5 Fabulous Spring Jackets

5 Fabulous Spring Jackets

It’s May, which means it’s time to lighten up your layers. Here are five fabulous jackets perfect for spring through to summer.

The navy and white print of this Cos jacket looks really fresh, yet the jacquard fabric has enough substance to it that you can wear it on chilly evenings too.

I love to balance spring’s pretty pastels and botanical blooms with something utilitarian. This lightweight khaki jacket is ideal.

The trick to wearing tailoring in summer is to loosen-up your silhouette without becoming sloppy. This fluid duster coat in the softest shade of dove grey is ideal for both work and pleasure.

I wasn’t coveting a sleeveless padded jacket until I saw this version from Maje. I love the shade of raspberry?and the cool brown leather shoulder detailing. The check lining also adds another level of interest.

Denim jackets are very on-trend for spring/summer, especially styles that are generously cut on the shoulders for a slightly sloppy, oversized look. This version from H&M has a bird motif on the back too, for added interest.
