The time between winter and spring can be tricky to dress for. Some days will have you reaching for your favorite spring dresses and sandals, while others will force you back into puffer territory. Luckily, Priyanka Chopra's leather jacket is perfect for transitional weather. The best news? It’s in stock at one of your favorite affordable retailers.

Chopra is known for typically including affordable pieces in her street-style looks in an elevated and put-together way. Her looks are inspiration-worthy without breaking the bank, which means recreating her style is all the more attainable. March 19 was no different, when Chopra stepped out in New York City in a low-key, yet totally polished, look.

Layering is key when it comes to transitional-season styling — which Chopra knows well. The actor opted for a sleek leather jacket from Aritzia, the Canadian-based brand that even Meghan Markle loves. As opposed to a traditional, biker-style leather jacket, Priyanka's button-down version is a bit sleeker, thanks to its relaxed collar, lightweight fabric, and inconspicuous hardware.

Paired with a simple black top, light-wash jeans, black boots, and a thin belt, Chopra's look was the perfect mix of trendy and classic. The actor rounded out her getup with loose waves and a bright-berry lip.

Leather jackets have always been a closet staple, but this season they've made a comeback in a variety of different colors and styles (think: bright reds and rich jewel tones in bomber, oversized, and cropped varieties). You can either stick to a classic color and silhouette like Chopra, or take a risk with a bolder option in a punchier color.

White or tan options are also great alternatives to black in the summertime, since they keep you warm without looking too heavy against dresses and shorts. Not looking for real leather? There's a wide variety of faux-leather jackets on the market right now, too.

Perfect for either night or day looks, leather jackets will remain cool season after season. Shop Chopra's exact piece and others like it, below.
