Perfect for a frigid workplace, a chilly movie theater or an evening football game- one of our year round favorite accessories is a chic, light weight jacket. A stylish jacket shows that you took the time to assemble a look instead of digging the same old frumpy sweater or hoody out of the back of your closet. (These things have their place too, but are better left to comfy evenings at home.)

Let's consider your jacket options.

If you are on a tight budget and don't own any jackets, consider a jacket in a basic color such as black, khaki, gray or denim like Tribal's Black Cotton Twill Jacket (to the left). It is fashionable yet basic enough to be worn to work, church, dinner or to the mall. You can layer it with tops that you already own or really punch it up with a colorful tee or tank and some funky jewelry. A classic fitted jacket in cotton twill or a sateen twill is also a great go to item to keep at home or the office. Tribal's black jacket or a similar style will give you the most bang for your buck and will fit seamlessly into your existing wardrobe.

If you already own a variety of solid jackets or you prefer a higher ratio of bling to basic in your clothing, you might consider a patterned jacket like the ones from Ruby Rd. (Ex. shown to the right.) We especially like Ruby Rd. because they offer a great selection of jackets at unbeatable prices as well as coordinating pieces to go with them. Most of their jackets really pop when worn with their coordinating tops, bottoms and skirts, but will also go with items you already own. Even Ruby Rd.'s more basic jackets have fun button and beading details so you always feel special and will stand out from the crowd.

So save that well-loved, well-worn sweater for curling up on the couch and try looking stylish and put together with a fun and affordable jacket from ShopMartins.com!
