The sheer variety of styles, prices, brands, and colors makes choosing a luxury jacket an overwhelming task. The idea is to buy a jacket that will look good, serve its purpose and last for a couple of seasons, at least. BB Dakota jackets are a good choice when it comes to fulfilling these criteria.

The following are some of the tips to help navigate the confusing road of shopping for jackets.

The first thing you should consider is the weather you buy the jacket for. Are you shopping for fall or winter? Or if you live in a cold place, are you shopping for a jacket that will work for a cool summer evening?

Do you live in an area known for ice, rain or sleet? The jacket you need depends on this. Your jacket should be waterproof to work against snow and rain. It should help block fierce winds. It is all right to go for bulk if you have to face extreme weather conditions. Even if not fashionable, it is advisable to go for features that protect from the weather such as elastic on the sleeves. Plenty of brands offer weather appropriate jackets that are stylish too. The faux fur hood puffer jacket from the collection of Juicy Couture jackets makes for a good buy in this category.

BB Dakota jackets, for instance, have a wide variety of jackets to choose from.

The next point to factor in while choosing a branded jacket is the fit. The jacket should neither be uncomfortable across the chest or the back when you move. It should not restrict mobility. It should fasten properly without any of the parts flapping about. It should not be too tight to allow layers of clothing underneath, if necessary. As a woman, you would look for more than functionality in a jacket. You would need something that flatters your figure.
