For some people, every time autumn rolls around, the thought of purchasing a new cool-weather jacket is a hassle. Year after year, trends change and it seems impossible to find a down jacket that will remain fashionable for a while. With quilted jackets, this is no longer a problem. Quilted jackets, whether designer or discount, are great ways of staying warm in frosty temperatures and looking en vogue as well.

For those who seek quilted jackets and also appreciate the quality and reputation of famous brand names, designer quilted jackets are plentiful. Fashion houses such as Burberry, Dooney and Bourke and Barbour all manufacture chic quilted jackets, albeit a bit on the pricier side. But if ready and willing to shell out between $500 and $1000 in the name of fall and winter fashion, there are a variety of designer quilted jackets from which to choose.

Burberry, a United Kingdom-based manufacturer and one of the most recognizable names in fashion, has a number of trendy outerwear quilted jackets. For about $850, a women's short black quilted jacket can be purchased online. Its clean lines and neutral color can complement nearly any cool weather wardrobe. For even less money, at $695, Burberry quilted jackets that double as trench coats are readily available. These knee-length quilted jackets not only keep the wearer warm, but proudly assert the Burberry history associated with the trench coat. Both quilted jackets can be found at the official Burberry website. However, for those looking for serious savings, checking out other online retailers of designer quilted jackets may be the way to go. At the Tech Traders website, Burberry quilted jackets can be found for as low as $89. At such a discounted price, be prepared for certain sizes or colors to be out of stock.

Dooney and Bourke is another popular designer of quilted jackets. At the Dooney and Bourke website, there are fine quilted jackets for both women and men. The fitted women's version, which comes in pink, lilac, light blue and white, is only $275; a sharp contrast to the prices of Burberry quilted jackets. At a flattering length just below the hip, almost any woman can find a size to complement her shape. There are also thicker quilted jackets made by Dooney and Bourke. For women, the plumper jacket with It lining, at $295, can last several winters and appears classic. At the same price, men can purchase similar quilted jackets in navy, red or green.

Barbour, another company based in the U.K., offers classy quilted jackets for men and women as well. Debonair leather quilted jackets for men can be found directly on the Barbour website. However, to save a little money, Barbour quilted jackets can be found at several other online retailers. At the Sierra Trading Post website, women can purchase a cozy and modish Barbour jacket for $59.95. Men can find Barbour quilted jackets for as low as $49.95 at the same website also.

If quilted jackets are appealing, but the prices of designer quilted jackets are not, check out websites that provide apparel at discounted rates. A good one to try is Overstock. Here, women's microfiber quilted jackets in pretty hues such as apple and fuchsia are only $35.99. There are even more quilted jackets to choose from at Amazon's site. Women, men and children can find quilted jackets here. Although they are not necessarily designer made, familiar brands such as Mossimo, Dickies and Reebok can be found.

Finding a down jacket is even easier than finding quilted jackets, but both a down jacket that is quilted is also available through many outlets. The Back Country website sells more than one down jacket from the North Face brand. Many of these, such as the women's Metropolis Parka or the men's Flash Jacket, are also quilted jackets.

Whether the weather requires a heavy down jacket or the onset of fall's latest outerwear calls for quilted jackets for the whole family, it is easy to find something for anyone's cold weather needs. If only all clothing could be both functional and fashionable - shopping for every season would be this much fun!
