When practicality and style meet in one single piece, everything seems right with the world. That was the case with fashion's sneaker obsession [1], its fixation with denim [2], and its love of walkable block heels [3]. Now, it comes in the form of the coolest transitional jacket: a fresh silk bomber that we've seen touch down all over Fashion Month. With bold and beautiful Asian-inspired art or floral embroidery, these pieces feel extra special, like something unearthed at your favorite vintage store. Even better, they provide a perfect layer to slip under your Winter coat and will make a statement-worthy Spring jacket once the weather warms. Plus, you need little else to make your whole outfit. In fact, all you need to do is add it to the jeans and sneakers already in your closet. Just read on to see how the street style set [4] is wearing them, then shop your own.
