Favorite Spring Jackets (Trendy Wednesday #160)
Even though last week was the official first day of Spring, we’ve had a few days of COLD weather. We had a few days of temps in the 50’s, so it felt more like Winter than Spring. But, yesterday it warmed up to the 60’s, so it seemed more like Spring. When it’s Spring, but the weather is still chilly, it’s good to grab a lightweight jacket before you head out the door. You want to stay warm, but be dressed for Spring as well.
My most favorite jackets to wear in the Spring are my Madewell utility jacket and my Madewell denim jacket. Can you tell I like Madewell?
I’ve really enjoyed wearing my Fleet Utility Jacket this Spring. I bought it last Fall and love it. It’s lightweight and provides just enough warmth. I also found this Caslon Utility Jacket that comes in “olive sarma” or grey ebony”. I love Caslon brand clothes and am sure this utility jacket will be popular! This Modern Utility Jacket is less expensive and is from Everlane, an ethical and transparent brand. If you are on a budget and need a good utility jacket, this Twill Field Jacket comes in a lovely shade of green, plus several other colors. I received a couple of emails asking about a longer length utility jacket and I found one under $35, from Universal Thread!
Both a utility jacket and a denim jacket are items included in The Essential Capsule Wardrobe: Spring 2018 Collection eBook!

My other favorite jacket to wear in the Spring is my Madewell Denim Jacket in “pinter wash”. I love the color, which is a medium denim tone. What I like about a medium wash denim jacket is that it looks great with anything I wear it with. Sometimes it’s kind of tricky wearing a dark wash or a light wash jacket. As with any outfit, when you layer, you want your clothes to contrast with each other, so if you are wearing a dark wash jacket with a black or navy top, sometimes the colors blend together, then if you are wearing dark jeans or pants, you outfit looks too bland. Or, vice versa with a light wash jacket, your whole outfit may look too light. Another investment denim jacket is this J. Crew Classic Denim Jacket. Here’s one from Vince Camuto, a quality brand, that is under $100 that comes in regular and petite sizes. This budget-friendly denim jacket is under $32 and I love the color of the denim! This classic look denim jacket is available in Plus-Size!
Here’s my budget-friendly Old Navy denim jacket I wore in an outfit post:

Love that jacket!
I love the colour of the utility jacket. I am on the hunt for one in a pink or blush, that is relatively low cost.
Love how you styled it
i like the classic look for both of your jackets, but love the trendy feel of the utility jacket (see what I did there. ;)). I’m stuck on utility jackets. Also love the blush jacket you featured!! 🙂
