Some people love hot, tropical weather, and I am not one of them. I live for the soft cashmere, flat black boots, and – best of all – jackets, of fall fashion. Being the outerwear-obsessed woman that I am, I’ve been scoping the season’s hottest jacket trends, and bring you the 7 pieces you must own this year:
Military Jacket/Anorak:
The military jacket trend is hotter than ever – try a long, slimming style like this under-$200 Dolce Vita ‘GI’ Jacket ($178).
Faux Fur Vest:
Get this Rachel Zoe-approved look with this Sienna Rose Fox Fur/Knit Vest ($198). The knit detail on the back is an extra treat.
Cape:
Yes, capes and capelets are here to stay. How totally wearable is this Aqua Wool Capelet ($148)?
Leather Jacket:
Leather jackets are eternally cool – how about trying this Trouvé Structured Shoulder Leather blazer ($298) style this year?
Camel Coat:
Camel coats – the classic, preppy jacket – are having a big comeback this year. Get an incredibly chic one for yourself with this DKNY “Sidney” Reefer coat ($395).
Puffer Coat:
This Joie Arlington Puffer Coat ($588) nails the puffer trend, while still being surprisingly fitted and not bulky. Nice.
Cropped Jacket:
Cropped jackets are amazing for layering, and always look feminine. This Alexa Chung for Madewell diana cropped jacket ($188) is one of my favorites in the style.
