No fall look is complete without the perfect outerwear as the final layer
Fall is just around the corner, which means it’s time to switch out those tanks, shorts and sandals for cozy knits, scarves and boots. And, of course, no look is complete without the perfect outerwear as the final layer.
From office-appropriate coats to functional rain jackets and oversized blazers, we’ve gathered some of our favourites so that you can take on the season in style…
If you’re ready to splurge this fall, look no further than this coat from Sentaler. Ethically crafted with Peruvian alpaca, it is fully lined, and has a relaxed, yet sophisticated fit. The plush fabric will keep you warm and toasty, and the navy and grey houndstooth pattern makes this a definite showstopper.Available here
Practical and comfy, this open-front coat by Zara will allow you to layer up as much as you need to. Throw it over top of dress pants and a silk shirt, or denim jeans and an oversized sweater, and it will fast become a daily staple. The camel shade has fall written all over it, but you can also choose pink, off-white or black.Available here
All Saints is known for its great quality leather, and this jacket is perfect if you want to add a slight edge to your look. Classic black goes with just about everything, and is enhanced by the gold-tone metal detailing. Pair it with your favourite jeans, a silk dress, a ribbed turtleneck and more.Available here
Whether you’re in sweatpants or a leather skirt, this vintage-inspired quilted jacket by Wilfred will keep you looking effortlessly trendy all day. It’s made with water-repellent fabric, filled with 100 percent recycled materials, and the olive shade is very apt for the season.Available here
Looking for a statement coat? Bundle up in style with this Max Mara number featuring wool, alpaca and mohair. The oversized fit, wide lapels and concealed buttons add all the glam you require, and the pink shade is fabulous for those golden fall days.Available here
An oversized blazer is a great transitional piece for the fall, and this budget-friendly one from H&M is one of our favourites. Light beige is a neutral option that can be worn with plenty of outfits, such as jeans and a shirt, a skirt and boots, or loose pants and a camisole.Available here
Here’s the perfect something for those wet days when you’re on the go. Lululemon’s rain jacket features a two-way zipper, exterior pockets, a hidden phone sleeve, and a waist drawcord so you can adjust it as you please. From a day at the office to running errands or heading out on a stroll, this functional coat will serve you well.Available here
You can never go wrong with a trench—and we love this cropped version that features detailing such as the tortoise buttons, pleated storm flap on the back, belted cuffs and side pockets. Wear it with basics such as jeans and a T-shirt, or leather pants and a button-down for something rather Parisian chic.Available here
Keep things trendy with this cozy shacket by Dynamite in brown and grey plaid. From spending the day at the pumpkin patch to grabbing coffee with friends at your local neighbourhood joint, it will become a go-to for all your quintessential fall activities.Available here
Everyone needs an easy zip-up for those chillier days when you need to run errands, head to a workout class and more. Uniqlo’s fleece jacket comes in a variety of colours, is made with recycled materials, and is very fluffy indeed. Believe us when we say you won’t want to take this one off.Available here
Sleek and modern, this best-selling trench by Oak and Fort comes with an updated fit that includes a shorter length and oversized fit. Wear it with dress pants and a neutral blouse for a chic day at work. Grabbing a bite afterwards? Throw on a sweater dress, knee-high boots, and off you go.Available here
Patterns come to life during autumn, and this straight-fit coat by Only is another one of our favourites for the season. It’s versatile, lightweight, and will bring a subtle pop of colour to all of your looks on those just-right temperature days.Available here
