- Style: We looked for the most stylish puffer jackets for women that we could find. Just because the weather is cold doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice on style!

- Reviews and trusted brands: We included raincoats from our list of trusted brands with solid reputations - Marks & Spencer, The North Face, Amazon and more. Where it wasn’t possible to test the coats ourselves we only selected waterproof coats that had a large volume of positive reviews from trusted shoppers.
