Why we love it: This is a fabulous piece for long fall days -- heavy enough to actually keep you warm but not exactly a winter coat. Traditional peacoat shape in a short sleeved alternative; made of machine-washable cotton for ease. Available in black and charcoal gray.

Wear it with: Layer over a tank or tee or a flowing feminine blouse or camisole. When the weather turns, wear over a simple long sleeved tee or a button down blouse. Pair with an A-line skirt for the office or jeans for the weekend.

Gap short sleeved pea coat jacket, $78.00.
