Jacket for London in mid-Sept.

[jellyv]

Especially you London gals, help me zero in on my jacket piece for mid to late Sept in London, to function like a top layer/blazer. Rest of outfit will be dressy casual pants and tops, nice sneakers.

Which one of these?

lightweight, fitted lambskin leather moto jacket (black)
Eileen Fisher 3/4 sleeve heavy cotton knit (indigo)
jean jacket

I hope everyone says the leather jacket, but not totally sure weather/season wise.

Thoughts?

The leather jacket sounds good temperature-wise, but would you mind if it gets rained on?

Thanks for commenting. Forecast is looking mostly dry so far, plus I will have access to an umbrella. (I may add a thin rain jacket, though I’d rather not.)

I would take the thin packable rain coat. I like the idea of the leather jacket.

The most versatile option, I can see that. Thanks!

I think something waterproof would be a good idea. It’s been unusually hot and dry all summer, but in the last week or so it’s suddenly feeling a lot cooler, and definitely autumnal. The only predictable thing about the weather in the uk is it’s unpredictability - no doubt that’s why we talk about it so much. Have fun!

Thank you.
So right about unpredictability, and since the rain jacket is minimal in weight I'll just pack it.

Am I too late to the party? Are you in London already? Still ridiculously warm actually, but a packable trench is a wise choice for traveling. You may want to use this trip as a shopping opportunity, and stop by aquascutum for their version of a trench that you can pack in its own pocket. I love mine -looking for a photo...

Haha! Looking forward to that photo!

Thanks for chiming in. Yes ma’am, I’m in London and shopping is already in progress. [emoji39]

Leather jacket has been working out very well for daytime and evenings alike. Great weather so far! [emoji106][emoji254]
