A chic top coat or jacket can make you look pulled together even when you’re just in leggings, sneakers, and a sweatshirt that has this morning’s coffee stain on it. Case in point: I wore this dramatic SEA jacket twice in the last few days with jeans and a tee (and in this case, a sweater too, because I was cold in the morning!) and it transformed basics into something interesting to look at. Here, I am wearing my beloved Mother Half Pipe ankle jeans (truly obsessed), this La Ligne sweater, a Donni white tee, my APC bag (look for less here), and Birks.
For something a little different, I am in love with this Carolyn Cape Canvas Jacket by SEA (have been noticing lots of cape silhouettes and details this fall! — consider this as a look for less!) and this Denim Trapeze Jacket by Banana Republic. Meanwhile, the Relaxed Barn Jacket from JCrew is a wardrobe staple — it feels like goes with everything in that versatile denim hue. Finally: how unbelievably chic is Fringed Wool Scarf Jacket from Toteme?! Their latest iteration of “the scoat” (scarf coat) they popularized a few seasons back.
