We all have a favorite type of jacket. Whether it's a puffer, hoodie, or cropped blazer, there's likely a style out there that you prefer over another. But if you're like us, you always look for a chic update of your go-to piece.
Luckily, we figured out one fabric that always looks chic and winter-ready. Yes, we're talking about velvet. This soft and shiny fabric instantly makes anything you're wearing more luxe and holiday-ready, but it's also the perfect piece to top over practically any look during the cold winter months. Whether you're wearing a velvet jacket over a dress or with a button-down top and jeans, it promises to earn instant compliments. Trust us—your favorite jacket will look 10 times better when made out of velvet.
If you're looking to switch up your jacket game but still want one within the comfort of your usual style, we highly suggest you consider these 15 jacket styles that look way better in velvet. Beware: It's hard to just pick one.
