Save this story Save Story Save this story The days are noticeably shorter, and temperatures continue to drop—fall is officially here. That means it’s high time to update your wardrobe for the colder months, starting with fall jackets that balance style and functionality.
Alongside classic wool coats and puffer jackets, this season is shining a spotlight on a heritage style famously worn by Princess Diana in the 1980s.
Diana paired a white blouse with a skirt and a blouson jacket.
Diana debuted the look during her mid-August 1981 honeymoon at Balmoral Castle in Scotland, where the weather already felt distinctly autumnal. The jacket featured a slightly oversized silhouette, a funnel neck, an elasticized waist, and deep patch pockets that lent it an effortless, casual feel, while its neutral beige check kept it timelessly chic. She completed the ensemble with a matching plaid midi skirt, a crisp white blouse, and white ballet flats.

A quick look at current collections confirms that checkered, high-neck blousons are making a major comeback this fall. Pairing them with sleek midi skirts creates a flattering, balanced silhouette—and swapping Diana’s ballet flats for knee-high boots gives the outfit a modern edge.
For an everyday approach, style the jacket with light-wash, straight-leg jeans, a simple knit sweater, and loafers or ankle boots. To dress it up, pair it with tailored trousers and metallic kitten heels, or lean into monochrome elegance with a coordinating midi skirt and classic pumps.
