Fall Coats That Are Like A Big, Warm Hug From A Blanket | HuffPost Life

Wrap yourself up in these perfect seasonal jackets.

HuffPost Staff

It’s not quite chilly enough for a big puffer coat, and it’s too cold for a jean jacket. If you’ve hung out at enough tailgates or soccer games, you know the best way to bundle up in the fall is to wrap yourself in a big wool blanket ― and thankfully, some designers have made coats that emulate that same feeling (but also have pockets and fastenings, so you can actually walk around without it falling off your shoulders).

We’ve rounded up some cozy fall coats that’ll keep you toasty, but still feel like you’re snuggled up. Check them out below.

Before You Go

Must-Have Products To Achieve The Trendy 'Dolphin Skin' Look

This protective primer that even has 'glow' in the name(01 of08)

“The first step is to shield your skin from damage," Samer Jaber, a board-certified dermatologist at Washington Square Dermatology in New York, told us. "Make sure you are taking care of your skin by using sunscreen daily to protect your skin from damaging UV rays to minimize discoloration and premature wrinkle formation.”

Supergoop’s Glowscreen SPF 40+++ isn't your momma's sunscreen. It's a great way to ward off those pesky environmental factors that contribute to signs of aging — and it provides a hydrated, pearlescent base for makeup application.

This skin-plumping essential that dermatologists love(02 of08)

As we age, the cellular turnover rate of our skin starts to slow, which can result in a duller complexion and a lack of elasticity. Not very dolphin-like.

Retinol, which Jaber calls “an all-star addition to skin care routines,” can fortunately help restore this turnover process and promote collagen production. The A-Passioni Retinol Cream by Drunk Elephant uses 1% vegan retinol along with a triple peptide blend to visibly firm and strengthen, creating a supple skin texture like no other.

These handy pads to improve skin texture(03 of08)

Alpha hydroxy acids are known for their resurfacing abilities and for leaving behind smoother, plumper skin — the perfect dolphin skin canvas.

“You might consider substituting a gentle exfoliating pad instead of your retinoid one night a week," Jaber said. These ready-to-use Facial Radiance Pads by First Aid Beauty contain both glycolic and lactic acids to gently exfoliate and brighten while toning the skin.

This cult-favorite moisturizer that keeps skin healthy(04 of08)

Retinoids and exfoliation can be very drying, Kirsch warned.

“You can definitely overdo it, which is why I recommend using these exfoliants and actives in a measured approach and letting your skin build tolerance,” he said. He also came up with a technique he calls the “moisture sandwich”: using a moisturizer on the skin prior to a retinoid, then adding another layer of moisturizer on top as a way to mitigate dryness.

CeraVe Moisturizing Cream is a crowd favorite because of its lipid-restoring ceramides and its heavy dose of hyaluronic acid to draw in moisture.

This multitasking, complexion-boosting illuminator(05 of08)

The Hollywood Flawless Filter by Charlotte Tilbury is a great way to customize your level of sheen and build a radiant complexion. And don't worry if you're confused about whether this is a foundation, primer or highlight — it's a little bit of all three (and then some). The product can be mixed with or used under foundation, worn on its own or applied like a highlight to focal points of the face that reflect the light.

"Less is more when it comes to makeup," Phillips said. "The key to dolphin skin is hydration, seamless blending and knowing where to add powder and where to let the skin shine."

This bronzer for all over the face(06 of08)

This Allure 2020 Best of Beauty Award Winner is one of Phillips’ must-haves for achieving dolphin skin.

“To add warmth, I use Nudestix Nudie Matte in Sunkissed onto the cheeks and anywhere the sun would naturally hit for a fresh, bronzed, ‘out-of-the-sun’ glow,” Phillips said. One of the most attractive qualities of this convenient stick bronzer is its nondrying formula and balmy texture. It’s highly blendable and plays nice with other cream and liquid products, so you don’t have to worry about product feathering or separating. The dense stipple brush included on one side of the stick makes this a great option for on-the-go applications and a really seamless finish.

This shimmery, glimmering highlight powder that melts into the skin(07 of08)

I think we can all agree by now that luminosity is a key feature of dolphin skin. The perfect highlighting product can really make or break this whole flipper fad.

Phillips recommends the Tom Ford Sheer Highlighting Duo in Reflect Guilt because of the “perfect amount of reflective luster” it adds to the skin. The finely milled pressed powder formula is satin-like in texture and seemingly absorbs into the skin, leaving behind a wet-looking finish. Phillips likes to apply this highlighter on the high points of the face, like the tops of cheekbones, brow bones and just above the cupid’s bow. You can also apply this product wet to achieve even more vibrancy and eye-catching shine.

This radiant and hydrating glow in a bottle(08 of08)

This product is the pièce de résistance to a finished face that’s ready to take a dip in the dolphin skin pond. The Iconic London Glow Spray contains finely milled microshimmers to catch the light while doubling as a hydrating setting mist to keep your makeup in place. The formulation also includes a bevy of skin-loving ingredients like vitamin E and green tea extract, which team together to condition skin and protect it throughout the day from oxidative and environmental stressors. The result, according to Phillips, is a “fresh, glowy look that won’t budge.”
