5 Fall Jackets I Am Coveting in 2023
Leather Trench Coat
This celebrity-approved fall trend is making a huge splash this year. While leather is always relevant at this time of the year, the leather trench coat is a fresh take on this age-old look. Its classic silhouette provides a sophisticated look that complements a variety of outfits, making it a staple for the season. On the other hand, the rugged leather fabrication puts an edgy spin on this silhouette. The leather trench coat has an ability to effortlessly elevate any ensemble, making it a must-have for those seeking a blend of fashion and function.
Modern Bomber Jacket
Whether you thrift a cool bomer jacket or buy new, this is a jacket you will absolutley fall in love with this season. Amongst all of the trending fall jackets, the bomber jacket has an air of casualness to it that makes it incredibly easy to style. Layer this coat overtop your sweater and jeans and you have an instant streetstyle-approved outfit or wear it with a dress or skirt for a bit of edginess.
Quilted Details
These cozy, padded styles not only provide warmth but also adds a touch of texture and dimension to any outfit. Quilted jackets often come in bright colors and fun prints, making them versatile pieces for any occasion. As the perfect blend of fashion and function, quilted jackets are a must-have for anyone looking to stay stylish and snug during the cooler months.
Shearling
Shearling jackets are making a strong comeback as a prominent trend for Fall 2023. The luxurious, plush lining adds both style and warmth, making them a popular choice for the colder season. Depending on your sense of style, you can opt for a full-on shearling jacket that is fuzzy from head-to-toe or a more muted design with just a sherpa lining on the inside. Whichever your choice, it’s such a strong style that will surely stand the test of time.
Built-In Scarf
Last year, the Toteme Wool jacket with built-in scarf made its’ grand debut and now it’s converted into one of the most must-have styles. There’s even an Amazon dupe! When it comes to style and functionality, this jacket can do it all, allowing you to leave your trusty winter accessory at home. I went ahead and rounded up a few alternatives and styles below.
