No fall wardrobe is complete without a warm, lightweight jacket, but if your closet falls short, don't worry, because Oprah's got you covered. This year, the reigning queen of shopping hand-selected Softies' DreamPlush Double-Zip Everyday Jacket for her annual Oprah's Favorite Things List, and they've been flying off shelves ever since.
The jacket, originally priced at $135, is certainly worth the splurge, but there's no reason to pay full price. Right now, Amazon is offering the chance to save 50% during Black Friday, dropping the price of this Oprah-approved zip-up to just $68. If you've had your eye on Oprah's favorite jacket, this may very well be the lowest price of the year.
Velvety soft to the touch, the DreamPlush Double-Zip Everyday Jacket is as close as it gets to wearing a cozy throw blanket without compromising on style. "This plush jacket is the softest jacket I have EVER felt!!" wrote one Amazon shopper, who called it a "cozy fall must have!"
The double-zip closure isn't just for show -- it allows you to adjust the top and bottom so you can find the most flattering, comfortable fit no matter how you decide to layer it. The adjustable waist functions similarly; you can give yourself extra room to wear it over thicker layers, or cinch the drawcord to emphasize your silhouette or for styling under a heavier coat.
One Amazon shopper, who described the jacket as "luxurious," wrote, "I wanted this jacket to take on the plane for my trips north from Florida and it is the perfect jacket to provide the warmth and comfort I was searching for." Packable and easy to wash, the DreamPlush Double-Zip Everyday Jacket lives up to its name in that it's ready for any and every outing or adventure.
At first glance, the jacket might seem simple, but what sets it apart from other similar styles is the attention to detail. Brushed gold hardware is elevated and understated, and it catches the light just like your gold jewelry, making your look feel polished and put together.
Available in three colors and sizes ranging from XS to 3X, the DreamPlush Double-Zip Everyday Jacket is easy to style, which is fortunate considering you'll never want to take it off.
"The DreamPlush Zip Jacket is pure comfort," said one reviewer. "The fabric is unbelievably soft, the fit is flattering, and the zipper and pockets make it so functional." Pair it with trousers and a low-profile sneaker for a dressy casual look, or pair it with your favorite athleisure set on your way to the gym or to run errands.
Oprah has a long history of having excellent taste, and the fact that Softies' DreamPlush Double-Zip Everyday Jacket made the cut tells you everything you need to know about just how cuddly, cozy, and warm it actually is. Add one to your cold-weather wardrobe to stay warm all season long, and wear it well into the spring as the weather starts to warm up. From the moment you zip it up, you'll know exactly why Oprah loves it, and we have a feeling you will, too.
