I have been wearing and loving my new quilted, dramatic-collared jacket from Loeffler Randall. The perfect amount of whimsy. For those who have asked: I find this jacket runs big (I took an XXS, and it’s still roomy; I’m typically an XS). If you like the look but want something a little less expensive, try this Anthro in a fun gingham or this $39 Amazon steal.

A few other great coats and jackets for the transition to spring:
+Barn jackets remain a perfect pick for this in-between season. Gap has a great $118 option; it reminds me a lot of Doen’s chic $400 version. But there are some fun statement barn jackets out on the market — I’ve been swooning over this embellished Veronica Beard and I thought this laminated linen style from J. Crew was head-turning, too. And the Erdem x Barbour collab is nearly sold out, but had such fun styles — love this peplum. J. Crew has a fun colorblocked Barbour available that’s also worth a gander, and this cinch-waist style is flattering.
+My ideal rain jacket for April showers. If you’re looking for something cropped, this Everlane style is super chic, too.
+For denim jackets, I’m noticing options that are belted or nipped at the waist. Love this Everlane and this Ulla Johnson.
+A trench is always a good idea. I’ve been getting a lot of wear out of my Mango, but am also drawn to the unbelted option from Sezane. I like how the European and Scandi women style them with straw basket bags in the spring. Inspo below. I also love when chic peas wrap a sweater around their trench shoulders — more inspo below!

P.S. Just updated my Shopbop hearts.
Oooo, can I add my new fave? Just got the Alex Mill Britt jacket in the butter yellow color— it’s now my entire personality.
