Fall Preview: The Varisty Jacket

We all remember wearing our or someone else's varsity jacket ,in high school, filled with patches showing our many accomplishments. This fall, everyone can rock one! Designers from Stella McCartney to Roberto Cavalli, are putting their spin on this popular jacket.
Stella McCartney
Many designer are staying true to the original look,length and shape of the jacket but some are adding additional eye-catching elements. Shown above, Stella McCartney kept the fabric, pockets and buttons the same but made the jacket, dress-like, where it hits the lower part of her leg.
Everyday Women
This jacket is one of the simplest pieces to dress. You don't have to match, just wear what you like. A simple skinny jean, v-neck sweater and sneakers would look great. A gorgeous bootie, scarf and tee would also look great.

These jackets have also been seen on the runway paired with long skirts which look great together. Check out Ciara's look below wearing a white and black varsity jacket, dark denim skinny jeans and black booties. Casual yet very put together.
