• Fall is here, and the fickle weather can make it difficult to get dressed.
• The answer? Lightweight jackets that you can layer on top of everything.

It's hard to believe that fall is already here. Without the usual events that mark the start and end of each season, this year has felt like one long month. Regardless of how the pandemic has changed our perception of time, the seasons don't stop for anything. That means, for most of us, we can expect colder temperatures very soon. Even if you plan on spending most of the fall indoors, you'll need a good lightweight jacket for when you do have outdoor activities.

We rounded up 7 lightweight jackets that check off all the boxes. Whether you're looking for a practical rain jacket, a coat that's purely for style, or a mix of the two, we've got you covered with options that meet your needs and fit your budget.
