As someone who was on the hunt for the perfect leather jacket for years, I can tell you that finding one is no easy feat. But once I took the plunge and invested in a leather biker jacket, it was hard to imagine my wardrobe before I owned one. In fact, it's now a go-to piece that I wear at least three times a week. What I love about leather jackets is that they make any outfit look chicer. I wear mine for just about any occasion, from brunch meetings to dinners with friends. It even protects me from the office's icy air conditioning.

Prior to purchasing my leather jacket, I researched the style that I wanted and found everything from designer versions to affordable high-street options. I ended up hitting the jackpot when I stumbled upon the Bad Leather Jacket from Veda's collaboration with Reformation. Looking for one yourself? There are a ton of options on the market for a range of styles and budgets. From those under $100 to designer pieces from The Row and Saint Laurent, there's a perfect leather jacket out there for everyone.
