You NEED a Biker Jacket: Shop My Picks Under $100 #OutfitsInOctober

I LOVE THE BIKER JACKET. As a matter of fact, I already own like five of them and can justify my current thirst for a brown suede one. Not every biker jacket is created equal (and this is how I justify owning so many): some have notch collars, some have double breasted collars, some have epaulets, some are cropped, some are long, some are belted, some are fitted, some are more “boyfriend” fitting, some are black, some are chocolate brown—I mean, you get it, right?!?! I can’t even travel to another country without looking to see what kind of biker jacket I might be able to find. Last year I went on a press trip to Düsseldorf and came home with TWO new biker jackets from stores we have here in the U.S….lol. Hey, they were on sale there so they wound up being a lot cheaper than what they were going for at the time here. So I was being smart. Ha!

The reason I’m able to own so many moto jackets is because I don’t spend a ton of money on them. They last, too! I have one from H&M that I bought maybe five years ago and it’s still kicking—in fact it looks even better now because it’s been worn in. I always look for a biker jacket that looks “rich” which means I had to skip out on the ones Who What Wear did for Target in their initial launch back in the spring—they looked SO good in the lookbook but looked like trash bags in person. SMH.

Some of my favorite places to check for biker jackets include H&M, Mango, Zara, and ASOS. I’ve also found some really cool ones on eBay and of course don’t rule out thrifting.

LOVE the epaulets, double-breasted collar, and length on this one. It’s $59.99 NOW $34.99—I just ordered it from here.

Now the reason why you need a biker jacket in your closet is because they can make almost any outfit that much cooler. A skater dress? Yup. A basic tee and jeans? Yup. A pencil skirt and tank? Yup. A crop top and high waist trouser? Yup. They’re like the Olivia Pope of your closet, yo. HANDLED.
