Netflix's Virgin River is back for season seven, and with it comes plenty of drama (per usual), along with some seriously mood board-worthy fashion from everyone's favorite nurse practitioner, Mel Monroe (played by Alexandra Breckenridge). And while you may not be able to book a trip to the exact California town (sorry, it doesn't actually exist), you can pick up a few of the character's exact pieces—including the gorgeous suede jacket she dons this season.

When it comes to style, Mel excels at balancing practical and outdoorsy with cute and trendy—after all, she is originally from Los Angeles. And you can definitely see some of that cool-girl Angeleno shining through in her Ba&sh suede jacket, which is remarkably still in stock in every size.

The perfect pick for transitional spring temps, the piece has a cropped, boxy cut and three-quarter sleeves, with the most adorable rounded collar. I'm also a fan of the feminine, swingy fit, aided by the gathered back yoke that gives the layer some subtle volume. Add to it the fact that it's crafted from what one buyer calls "luscious suede," and yeah, it makes sense that it's priced at a cool $595.

As a huge fan of suede outerwear myself, I'd consider this on-screen pick an investment worth making. After all, nothing is more versatile than a good suede jacket; you can style it with floral maxi dresses à la Mel, skinny jeans and boots for an equestrian vibe or tan trousers and a button-up for work.

But if your budget is a little tighter than this fictional character's, don't sweat it. You can get the look for less with these similar pieces (like this massively marked-down number at QVC) below.
