Dare we say it? Has spring finally sprung? After what felt like the longest winter on record thanks to miserable weather, the third lockdown in 12 months and a cancelled Christmas, daffodils and tulips are blooming, the sun is shining and longer days are stretching out before us.
Our puffer coat has been our wardrobe’s hardest working piece this winter, seeing us through socially distanced dates, government-sanctioned walks and hourlong Sainsbury’s queues but it’s time to shake off the heavy-duty outerwear and embrace something more suitable for spring.
Whether you reach for a trusty denim jacket, a colour-block button-up or a classic trench, there’s a jacket for everyone this season. Click through to find our favourite pieces for sunnier days.
Trench Coat
Whether you opt for traditional camel or more minimalist black, the trench coat comes out every spring and autumn for good reason. The perennial classic – smart or casual depending on your fit of choice – is the perfect transitional jacket over everything from smart trousers to midi dresses.
