"Inspired by Paris in the 1960&amp;#x27;s, Rebecca Minkoff&amp;#x27;s pre-fall 2012 collection is full of cool wardrobe essentials any stylin&amp;#x27; gal would love to get her hands on. I was particularly drawn the outerwear (okay, once I zoomed in on every single one of the accessories) which covered all the bases of a transitional wardrobe. Here are 5 fab jackets I spotted in the collection, each one a chic essential to consider adding to your mid-season lineup. A cropped jacket: Waist-skimming jackets are a great way to show off a fab skirt or pair of pants and keep you warm but not sweltering on those 55 degree days. I love this swing-y trench from Rebecca, it&amp;#x27;s sharp yet flirty. A trench: Speaking of trenches, a below-waist, above-knee one deserves a spot in your closet for sure. If you want to stand out from the crowd, look for an updated version with luxe leather details. A leather jacket: Add a cool girl edge to any look in your wardrobe with a classic leather jacket. If black is too tough for you, a buttery soft brown leather bomber works too! A sporty jacket: With athletic-inspired looks dominating the spring 2012 runways, a tech-y, sporty jacket deserves a spot in your wardrobe for sure. Bonus points to Rebecca Minkoff for touching on two other huge trends with this one: quilted fabrics and the color turquoise. A fancy blazer: A blazer that&amp;#x27;s nice enough to wear with a cocktail dress is something you&amp;#x27;ll never regret having on hand. Tux collars, strong shoulders and silky fabrics that hang on you beautifully are anything but standard issue office wear. So dolls, do you have any of these jackets in your wardrobe already? Inspired to pick one up? What do you think of Rebecca Minkoff&amp;#x27;s pre-fall collection? Do tell! Photos: Courtesy of Rebecca Minkoff "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
