Every Casual Jacket You Should Have In Your Closet Right Now

If we had unlimited funds at our disposal, no doubt we would buy every single jacket we’ve ever wanted and display them all in a giant, two-story, walk-in closet. But until the ghost of Ed McMahon pays us a visit, we’ll have to settle for a few key pieces to satisfy our sartorial lust.  

When it comes to the best jackets to complement your casualwear, we know how to pick the cream of the crop. Here are the ones you absolutely need in your closet right now.

Denim

No other form of casual outerwear can surpass the endurance of a denim jacket. And thanks to the variety of washes and lengths available, you can find one suitable to your tastes even if you’re not exactly into denim. Wear a light indigo jacket with black jeans, drop earrings and bangles for a look that says you’re ready to conquer the weekend.

Leather

Ok this one you probably already have, but there’s nothing wrong with a little reaffirmation as to why you love your leather jacket so much: it’s timeless, edgy and downright sexy. Fit into any downtown city scene with a sleek, asymmetrical biker jacket over a long sweater with a statement necklace, skinny jeans and army boots.

Shearling

The chicest jacket you’ll ever own comes in the form of one lined with a shearling collar. It’s all about the mix of sheepskin and leather that gives it a cool, aviator vibe. Sparks will fly when you pair a navy shearling jacket with leather leggings, a silver blouse and high-heeled Chelsea boots.

Poncho

Winter coats are fine and all, but wearing the same cover-up every day gets old. Switch up your cold weather style with a large, knitted poncho. It will keep you just as warm, plus you can play around with different silhouettes by wearing it with a belt to accentuate your waistline. Add thigh-high boots and a leather satchel, and you’ll rule the concrete catwalk in a New York minute.

Stock up on these essential jackets to ensure your outerwear game is strong. Just don’t blame us if you find yourself in need of a bigger closet.
