Best Barn & Chore Jackets Built for Work & Style
One of my favorite things about fall is outerwear! And nothing says “effortlessly cool” like a barn jacket you can throw on over jeans or a sweater and just go. My sister and her family just recently built a barn, complete with horses and stalls to muck. No, thank you, but I’ll take the jacket! Hey, you don’t have to actually work in the barn, lol. We can just look like we do!
The Barn Jacket is a fantastic lightweight layering piece for fall, and the shorter ruffle sweater keeps the outfit from feeling bulky.
A Quilted Barn Coat is one of those pieces that is a fall classic. It is lightweight but still warm, and the tailored shape keeps it from looking too boxy. The rich color works beautifully for fall; it’s one of those shades that pairs with everything in your closet.
