Short Down Vest

A down vest is a great transitional piece because it keeps you warm without all the fluff and heaviness of a coat with sleeves. Down vests also come in an array of variations—with or without a hood and in tons of colors and fabrics. Throw it on over a cashmere sweater or a crewneck sweatshirt with jeans, and you're good to go! Looking stylish and staying warm.

Oversized Denim Jacket

Who doesn't love a denim jacket? It's a classic for a reason—because it goes with everything. Choose an oversized jacket and it'll feel like a big warm hug when you put it on. Layer it with a cozy knit sweater or fleece or keep it simple with just a T-shirt underneath. Denim jackets also make for a fab spring and summer jacket.

Quilted Jacket

This fun coat can be dressed up with a black mini skirt and sweater or worn casually with dark wash jeans and a black tee. Either way, you can't go wrong! It's cute, cozy and comfy. Get the jacket in black for a more classic look or a fun color like green for a pop of color.

Trench Coat

Everyone should own a trench coat, as it is great for rainy days—but also perfect for the fall when you need a light jacket. The traditional trench is khaki-colored cotton that is rain-resistant. Find a trench that you love, and you'll have it for years and years. Trenches even come in various colors, such as red and black! A trench coat shows that you are stylish and appreciate timeless pieces.

Leather Jacket

A leather jacket is an investment that keeps on giving year after year. There are endless options when you are purchasing a leather jacket: the motorcycle, the bomber, the blazer and so many more. Wear it casually with jeans, a sweater and sneakers. Or, for a fun and flirty night out, you can pair it with a slip dress or a mini silk skirt with a blouse. Tip: Look for a leather jacket at a vintage store for that cool "lived-in" look.

Suede Jacket

A suede jacket is a fabulous piece to have in your wardrobe. You can style your suede jacket with jeans and any top of your choice, or with a fun, flowy skirt and a funky tee. This could be a striped tee, a multicolored tee or a silky blouse. Just make sure to never wear your suede jacket in the rain.

Fleece

A fleece is an essential that is perfect for layering. It can be styled super easily, which makes this piece so appealing. You can throw your fleece on with a pair of jeans and sneakers to run errands, or wear it open with a sweater underneath.

Blazer

A blazer is a basic piece that you will wear over and over again. Whether you go for a tried-and-true black, navy, gray or camel—or up the ante with a plaid or pattern—you can't go wrong. You'll find yourself reaching for this piece to go with jeans, over a sweatshirt or sweater or even with a slip dress for a night on the town. And the good news is, blazers never go out of style.
