"We’re at that point in the year when “all you need is a light jacket,” and if you’ve been keeping a pulse on the latest outerwear trends, then you know that there’s no shortage of amazing finds this fall. The problem? What I once spent on an investment pair of boots is now the cost of an everyday jacket, and if you do the math, you’re looking at a girl who slowly but surely won’t be able to afford either. With the cost of consumer goods seemingly rising overnight, I’ll admit that even I, a professional shopper, began to doubt my own sourcing abilities. But if there’s one thing I’m not, it’s a quitter. One internet deep-dive later, and my faith in affordable fashion has been restored.
let's face it: meeting someone in the wild is a lot easier said than done
The short window to sport an amazing jacket—arguably the most exciting part of fall fashion—can make it difficult to justify a higher price tag. While I find that some layers warrant the investment, I’d be hard-pressed to break the bank over a jacket that probably won’t see much use past November. (But if you saw me in a leopard bomber jacket from Ganni last week, just know that I had to have it.) Fortunately, if there’s one thing this season has taught me, it’s that looking chic doesn’t have to cost an arm and a leg. From luxe (faux) leather jackets to extra-polished trench coats, there’s a host of under-$150 jackets waiting to be discovered. And by “waiting to be discovered,” I mean that I’ve already discovered them–all you have to do is hit “add to cart.” That, ladies and gentlemen, is called teamwork.
