With spring’s milder days, outings call for jackets that embody a perfect blend of laid-back comfort and a hint of structure. I’m looking forward to some upcoming events (whether it’s a birthday bash or a brunch with friends) and find it’s always handy to have some outfits in mind that feel effortlessly styled. Today I’m sharing some spring jackets for women that are the perfect outfit “completer.”
Today I want to focus on some go-to jackets that I LOVE. The first word that comes to mind is: lightweight. Light and bright, right? In Spring, the jacket feels more like an accessory than a necessity – just to catch that last of the seasonal chill. Let’s take a look at some of my top picks:
Linen & linen-blend jackets
Banana Republic Arcata Tencel-Linen Shirt
The color of this Banana Republic Jacket is called “Vanilla Custard” and I think it’s just delectably chic. I love this relaxed utility jacket, and the material is made from a beautiful Italian fabric. Portofino this Summer? Yes, please!
Madewell Cropped Blazer in 100% Linen
This cropped blazer from Madewell reminds me of the warmth of Citrine (my favorite stone!) and I love this Spring color. The jacket is 100% linen, and I’m wearing a regular size Small. This statement color is an outfit-maker, but it’s also available in white.
Bella Dahl Utility Crop Linen Jacket
If a feather were a jacket, this could be it! A linen blend utility jacket at its absolute finest. This casual crop has immaculate construction for a material that’s so lightweight. I think this shorter length would look great with floaty spring dresses or full skirts.
Sweater jackets, lady jackets
J.Crew Juliette Collarless Sweater-Blazer
In France, kids call their favorite blankie “Doudou” and I think that’s the best way to describe this J.Crew Sweater-Blazer mix. The blend of cotton and merino wool will have you never taking this off. Indoors or Outdoors. Trust me, even adults need a Doudou! Oh, and it’s marked down by 31% RIGHT NOW!
Chico’s Balloon Sleeve Faux Leather Jacket
Let’s look at a jacket that’s more sophisticated and tailored. I’m obsessed with Chico’s Balloon Sleeve Jacket. The leather may be faux to make it more lightweight, but it’s fauxTASTIC! There’s an option between Regular or Petite sizes and the color is BRIOCHE!? Just modern French and fabulous!
This jacket is like an homage to Jackie Kennedy in her childhood summer house, Lasata (fun fact: the estate was recently bought by Tom Ford!). The versatility of this merino wool cardigan is that one can dress it up, or pair it down. I love throwing it over some modern jeans with gold accessories. Modern, and timeless.
A more refined denim jacket
Frank & Eileen Dublin Tailored Blazer
Frank & Eileen have outdone themselves with this classic white tailored blazer in Performance Denim. It’s the perfect balance of polished and laid-back. They describe the denim as stretch-kissed and Italian. Sounds like a “Spring Fling” if you ask me!
Sporty chic jackets
I have to highlight two NEW jackets that I recently spotted on J.Crew, because they’ are ‘re both good looking and practical…(both are machine washable!)
J.Crew Collection Lightweight Bomber Jacket
This heritage-inspired bomber, with polished gold-crest buttons deserves to be sailed on the high seas! It inspires outfit ideas for a South of France pique-nique à la plage, or a Cape Cod boardwalk. Would you agree?
J.Crew Barn Jacket in Crinkle Nylon
If Navy isn’t your color, you could grab this Toasted Cream utility style jacket, with gold detailing and a corduroy collar. If Spring were a modern jacket, this is it right here!
We love a season where it’s not too hot, and not too cold. This is the perfect time for your lightweight jackets to shine!
