STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Craving Coats

As the snow keeps falling and the ground remains icy, many of us forget that spring’s arrival is upon us. Slowly but surely, the warmer spring weather is approaching, leaving many of us to question, “What jacket should I wear for transition between winter and spring?” A puffy down coat will leave us feeling too warm, whereas wearing no coat would definitely be a goose bump trigger. Aside from the spring weather dilemma, we all get tired of wearing the same old boring jacket, and we are constantly looking to shake our wardrobe up a bit—especially in the outerwear department.

Thanks to this Fashionista, our questions have been answered. Her jacket offers the perfect solution for what to wear during the transition period between winter and spring. It is a perfect addition to your coat collection as well.

Keeping it sweet and simple, our Fashionista sported a hooded grey synced jacket, accompanied by large buttons, functional pockets and drawstrings. Pairing it with dark washed jeans and L.L.Bean Boots, she keeps warm while looking trendy. The great thing about this jacket is that it is a perfect piece to layer with. Wear it over your favorite thermal and a scarf for a cozy look. On warmer days, keep it unbuttoned over a simple tee or loose tank top. Pair it with layered necklaces for a dressier look!
