Jacket Required - How to blaze a trail of glory this fall

Sass Jordan, Juno Award winner, Canadian Idol judge, and rocker extraordinaire picks this season’s hottest blazers

By Jen Selk

1st PLACE - SUEDE SENSATION

Live a Little, washable jacket, $329
“I like this one. It’s sort of sporty. It’s great for fall because it’s not too light and not too heavy and you can layer it. It would also go with a lot of stuff. Best of all, it’s a fabulous colour, eggplant purple. Suede, soft … it all equals love.”
Where to get it: Tzatz, 2512 1/2 Yonge St., 416-481-0311

GREY MATTERS

Fabiani Filippi herringbone jacket, $695
“This one would look good with a very tight, long skirt. The pockets are cute.”
Where to get it: Andrew’s, Bayview Village, 2901 Bayview Ave., 416-225-0049

FULL METAL JACKET

Ell Jay metallic pleather blazer, $210
“This is what a stylist would put me in. There’s a coolness to it. It’s different.”
Where to get it: City Smarts, Centrepoint, 6246 Yonge St., 416-733-2383

THE COLOUR PURPLE

Simon Chang jacket, $280
“I like the weight of the fabric and the way it falls, the cut. It’s very feminine.”
Where to get it: The Trend Shoppe, 2900 Steeles Ave. E., 905-881-8140

WORKING GIRL

Iris blazer, beige, $345
“This one is a little conservative, but if I was going to a business meeting, it might work. It fits perfectly.”
Where to get it: Options for Her, 163 Cumberland St., 416-922-2299
