes in the trending mocha brown shade that nails this season’s mocha mousse trend whilst still being timeless enough to wear year after year.
Not only is the Jennifer Check Puffer cosy and warm, but it’s also fully convertible. The sleeves unzip to transform the puffer jacket into a quilted gilet, giving you two different jackets and two versatile ways of wearing it for the price of one.
Now you have no excuses not to be chic and cosy this winter!
