As much as I love summer, I have to admit that fall has my heart. There’s just something about that crisp, cool air that makes layering not just practical, but fun. Fall is the ultimate season for transitional pieces, and for me, a denim or leather jacket is always the hero of the wardrobe. (Gimme leather every day of the week, TBH!)
Currently, I’ve been on the hunt for jackets that are stylish, versatile, and budget-friendly, because let’s be real—I don’t have tons of wiggle room to splurge right now. Lucky for you, I’ve rounded up my best finds so you can get a sneak peek. These are the jackets I’m buying this fall, and the ones you’ll want to live in, too!
Open Edit Pebble Faux Leather Jacket ($77.67)
I’m obsessed with this jacket, which also happens to be 35% off right now! It’s long enough to hit a little past the hips, which gives it an effortlessly chic vibe, while adding extra interest to any outfit.
I personally love how it looks over dresses (my go-to these days), but it’ll also elevate jeans, skirts, or just a simple tee. The sleek faux-leather finish, sharp notched lapels, and structured front flap pockets make it a piece that works equally well for both coffee runs and drinks after work. It’s the kind of jacket that plays by its own rules, and your closet will thank you.
Caslon Cotton Trench Coat ($84.50)
Hello, 50% off! This trench coat is a steal for the season, when the weather turns rainy but you still want to look put-together.
I’ve always had a soft spot for trench coats, especially ones with a military-inspired vibe—they add a little edge to sweet blouses or dresses and create a grunge-ladylike contrast I love. This one also gets bonus points for being neutral enough to layer over anything in your wardrobe. The cotton fabric feels soft yet structured, and the tortoiseshell-patterned buttons give it just the right touch of classic detail.
Levi’s Techy Nylon Bomber Jacket ($79.99)
33% off and effortlessly cool? Yes, please. To me, bomber jackets are the epitome of chic, sporty style, and this Levi’s version nails it. Lightweight but warm, you can throw on a bomber for a casual coffee run, a Saturday stroll, or even layered over athleisure when you’re headed to the gym.
I love the modern, utilitarian vibe of the bellows pockets—they make it feel practical without losing any of that street-style edge. Personally, I’d style it with jeans and sneakers, but it would also look amazing tossed over a midi dress to add some unexpected contrast.
Levi’s Women’s Essential Faux Leather Moto Jacket ($79.99)
If you know me, you know I cannot live without a leather jacket—it’s my guilty pleasure. Ever since I was 18, they’ve been the piece I reach for when I want to feel a little more like a rock star. And this Levi’s Essential Faux Leather Moto Jacket (33% off right now!) checks all the boxes.
The fit is flattering, the faux leather is durable, and it layers perfectly over cozy sweaters as the temps dip. I’m also partial to the oxblood color, because it feels bold, rich, and just a touch more fashion-forward than classic black.
VICI Collection Wren Mixed Media Check Jacket ($98)
Plaid perfection! The mixed media jacket is giving me all the fall vibes. With its wool-kissed check pattern and clever layered design, it looks like you’ve tossed it on over your favorite hoodie, except without the bulk. Genius.
This will help pull together jeans and ankle boots for a polished, fall-ready look, but will still keep you feeling casual and comfy. Basically, it’s SO cute and one of those jackets you’ll find yourself reaching for to pair with more outfits than you think.
At the end of the day, fall jackets are all about versatility, and these picks prove you don’t have to splurge to find pieces that feel chic, cozy, and totally you. The right jacket makes every outfit (and every crisp fall day) a little better.
