Parkas for the great outdoors
Parkas are a cold-weather clothing classic, particularly if you love outdoor sports. Whether you plan to spend your weekends hiking up mountains, or you just want to take your dog for a walk on crisp winter mornings, women's parkas are great winter jackets for keeping warm and cosy. Make sure yours fits you comfortably; if temperatures around you change a lot, it can be a good idea to go for parkas in a size bigger than what you usually wear. This will give you enough room to put on extra layers underneath on colder days.
What to look for in women's parka jackets
Parkas for women should have all the practical elements you need to survive a cold winter. A hood is an excellent feature; it may be trimmed with faux fur for extra warmth and a cute, stylish touch. You might prefer women's parka jackets with detachable hoods, allowing you to tailor your outfit for warmer or colder days. Look for plenty of pockets, too. Ideally, these should be fastened with zips for security. Many jackets will come with interior pockets as well as external ones, so you can keep all your possessions safe. Check out the insulation and waterproofing on your jacket, too. If you're going to be hiking or spending a lot of time outdoors, parkas are nice and warm while rain jackets are good waterproof options.
How to take women's parkas from the mountain to the city
Women's parka jackets don't have to be reserved for days in nature; they can also make a great fashion statement. Hourglass shapes should look for belted parkas for women, which ensure that your figure doesn't disappear under the layers of padding and insulation. You'll usually find parkas or between-seasons jackets available in either hip-length or thigh-length. For rectangular or inverted triangle body shapes, a hip-length parka can be a stylish, trendy option. Whichever length you go for, keep the bottom half of your body slim and streamlined. Women's parkas add a lot of volume, so tightly-fitted trousers or skinny jeans help to balance your figure. You could even try a feminine look, with a miniskirt and a pair of comfortable boots – just make sure you've got thick tights for the cold weather!
