Statement Jackets for Fall

BY: BRAEDEN VILLENEUVE

With fall temperatures dropping, finding inspiration to wear cute outfits is becoming more and more difficult. Getting out of bed on frigid mornings is hard, putting together a cute outfit for class or a coffee run should be easy. A trendy jacket is perfect for this time of year because anyone can look stylish with a simple jeans and t-shirt combo and a statement jacket thrown on top. It’s style without even trying!

Denim

Asos Denim Girlfriend Jacket, $61

Denim jackets are always in style. Try a slightly oversized look this season to be trendy.

The bomber

Forever 21 Padded Bomber Jacket, $32.90 || Mango Leather Look Bomber Jacket, $55.00

Bomber jackets are one of the biggest trends this fall. Everyone from Gigi Hadid and Kendall Jenner to girls in my marketing class have been sporting bombers. The style is everywhere so it’s easy to find, affordable, and there’s plenty of cool options (like this leather one that combines two of my favorite fall trends).

Faux Fur

Forever 21 Faux Fur-Trim Overcoat, $49.90 || Forever 21 Faux Fur Hooded Jacket, $52.90

A faux fur jacket is bound to keep you toasty on those “suddenly winter” days. These coats are perfect when attempting to look a bit more polished.

Moto/Leather

ASTR Faux Suede Moto Jacket, $88 || Warehouse Leather Look Biker Jacket, $89

A leather jacket is a staple. Try the classic shape in a suede material or a bold color, like burgundy or dark green, for a fresh take on the look!

Velvet

Forever 21 Velour Jacket, $19.90 || Boohoo Tilly Shawl Collar Velvet Duster, $52.00

Velvet is one of my favorite textures this season because it makes your whole outfit seem so much more put-together. A duster, like this one from Boohoo, is perfect for a girl’s night out and the velour bomber would be easy for class or brunch.

A fun jacket is the perfect investment since it can be tossed over any outfit and instantly add a touch of personal style.
