Once school has started summer has ended even if officially still the current season. Unless you live where the weather is warm year round you’re probably not shopping for t-shirts and shorts right now. Your focus is on sweaters and jackets, boots and scarves and other fall fashion items.
Is it time to buy that leather biker jacket?
A leather jacket is a good investment. It will last for years and most styles hang around for a while so you won’t likely have to be concerned that the style of your jacket is dated. And even if the style is dated so what? There’s a word for that kind of style. It’s called “vintage”.

If you don’t already, aim to have a collection of good quality jackets in your closet. This is one thing I’ve noticed while looking through outfit photos of the top fashion bloggers. They have a wide selection of jackets. The right jacket, the right shoes, the right bag and the right accessories–this in my observation is the key to looking good. Of course depending on the season you don’t always need a jacket. So the right shoes, bag and accessories are even more important than the right jacket; but certainly in the fall when you will definitely need a jacket, you should keep this point in mind when shopping for jackets. Make sure it’s a good quality. Make sure it’s the right fit. Unless you’re rich and can afford to buy as many colors and styles of jackets that you want, make sure the color and style can work with any outfit for any occasion.
