I think this is straightforward enough, right? If you’ve chosen to read this story, then you too have probably struggled with finding the perfect outerwear for the in-between season of fall—and I get why. It’s not too hot, not too cold, and getting your hands on a jacket that’s "just right” isn’t always the easiest. Of course, that doesn’t mean it’s not possible. All it takes is a little patience and research and, luckily, that’s what you have me for.
But honestly, putting the fact that it’s literally my job aside, I’d probably be looking into this for my own purposes right about now anyway, so we can chalk this one up as a win-win. From blazers to shackets to trenches, below you’ll find twenty-five fall-ready jackets (and light coats) that can easily be your go-tos come autumn, and possibly into winter, too. To get started shopping all my picks at a range of price points, simply keep scrolling.
