It's the season of outerwear. Whether it's a day at the office or evening out, we've got the jackets and coats that will take you there. This fall it's all about versatility. From pieces you can wear two ways to coats that are as comfortable as they are chic, outerwear looks so good about now you won't want to take it off.

Quilted

The leather jacket is a must-have, done now in every carnation from colorful to motorcycle. For a look that's chic and goes easily day to night, we love the quilting detail. From Shoe La La ($73).

Out of the wild

Whether it's animal print or fur, the jackets for fall are a call to the wild. Faux fur jacket from Vanessa V. ($138)

Two in one

This camel jacket ($148) from Maven Womenswear gives you two looks for the price of one. The zipper takes it from office-worthy to moto-chic in an instant.

The sophisticate

This streamlined piece ($178) from Brother's combines the two-tone trend along with leather details and a shape that's ageless, timeless and at once right now.

Versatility defined

Rare is it to find a jacket that can work as a dress. This easy shape does the trick. From Vanessa. V. ($148)

Fabulous fur

Ladylike coats rule outerwear, and touches of fur are a must. Vintage demure coat from Sky Blue Clothing ($105).
