In New York there is a fleeting window of weather when it’s crisp but not yet cold, warm but no longer so much so that you’re coming undone on a brisk walk. It’s my favorite season for getting dressed. And while “sweater weather” gets a lot of love – jackets are the thing that make my heart skip a beat. They’re the magic third piece to an outfit that makes everything more interesting. And Talbots is a reliably great source for finding jackets in fun textures, cuts and colors in classic yet modern shapes.
This season I’ve added two new options to my repertoire – this oversized tweed lady jacket in plummy shades of rose, merlot and burgundy (I belted mine for a take on the cinched waist silhouette that’s big this season) and a very cool, dark denim trench with shiny gold hardware and contrast stitching. Be still my jacket loving heart.
Honorable mentions (aka what I’m also eyeing from their site) – this impossibly chic collarless suede jacket, this great little double faced wool jacket in the prettiest cornflower blue and this boxy, olive green brushed wool bomber jacket.
