We’ve officially reached that time of year when “all you need is a light jacket.” And if you’ve been keeping tabs on outerwear trends, you know there’s no shortage of tempting finds this fall. The catch? What used to be my “investment boot” budget is now the going rate for an everyday jacket, and if you do the math, that’s a girl slowly but surely priced out of both. With the cost of seemingly everything rising overnight, even I (a professional shopper) started to doubt my sourcing skills. But if there’s one thing I am not, it’s a quitter. One internet deep-dive later, and my faith in affordable fashion has been fully restored.
The short window to actually wear an amazing jacket—arguably the best part of fall fashion—makes it tricky to justify a splurge. Some layers are worth the investment, sure, but I’m not about to break the bank for a piece that will be shoved to the back of my closet by December. (Though if you caught me in that leopard Ganni bomber last week… just mind your business.) Luckily, this season has reminded me that chic doesn’t have to mean spendy. From luxe faux leather to polished trench coats, I’ve found the best under-$150 jackets that are ready for checkout. Consider the sourcing handled—now that’s what I call teamwork.
