Co-Ord Biker Boucle Jacket (Topshop, $130)

Last season, I had my eye on no fewer than a half-dozen tweed biker jackets with asymmetric zippers.  I especially adored this platinum-colored Markus Lupfer number.  It would have been mine had it not cost a week’s salary.  That’s why I am so grateful to see this trend trickling down into the lower price points.

From the mint color to the rocker-chic details, this jacket is pitch perfect.  And while the boucle fabric is perfect for chillier weather, its pastel color makes it suitable for an air-conditioned summer office as well.  Check back at 1:00PM for Two Ways to wear this piece.
