These fall transition jackets are perfect for the changing seasons

It’s getting cold, but not cold cold

Now that back-to-school season is in full swing and we're all busy shopping for our Halloween decor, you might have noticed that it's starting to get a little chilly outside sometimes. No, it's not winter yet — or even full-blown fall. Which is to say, it's not cold cold. But nighttime and breezy days have a little bit of a chilly bite to them, which makes this the perfect time for a fall transition jacket.

fall transition jacket is a lightweight sweater, pullover or cardigan that gives you just a little bit of an extra layer to guard against that slight chill this time of year. It's not a real coat or jacket, but it's a little more than a scarf or wrap. It's perfect for layering, which is what you need to do during this transitional part of the year when the weather can easily go from full summer to full autumn (and back) within the same day (sometimes more than once). Oh, and as an added bonus, so many of these fall transition jackets are super cute.
