Since we’ve all started social distancing and spending our time at home, this period of self isolation has proven that there are two type of people: those who hoard toilet paper and flour, and those who have taken up the hobby of online shopping.
Luckily for the latter, Nordstrom’s Spring Sale is still in full effect with more great products being added daily. The sale, which includes some of the department store’s best sellers, is a great way to combat the self-isolation blues, treat yourself and distract your mind. One thing is certain, once we all can get outside, our closets will be stocked with great outfits to make our debut in.
Part of every capsule wardrobe and an outerwear staple, a good faux leather jacket is a timeless way to make any outfit look chic. While it can be hard to find the leather jacket of your dreams, this Blank NYC moto jacket is widely loved — and it’s called the Life Changer for good reason.
What is it?
Tthe Blank NYC Life Changer Moto Jacket literally promises to change your life. While that might not be exactly true, it definitely can give any outfit an extra edge – no matter how much or how little thought goes into it. Featuring a rugged zipper detail, this moto-inspired outwear is edgy and cool. While it can be difficult to find a leather jacket without silver hardware, this Blank NYC option features rose-gold zippers, a detail loved by many customers.
Made from soft, faux leather, this jacket has a notched collar, asymmetrical front-zip closure and front zip pockets. Plus, it’s fully lined, which means can also be worn on cooler evenings as a transitional piece. Easy to pair with your favourite high-waist denim, plain tee and sneakers, or a midi dress, moto jackets are a great accessory that keeps you warm while looking cool.

What people are saying
With almost 1,000 reviews, Nordstrom customers love this closet staple due to its stylish look, versatility and affordable price.
“This is my third leather jacket that I have ordered to try on. This is it. I’m naturally a pear shape. The other ones I tried on made me look boxy and wide and hit at my waist weird. This one has a nice formed shoulder for my narrow shoulders and it slims my waist so I don’t look too wide. I’m 5’6”, 134 lbs and I ordered a small. Fits perfect,” says one shopper. “I can dress it up or dress it down.”
“This jacket is five stars. The leather looks real, not cheap at all. The hardware is a nice finish. If we're ever allowed to leave our houses again, I'll wear it everywhere and with everything: T-shirt and jeans for brunch, or dress it up with pants and a cami for a date night,” adds another.
While most reviews agree the jacket is perfect for anyone looking to purchase a flattering, faux-leather moto jacket, some customers recommend sizing up if you plan to layer your outfits.
“This fits so well and is incredibly flattering! I did size up just in case I want to layer or move around without feeling constricted. To give a point of reference, I usually wear a large in North Face, Patagonia, Under Armour and Nike. I sized up to XL and I am glad I did!” reads one review.
“The jacket is very stylish and a fun addition to any outfit. Sizing is on the small side. I am size 4/6 and purchased a medium – it is tight across the back,” adds another.
The verdict
A stylish, moto-inspired jacket is a great staple for any wardrobe whether you primarily wear dresses and heels, or jeans and sneakers. The Blank NYC Life Changer Moto Jacket is highly recommended according to Nordstrom customers – and currently at 40 per cent off, it’s worth adding to your cart so you can make a statement once quarantine is over. Just make sure to size up if you’re planning on layering up for spring!
