Let’s talk fall fashion! Depending on where you live, it’s either already jacket weather or it’s coming soon.  I rounded up the best fall jackets for a pear shape, so that you can layer up in style!

I used to dread jacket weather.  With my pear shaped body, I felt like a bulky jacket looked terrible.  In the last few years, I’ve invested in a few fall jackets that I absolutely love.  The great thing about good outwear? It doesn’t really go out of style.  So you can wear your favorite fall jacket for YEARS.

The Best Fall Jackets for a Pear Shape

I own at least one jacket in each of these classic styles (and I live in CALIFORNIA).  So if you live in cooler weather, pretty sure you’ll get a ton of use out of them all!

Shop all Fall Jacket Options:

Animal Print Jacket: I’ve been on the HUNT for a perfect animal print (leopard to be exact) jacket for years, and I finally bit the bullet this fall.  My personal favorite?  Cabi Clothing‘s Josephine Coat (pictured here).  I love the detachable sleeves and it’s the PERFECT length. Another favorite? This leopard bomber jacket.  

Bomber Jacket: Last year I grabbed a bomber jacket expecting that I’d wear it once in awhile, and it became my go to jacket.  From jeans and sneakers to a t shirt dress, I wore it with EVERYTHING. It’s such a great staple item for fall (or winter if it doesn’t get THAT cold where you live) and I can guarantee bomber jackets aren’t going out of style ANYTIME soon.

Jean Jacket: A great jean jacket is a staple in any fall wardrobe.  As the weather cools you can layer it over almost anything.  It will literally never go out of style.

Blazer: A blazer is a total classic right? It’s also the jacket I wear the LEAST.   You’d think as a teacher I would have worn blazers a lot.  But it took awhile to find one I loved.  My recent investment? A great plaid blazer that I can wear with jeans and a tshirt.  Now, that? I love.

Puffer: If you live in cooler weather (basically not California), then a puffer jacket is a winter requirement.  Right? I finally found one I loved for a trip to the snow, and realized that a great puffer jacket is probably a daily necessity for some of you.  These? Puffer jackets that offer warmth and style.

Anorak: In a cooler climate, an anorak jacket is a GREAT layering piece.  Last year, we snagged matching mommy and me anorak jackets during a sale.  They were pricey, but we used them a TON (and I purposefully bought Lydia’s in a larger size so she could grow into it.  I think a great anorak is worth the investment.

Moto Jacket: Last and certainly not least, a great moto jacket.  A moto jacket is my top choice for layering with fall dresses.  A moto jacket is perfect with a sweater dress, t shirt dress or more formal holiday dress.
