In case you missed it, it’s getting cold outside. Unless you’re lucky enough to be planning a vacation, you’ve probably already packed away your shorts and bathing suits. The good news is, with crisp fall weather comes a crisp new wardrobe!
If you’re not keeping up on your cool-weather clothing, we’re here to help! There’s no reason why you can’t dress just as cute, if not cuter, as the summertime even as the temperature tapers off. After all, it is sweater season!
When it comes to fall fashion, there are certain staple items that every woman should not only own, but own multiples of. A great selection of jeans? Of course! A slew of sweaters? Is that even a question? But, jackets? Odds are you have a few, but you can never go wrong incorporating more into your garb! Jackets not only come in many distinct styles, but they’re also wonderfully practical. Put them on when it’s cold, take them off when you’re warm. Wear them open for a more casual look (and a little airflow), or closed when you’re feeling more traditional (or just plain chilly). You can find a wonderful jacket that matches the mood for practically any occasion, so why not stock up? In fact, you should consider owning all of the following!
A Trench Coat
Trench coats are timeless, bold, and stylish. They’re sexy without being revealing and a touch mysterious, so they’re plenty of fun. You can dress them up or down, and the extra length provides additional protection from the elements. Most of them are even waterproof! How’s that for practicality?
An Edgy Moto Jacket
Motorcycle styling takes these leather jackets to the next level! A bounty of zippers creates a ton of visual interest, emphasizing the moto jacket’s edgy lines and angles. Leather, pleather, and suede material will contrast beautifully with the rest of your outfit, making this piece really pop. Start looking around and you may be able to find this jacket in interesting colors and materials. The best part? You don’t even have to ride a motorcycle to pull it off!
A Classic Denim Jacket
It doesn’t get more classic than this! Denim jackets have been popular for decades, and for good reason! They’re comfortable, casual and cool. The blue works wonders as a pop of color in a primary or complimentary pallet, or pairs perfectly with jeans for an analogous look. If you want something you can wear year after year, look no further! Denim jackets only get better the more you break them in.
A Stylish Bomber Jacket
Bomber jackets have come a long way! Once masculine and utilitarian, bomber jackets are now available in all sorts of colors and materials, transforming into a cool, chic look for women. They’re still relatively simple, but that’s what makes them awesome. These days, most brands put their own spin on fashionable bombers, so find one that speaks to you!
A Cute Quilted Jacket
The quilting gives some pizzazz to solid colors, adding fabulous texture and pattern to otherwise ordinary fabrics. A diamond pattern is standard, but be on the lookout for any type of quilting — seriously fun patterns are out there! Quilted jackets are typically lightweight, so they probably won’t accompany you into the winter months, but they’re perfect for when you need a touch of extra warmth and comfort. In terms of style, we love quilted jackets for adding just the right amount of visual interest!
A Dressy Overcoat
An elegant, enduring look, an overcoat is probably the most stylish way you could ever bundle up. Overcoats are always warm and offer great coverage, making them as practical as they are stylish. Some people stray away from wearing overcoats, worrying they’ll look overdressed in everyday situations, but we advise you to ignore this inhibition. If ever caught in this situation, just enjoy being the most glamorous person in the room! You’ve earned it.
There’s a world of stylish jackets out there, and you know what? The perfect one is probably waiting for you at your local Turn Style! Head in today to explore what kind of warm and cozy finds you can discover!
