This time last year the jackets were badass during NYFW.  From sharp shouldered Balenciaga motos in two tone or floral prints to oversized fur hoodies, Jordana’s massive collared jacket and Hannelli’s blue suede ACNE jacket under a grey jacket.  It was allllll eye candy.

My fave?  The vintage biker jacket in the first photo.

Get inspired + pick one that’s you:

Pic 1:
The always perfect vintage biker jacket.  Just as cool:  this, this or this one.

Pic 2:
Hide under cozy fur trim jackets.  Similar without the hood

Pic 3:
The quilted biker jacket.  Good versions:  All Saints + Topshop.

Pic 4:
Cropped Chanel-esq.    This beaded or this (on sale) both by Topshop. Alice & Olivia’s grey version = perfect with a white tee and the oldest jeans.

Pic 5:
Model Jordana in a multi strap oversized collar number.  Try a UNIF bomber.

Pic 6:
I agree, florals are round.  Similar looks:  Topshop, Free People – hang on is this the same one on sale? Add plain skinnies, mini skirts or floor sweeping maxi’s.

Pic 7:
Cobalt blue + grey = perfect colour combo.  How to do it: This blue jacket + this grey shearling in a bigger size (on sale).

ps.  I am obsessed over the kick ass military number in the background of pic 6  ♥ ♥ ♥

pps. I have a vintage jacket like pic 1 on sale here.
