Editor Pick: Talbots Denim Barn Jacket

3.3K

Barn jackets are everywhere this fall. They’re easy and practical and can look very chic when the proportions and finishings are just right, which they definitely are in this case.

What:

Crafted from a soft, refined denim with contrasting (but not too contrasting) classic golden yellow top stitching, this work wear-inspired chore jacket features a faux leather collar and chic button flap pockets. It’s also fully lined in cotton and has just a little bit of stretch to make it that much more comfortable.

Who:

In 1947,  entrepreneurial New Englanders Nancy and Rudy Talbot created a clothing catalog with a highly dedicated and passionate following. Soon they moved into a historic house in Hingham, Massachusetts, a quaint and picturesque town on the South Shore outside of Boston, where they painted the front door a welcoming red to signal hospitality.

Today, Talbots creates smile-worthy clothes for women size 0 to 24 and collaborates with everyone from Barbour to Sperry and Swarovski.

Why:

This is just the thing for living out that Martha Stewart fall fantasy we know you have. How do we know? Because we have the same one. Everyone does. And this is the perfect coat for it. And if you’re thinking to yourself “I wish the collar was real leather.” Trust us, you don’t. A real leather collar, unless it was detachable, would make this jacket so much harder (and more expensive) to clean. Not to mention that the jacket itself would be way more expensive. It is definitely better this way.
