What: Our favorite styles for fall jackets, just in time for the cool weather to settle in . . .

The Lowdown: Baby it’s cold outside…but not quite cold enough to pull out the parkas and ski pants. That’s why we’re looking at some of our favorite fall jackets – fun, versatile styles that’ll be warm on your kids and easy on your wallets.

The Double-Breasted Peacoat from Old Navy ($18) is cute enough for your little pumpkin. In pink or khaki, it goes with almost any outfit, and it’s warm enough to stand up to brisk autumn days. The floral trim inside gives it a little extra feminine touch.

L.L. Bean’s Adirondack Barn Coat ($39.50) works for either boys or girls. It comes in blue, khaki, olive green, and pink, and it’s a great all-around jacket – durable enough for pumpkin picking, stylish enough for dress-up.

Your preppy girl will love the Cherokee Swing Jacket from Target ($16.99). It works well with a dress or to dress up her favorite pair of jeans.

The Sherpa-Lined Denim Jacket from the Children’s Place ($24.50) is perfect for any little boy. It screams rough-and-tumble for a hard day at play, but looks just as cute paired with khakis.
