We haven't quite gotten hit with spring weather yet but I keep seeing glimpses of it...birds chirping, blue skies....That type of weather has got me thinking about spring colors & light layers. Today I'm sharing 3 light layer options that aren't a cardigan.
1. Bomber Jacket - I wore this blue bomber jacket a few posts back and I loved it. This jacket style is perfect to add some sporty vibes into your outfit. It's casual, cool & a little unexpected compared to a cardigan.
2. Anorak - Like I'm wearing in today's post, these anorak style jackets are effortless but add some style to a basic jeans & tee outfit. I love throwing on this type of jacket in the spring. It's doesn't have the same 'cozy' vibe that a sweater does but it still keeps me warm for those early spring days.
3. Denim Jacket - I usually reserve my denim jacket for the summertime & toss it over my summer dresses but lately I'm been wearing it over sweaters or long sleeve shirt and love the warm that it provides. Something about a denim jacket says warm weather to me so I love the fact that I've found a way to wear to style my denim jacket now.
Jacket: Sanctuary Clothing | Jeans: American Eagle | Tee: American Eagle | Sneakers: Adidas | Bag: Gucci
Note, I've been styling all of these jacket styles as a layer to my outfit, not as outerwear! It's not quite warm enough for that!!! Of course this doesn't mean that you shouldn't still wear cardigans. I wore a cardigan 3 out of my 5 works day last week, but it's fun to have some alternate layering options as we transition to spring!

Me too! It is still so chilly - where is spring?!
DeleteMichelle, I adore this casual look on you! I will need to wear jackets well into May so I am always looking for new ways to keep it stylish. I love lightweight bombers and field jackets and of course denim, too. I just picked up some cute lightweight over sized blazers from Old Navy this weekend that are also perfect for Spring. Thanks so much for the feature! That was such a fun surprise to see this morning!

You're ahead of us for spring weather because at least you don't have snow on the ground. I love your outfit. That jacket is so cute!
ReplyDeleteThat is true but it is still very cold here!
DeleteIt's a great look, Michelle. I've been thinking about hooking out some lighter jackets too. It's an exciting time of year, I love spring! Hugs, have a great week, x.
ReplyDeleteHere in South Florida it's more like summer than spring and I have to say I love it! It sure beats the weather back home in Chicago :)
