I Tried It
In my soft life eraandmy soft accessory era.
A few seasons ago, padded fashion was associated only with bulky winter puffer coats.
Now, pillowy accessories (jackets included) have a light-as-air feel, perfect for springtime and transitional dressing.
The Pillow Tabby was originally designed in response to the times we were living through during the pandemic.
Both contemporary and fast fashion brands followed Coachs lead, dropping puffed-up pieces left and right.
(Spoiler alert: I tried it and the hype is real.)
Yes, puffy add-ons can be intimidating, but I promise theyre not just for the runway.
Shop my favorites, ahead.
Why should my bulky laptop prevent me from rocking a teenyPillow Tabby?
Fully committing to the theme, I added a few more Coach accessories, like aC-print headbandand itty-bittyhandbag earrings.
Acinched taupe blazerserved as the ideal elevated basic, which paired flawlessly withlight-wash jeans.
Given that silver is having a moment, the metallic was a clear choice.
As a play on the Abacus rings, I stacked up my arm withmatching silver bangles.

Crews jewelry and accessories.
So, so good.)
I kept the Loewe love going with another puffy piece: the newPuffer Goyabag in shiny nappa lambskin.
From there, I threw onwhite-bright sunglasseswith sharp angles to contrast the pillowy goodness.
Thus, my Michelin-Man-but-make-it-fashion look was complete.
Theyre too good to limit to the indoors.
After giving these four looks a test-drive, I can confidently say the pillow accessory trend is for me.
Shop the puffy goodness for yourself even if you dont have Loewe $$$.
