Fall is here, and that means layering season has officially begun!

The right jacket can completely elevate an outfit, making layering both practical and fashionable. Here are three jackets that I reach for constantly during the cooler months!

1. The Classic Trench Coat

A trench coat is a timeless wardrobe essential. A camel-colored trench instantly feels like fall and pairs effortlessly with almost any outfit. You can style it in multiple ways—left open for a relaxed vibe or belted for a more polished, chic look. Two of my favorites are the trench from L’academie on REVOLVE and the oversized version from Oak + Fort, both perfect for layering over casual or dressy ensembles.

2. The Denim Jacket

No closet is complete without a denim jacket. It’s versatile enough to wear year-round and a fantastic layering piece. I prefer an oversized fit, like the one from Agolde, which adds a relaxed, stylish touch. Denim jackets come in all sorts of shades—light, medium, dark, white, cream, camel, and even printed designs—so there’s plenty of room to experiment and make your outfit pop.

3. The Oversized Blazer

An oversized blazer is a must-have for adding structure and style. It’s perfect for dressing up casual outfits or adding sophistication to a more formal look. The relaxed yet polished silhouette gives an effortlessly fashionable vibe and instantly makes any outfit look put-together. I find myself reaching for mine repeatedly during the fall months.

These three jackets—the trench coat, denim jacket, and oversized blazer—are fall essentials that make layering fun and stylish. Each one offers versatility and comfort while helping you create chic, polished outfits all season long. Investing in these pieces means you’ll always have go-to outerwear to elevate any look!
