Let's play with suede. It is such a chic yet retro fabric that is perfect for outerwear. Suede is sleek and warm which is perfect when you need to bundle up and still look awesome. It is the epitome of 'oh this?' not trying too hard perfection.

Saks Off Fifth, Calvin Klein Faux Suede Jacket, $59

This jacket is currently 56% off. And when has CK ever steered you wrong?

Missguided, Collarless Suede Jacket, $68

I love the copper snap buttons on this jacket. Makes a chic coat a bit sporty.

Mango, Zippered Suede Jacket, $89

How about a beautiful cranberry suede? Perfect for winter to stand out among the black outerwear regular go tos.

Nordstrom, Bernardo Zip Front Suede Jacket, $99

Oh hello classic perfection. Adding you to my cart asap.

As you can see suede is uber-chic with that 70s vibe and careless air. Pick your color, you can't go wrong with this luxe fabric.

Be fabulous today!
