This Just In: Military Jackets Are the Only Layer You Need This Spring
Puffers are too warm, cardigans are too light. But military jackets? Juuuust right.
If you’re like me, transition seasons fill you with anxiety when you’re headed out the door. The forecast says 65 and sunny, but what does that mean for ME? Will I be sweating in fleece pullover? Will I be freezing if I don a t-shirt and infinity scarf? Like fall before it, spring brings with it warm sunshine and chilly breezes, which can be freaking perplexing when it comes to outfit planning.
Enter: The military jacket! Offering just the right amount of warmth thanks to thick (but not too thick) canvas, these coats are truly the perfect layer when the weather isn’t a sure bet. Also great? They’re on-trend and match nearly anything you find in your closet. So, if you’re headed out in leggings and sneakers, throw on a military jacket! Wearing a maxi dress and wedges? Throw on a military jacket! If you don’t own one already, you’re going to wonder how you ever lived without this wardrobe staple.
