In a burgundy and navy palette, the jungle call of leopard print softens. The high-collar shape, finished with a concealed zipper closure, creates clean lines that make this a smart multi-purpose choice. It’s as easy to toss it over a day dress when you’re off to work as it is with jeans on the weekend. Loft, $168

The classic moto jacket has been tinkered with – and the result doesn’t disappoint. This season, it’s all about a longer, boxy shape, which is perfect for accommodating the season’s cozy knits. For maximum visual interest, look for styles that merge textures (like this faux shearling and vegan leather combo) with a handful of pockets and buckled straps. John & Jenn, $275 at Hudson’s Bay
