We've curated a list of our favorite seasonal toppers to add warmth — and style — as we layer up for Fall's cooler temps. This season, we're looking to polished tweeds, statement reds, and lots of leather. As for basics, our tried and true anoraks aren't going anywhere; they're just getting fortified with shearling and fur trim to keep us cozy. Whether you're in the market for something dressy, everyday layering pieces, or a statement jacket, we promise there's something here for every girl and every budget. Read our shopping tips below, before clicking through our 20 favorite Fall jackets.

• Invest in a leather jacket or a jacket with leather details on the sleeves or lapels. This is the season's most versatile look — it goes anywhere and adds a luxe, edgy finish to everything you put on.
• Have fun with textures, like a great boucle tweed or velvet blazer that you can dress up at work or down with denim on the weekends.
• Take a risk with a new silhouette. The cape jacket is this season's most sophisticated way to layer up.

Changing up your top may be the easiest way to ready a day look for night or amp up the impact of your casual weekend attire. This season, we're big on dramatic options — even if it's just a hint of leather or a playful bit of leopard print that sets our top apart from the rest. With our favorite Fall trends in mind, we scoured the market for this season's best toppers that touch on all this season's trends from leopard to polka dots, fits that flatter all body types, and prices that work for every budget. Before you click through for our 20 favorites, keep these key tips in mind:

When we say one-piece wonder, we mean it. A bodysuit slims, defines your curves, and never adds bulk under your hip-hugging denim, skirts, or trousers. The bodysuit had a major moment in the '90s, but we're newly obsessed with the undergarment-cum-wardrobe staple — and you will be, too. In understated silhouettes, or dressed up with underwire, lace, and cutouts, a bodysuit should be worn just like any other top; its benefit comes when you want a sleek, smooth silhouette without bunching, gathering, or slouchiness. The only thing to remember is that you want a bodysuit with a snap crotch — form and function should work together here! If you've ever feared the one-piece, here's a way to conquer those fears: we styled chic, wearable looks for five different occasions. Click to see.

>> Claudia Schiffer's new knit collection — designed with German cashmere specialist Iris von Arnim — made its retail debut at Colette during Paris couture week, and it's hitting 50 doors worldwide shortly — including Net-a-Porter later this month. Camilla Akrans captured Schiffer herself modeling the tube dresses, chunky cardigans, and cableknit sweaters (which range from about $400 to $1,600) for the collection's lookbook, and the new designer says of her offering: "I wanted to make easy pieces that are practical yet chic . . . It’s been a huge learning curve, but it’s something I have wanted to do for a long time."
