The day my jacket collection comes out of storage each year is comparable to waking up on my birthday or Christmas morning. This morning, I stepped off the train and felt the cool, crisp city air hit me and thought, “damn, I wish I wore a jacket” and felt upset that I wasted even one day of fall jacket-wearing bliss.
Jackets are the solution to all of our problems. Have no idea what to wear? Choose a jacket and build the rest of your outfit around it. Just want to wear jeans and a T-shirt? Great, add a chic jacket on top and go fool the world into thinking you put effort into your outfit. Want to wear the shirt you had on last night that you got a pizza sauce stain on? Jacket, jacket, jacket.
Fall fashion is undoubtedly the season of dressing that get’s us the most excited, and the best part of it is the opportunity to top off an outfit with a jacket that isn’t a puffer coat that goes down to our ankles. It’s a whole look rolled into one piece, and who can argue with that?
From blazers to trench coats to corduroy to dreamy, structured, ankle-length numbers, these are our favorite jackets of the season:
1. Trench coats
pants / jacket / sweater / loafers / sunglasses
2. Blazers
blazer / leggings / tee / sneakers / bag
3. Moto and Statement
jeans / sweater / sweater in plus-size / sneakers / sunglasses
4. Extra-long lengths
jeans / sweater / boots / bag / jacket
5. Tailored
jacket / jeans / sweater / booties / bag
