Fall Outerwear Essentials

If I told you how many of these vests I had to my name, you probably wouldn’t believe me. It’s a little ridiculous. BUT I wear them all. the. time. I love pairing a vest with my athleisure outfits – leggings and a cozy sweater or sweatshirt. They also go well with ripped jeans and a flannel button-up or oversized sweater. You really can’t go wrong!  
I feel like a utility jacket is the most basic, “of course” kind of jacket for the Fall. It’s one of those everyday-wear jackets, that you can throw on with just about any outfit and feel good in. Plus, I love the standard green color. I tend to only buy black or neutral outerwear, so my green utility jacket is the only one that I have with color. 
I picked up this jacket last year and loved having it for the Fall and beginning of Winter. Layered over sweaters, with a scarf, it’s perfect. I feel just a little bit tougher and stronger when I wear it, so that’s an added bonus. 
This kind of option is great for feeling a little more put together. With just a little bit of structure and the standard collar, it looks really cute with a more feminine top and booties. I love layering a scarf over the top, too! 
This quilted jacket style is a classic. I picked this one up on sale for the later months of Fall when there’s a winter chill in the air. The rich, buttery color is so, so pretty in person and looks really pretty contraster against dark wash jeans.

    I have to agree with you on the vest! I also like to wear mine over workout clothes or jeans and a basic long sleeve! So versatile!

    I love the vest and have a few in my clothing arsenal as well. Hard to pass them up when I see a pretty one in the store or on a blog post. They are great both in the fall and the spring when weather is so iffy and you just need the cold breeze off your back. xo

    I am in need of a moto jacket for fall and winter. I love this one! Thanks! I have a suggestion for your Dearly Box(: I would love to see posts on how to style what we receive in our boxes. Perhaps how you style the pieces, as well as how other ladies style them. Thanks! Susan
