Every season, it can be difficult to know what to buy and
what to skip – especially when it comes to jackets. To make it easier, you have
to ask yourself certain questions: Does this flatter my body? Will this go with
what I already own? How will it go
with what I already own?
Well, this season, a short leather jacket is your best bet.
This essential cover up will exude the sexy bad-girl-gone-chic look that is
both modern and timeless. It is also one of the most versatile jackets you will
get this fall. The cardigan can be too delicate, the coat can be too bulky and
other cropped jackets may not have the edge you are looking for. For those
who are vegans, there are many alternatives to leather that will look just like it. As
you can see, you can wear it with everything and for practically any occasion.
On a date – If you are heading out to a nice dinner or
cocktails with your fella, slip into that structured dress you have stowed in
your closet then throw on this sleek Topshop motorcycle-esque jacket. Now, you
are not only warm, but edgy too, at a reasonable price.
Running errands – Who doesn’t want to feel cute while
grocery shopping, lunching with friends or walking the dog? This also works for
casual nights out. Spice up that t-shirt and jeans uniform with this black
Belstaff leather goodie. This is the epitome of casual cool.
Out & About – This legging and tank combination can go
casual or dressy depending on the shoes. Flats will say stylish day attire
while heels, booties or boots scream party. Whether its out with the girls or a
cool event, this look will get you noticed in that wonderful way a girl loves.
