Jack Frost is about to kick down the door on us, but at least you can look fly as you freeze your ass off.

Lupe Fiasco in one of the season's most popular pieces - a fitted leather jacket |
See below for a rundown on some of the freshest outerwear this time around:
THE VARSITY JACKET:
Jay College Letterman by 55DSL
Charm Knit Varsity Jacket by Akademiks
Varsity jackets are a hot commodity right now, but these are not your typical college styles. Cool color combos and edgy stitched designs provide a more modern look.
THE DOWN PUFFA:
Chest Striped Snorkel Jacket by Triple F.A.T. Goose
Aika Down Coat by Miss Sixty
Down puffa jackets are available in all shapes, sizes and fabric finishes. Get a glossy one, like the Aika Down Coat by Miss Sixty, or go for a classic look like the Chest Striped Snorkel Jacket by Triple F.A.T. Goose.
THE PARKA:
Denim Parka by True Religion
Metropolis Parka by The North Face
Grown up parkas are where it's at this season. If you invest in a down piece, you can go for a sleek look and still stay very toasty.
MILITARY INSPIRED:
Amado Military Coat by Fornarina
Garrison II Coat by Zoo York
No need to O.D. on looking militant, subtle details like buttons or the shape of the jacket work for this look.
THE PLAID WOOL BIKER JACKET:
Local Plaid Jacket by Scotch & Soda
Plaid Motorcycle Jacket by William Rast
Plaid has been hot for a minute, as well as the rocker look. Get yourself a nice wool jacket like the ones above to keep you warm. The furry collar is a fresh added touch. Leather sleeves are becoming increasingly popular, namely denim and wool jackets such as the Plaid Motorcycle Jacket by William Rast (Justin Timberlake's hit clothing line).
THE LEATHER BOMBER:
Hooded Leather Bomber by MadeMe
Leather Bomber by Scotch & Soda
This season's leather jacket is not the ridiculously over sized joint with rhinestones and embroidery all over it. Cop the more fitted bomber style for a clean updated look.
