Spring has made an appearance in Massachusetts! Snow is melting away and it is finally time to shed the giant down parka I have been engulfed in all winter. At least for a few days. You know what spring makes me want to do? Shop! Obviously. Just like all of the other seasons do. I’m definitely in need of a lighter jacket for spring. It was nearly sixty degrees when I left work tonight and I drove with the jacket OFF!
Clockwise: Green Military Jacket, Beige Trench, Hot Pink Trench, Pink Sweater/Jacket
My criteria for a spring jacket is that it can go from work week to weekend and screams “Spring!”. These four definitely do that for me. The green is nicely structured and a military style jacket always reminds me of spring. The classic beige trench is beautiful and timeless. But, I think the winner will be one of the two pink options. I like the light pink sweater/coat because it seems like it would be very versatile and also cozy and comfortable. And the hot pink trench is that great mix of traditional with a little wow factor.
And I almost forgot my biggest requirement for a spring coat (or anything else for that matter)… It has to be affordable! All of these are under $60! I can’t lie, though, $60 is too much for me. The two pink jackets are less than $35 which makes them all the more lovely
