Leather jackets are a fashion staple. In tv shows, it’s always the cool chick in school that dons the black leather jacket to show the world she’s sassy and confident (I’m trying to be vague here but my mind is on Peyton Sawyer from One Tree Hill – she always looks so chic with that leather jacket on. Don’t judge me.) I decided that my wardrobe was sadly missing a classic leather jacket and while they usually wear quite a hefty price tag, I figured with the holidays and my birthday in December, it was a good time to shop around.  Luckily, I had a super sleuth of a secret Santa this year who stalked my Pinterest boards (score!) and bought me the Topshop jacket I’d been swooning over — it even has a faux fur collar!  Most of the real leather jackets I found were $400 and way more but while holiday sales abound, I’ve seen some nice ones like this for around $300 or less.  Here are a few of the fabulous affordable options I found, all for under $120:

1. Topshop ‘Maddox’ Faux Leather Jacket – Nordstrom $118  | 2. Black Seam Detail Biker Jacket – Miss Selfridge $91  |  3. Leather Look Quilted Biker Jacket – Asos $87.95  |  4. Distressed Faux Leather Moto Jacket – Forever 21 $32.80  |  5. Leather Jacket by RubyLeather – Etsy $99
