Leather jackets are must-haves for this fall and the modern way to wear the leather jacket is to pair it with something unexpected, like a lace top or a cocktail dress. Find our favorite leather jackets -- something for every budget and lifestyle -- and get ready for fall fashion.
1. Leather Jacket with Chains
Nordstrom.com
If you ever want to splurge and treat yourself to something luxurious and pricey, the leather jacket is definitely the item to do it with because you'll wear it for years. Take this Haute Hippie chain embellished jacket, for example. It has a luscious nude leather color, but what really sets it apart are the amazing chains (in a nod to Coco Chanel who loved chains, no doubt) that are inset all over the jacket. A truly amazing piece and something you could wear forever.
2. Faux Leather Jacket

Who needs the real thing when faux leather looks this amazing? Save the animals and your pocketbook with this cool faux leather safari jacket by Velvet. It features a foldover collar and cozy, shearlinglike lining to keep you warm. The color is a rich, vintage-looking brown which is a nice change-up from the classic black leather jacket.
3. Leather Blazer

Looking for a sophisticated leather jacket that's poished enough for the office? This blazer-style leather jacket from John Carlisle is perfect to substitute as a jacket for workdays; wear it with jeans and a white tee on the weekends for a casual chic look.

Want to add a little glam to a leather jacket? Start with gray (softer than black) and add a shearling collar (detachable, in case in you want to remove it.) This Gap leather jacket has a slim silhouette and hits at the waist.

Banana Republic
A traditionally styled black leather motorcycle jacket never goes out of style like this leather jacket from Calvin Klein.
