Yes, there is a difference in the chasuble of a priest, primarily in terms of color, style, and symbolism, which vary according to the liturgical season or specific occasions. For example, during Advent and Lent, priests typically wear purple chasubles, while white is used for celebrations like Christmas and Easter. Additionally, the design and embroidery on the chasuble can reflect particular themes or saints, further distinguishing them. These variations serve to enhance the liturgical experience and convey spiritual meaning.

Investiture with stole and chasuble refers to a ceremonial act in which a priest or deacon is formally attired with specific vestments for liturgical services. The stole, a long, narrow strip of cloth, symbolizes the authority of the clergy, while the chasuble is the outer garment worn over the stole, representing the priest's role during the Eucharist. This ritual often takes place during ordination or special liturgical occasions, emphasizing the sacred responsibilities undertaken by the clergy.
The stole represents a priest's authority. The Chasuble represents love. The stole is worn under the Chasuble because authority is always at the service of love, not the other way around. As an aside, I would be remiss if I did not draw attention to the fact that "overlay" stoles (stoles worn over the chasuble) tends to be favorite of progressive clergy. Little to they know what they are implicitly saying by doing that: "Love at the service of authority." Ironically progressive clergy are the ones who love to minimize priestly authority, yet their Liturgical action suggests otherwise!
If you mean the liturgical vestment worn around the shoulders of priests as they administer the sacraments it is called a 'stole'.
