A fun warning for you: close your eyes and imagine the visual embodiment of autumn. Have you imagined bright orange, yellow and brown leaves scattered across the park? Or maybe you pictured him snuggling up with a pumpkin spice latte? For me, imagining fall conjures up all of these images, but I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I mostly dream of one specific thing: jackets.
I have to preface this by saying that fall fashion in general can make me dream for hours – who doesn’t want to think about knee-high boots, chunky knits and leather pants? But there’s something about jackets that, to me, epitomizes what fall is all about. And I know I’m not the only one who feels this way. From Paris to New York, the fashion crowd swears by the foundation this fall. Blazers are one of the best things about fall; is the sauce that can take any ensemble from simple to spicy. Need proof? Ahead, I’ve rounded up 13 fall jacket outfit ideas from New Yorkers and Parisians that prove how this staple works every time. Plus, I’ve shopped every look so you’ll be able to own the recipe yourself.
