The Best Spring Jackets

| ,

I’ve always been someone who likes to invest in a “coat wardrobe” because it’s one of the easiest ways to instantly look pulled together with minimal effort. Keep the base outfit simple with a tee and jeans so you can let your jacket be the focal point. There are some really gorgeous spring jackets out there right now so I thought I would round up my favorite styles in today’s post.

Spring Jackets I’m Loving

Farm Rio Sea Garden Scarf Soft Jacket

Farm Rio is one of my favorite brands to go to for unique and gorgeous prints. I love the mixing of prints on this one with the floral panels edged with the sharp diagonal stripes.

Sezane Dakoty Jacket

This patch jacket is very boho and whimsical which is perfect for someone who loves lightweight fabrics and dainty details.

Maeve Retro Floral Cropped Trench

Nothing screams spring more than a pink floral trench. If wearing something like this seems daunting, the easiest way to style it is with a simple base. Perhaps a white tee and jeans? Or even a silky cream blouse with black trousers which will create a nice contrast and tone down the overly feminine print.

Avec Les Filles Short Trench Coat

This is exactly the type of coat I would wear when I used to work on office job. I LOVE a belted jacket and a leather belt makes this even more chic. You could even wear this as a blazer with a crewneck cashmere sweater underneath, wide leg trousers and pointy toe pumps.

Boden Embroidered Utility Jacket

I love all the colorful details on such a utilitarian jacket.

RAILS Lucien Jacket

If a simple trench bores you to tears but you want something chic enough to wear to the office, this is the jacket to buy. The tie waist gives it shape while the plaid collar and cuffs gives the jacket some character.

SEA NY Karmen Jacket

Totally quirky but there is something about this SEA NY jacket that I LOVE! Even though it’s quite bold, this isn’t necessarily a very trendy piece. The shape of the jacket is classic while the print makes it unique and special. It is a jacket that you can pull out in 10 years and everyone will stop you about it.

Barbour Bleached Olive Icons Cropped Jacket

The overall look of this coat is quintessential Barbour but it’s the contrast of the pink collar that really make me stop scrolling. I’m not typically a pastel person but that pink combined with olive green is perfection.

Tuckernuck Reversible Quilted Townsend Jacket

Honestly, you need to see this jacket on the Tuckernuck site because it shows the interior of the jacket which really made me pick it for this roundup. The striped side is very simple but the other floral side is so gorgeous! I would personally cuff the sleeves each time to show the contrast of the other side.

Boden Lightweight Rain Coat

Years ago raincoats were so boring and tragic yet served a useful purpose. Thank goodness we have moved past the boring stage and brands are embracing creating rain coats that are more enjoyable to wear. While the color blocking makes this stand out from other raincoats, the neutral colors will allow for easily styling in your closet.

Apiece Apart Long Selva Jacket

The draping of this utility jacket is absolutely gorgeous. Often I gravitate towards a stiffer jacket shape but this fit looks so polished and chic in an effortless way. Imagine this worn with all white underneath and some fabulous statement earrings!

Farm Rio Dark Blue Embroidered Pockets Jacket

Another Farm Rio discovery that is a bit more a subtle pattern/print but still quite impactful. Because the base of the coat is dark, this would easily work throughout fall/winter as well as early spring.

Outfits I Wore in September/October 2025

Outfit details: Dress | Boots | Bag (similar) | Sunglasses

1. I love buying lightweight jackets for spring – especially printed ones as they can become the entire outfit. Style with a simple tee and jeans for an easy look you can pull together with little to no effort. I saw this reversible quilted jacket and love the stripes/floral combo!!

2. I’m still actively seeking out smaller designers and brands rather than only showcasing large retailers. I came across this small brand and ordered this lightweight jacket which will be on repeat all spring and summer.

3. This jacket is a splurge but the draping and styling of it is 10/10!! What a gorgeous piece!

4. The reviews I’ve seen on this new soft blur brightening concealer have all been amazing. And because I am easily influenced, I had to add it to my cart.

5. I will be publishing my book review blog post next week but I cannot wait to rave about this book I just finished!! So different than anything I’ve read recently and such a wild story.

6. I wash my hair 3x/week so I needed a heat protectant that I could use on dry hair when I wanted to curl and style it. There aren’t too many out there (which honestly seems wild since so many people style their hair without washing every day) but I finally decided to try this one after reading the reviews. I’ve only used it once and liked it but will update my review once I’ve had more time to test it.

7. Lake Pajamas NEVER does sales so this is a rare opportunity to grab their luxe pajamas at a discount. My personal recommendation will always be their kimono set which I own in two prints because I love it so much.

8. A major splurge but this embroidered blouse is a work of art!

9. I keep all the baked goods that I make (not from scratch – Trader Joe’s to the rescue!) in a cake stand on my kitchen counter. The cake stand just broke the other day so I ordered this black/white marble swirl one which I LOVE!!!

10. How fun is this multi-colored striped button down? It’s so whimsical but still somewhat classic because of the shape and fit.

11. While this looks like a simple white utility jacket, if you zoom in on the fabric you can see it is all embroidered with white eyelet!

What to Wear To a Spring Wedding

Spring wedding season is in full swing and it can be hard to decide what to wear as a wedding guest. Should you choose something short, long, printed, solid, bright colors or neutral? There are so many options out there to choose from so I thought I would share some of my personal looks that would work for a spring wedding as well as other options that would suit a variety of venues and dress codes. When I think of spring wedding guest outfits, I immediately picture lightweight fabrics in soft colors.  Delicate details mixed with neutral accents perfectly embody a spring wedding guest look.

What Jewelry Is Suitable for Casual Wear?

As someone who never used to wear jewelry, I realized how much my outfits were missing when getting dressed each morning. I began experimenting with simple pieces that I could wear with everyday looks and now love mixing my favorite bold statement pieces with dainty styles. Wearing jewelry is a great way to elevate your outfits but can make you look overdressed when worn with certain casual looks. It’s important to find the right balance of versatility, comfort, and personal style when deciding what jewelry looks best with casual wear. Not all jewelry styles work best for casual outfits so I am going to share a round up of jewelry options that you can comfortably wear every day.

A Korean Skincare Brand Worth Trying: Then I Met You Skincare Reviews

, |

I first fell in love with Then I Met You after trying their top selling cleansing balm which has now become one of my all time favorite cleansers. I was curious to try out more from the brand Then I Met You and thought I would give me thoughts on all the products I’ve tested. Their founder, Charlotte Cho, is a pioneer in the beauty world after creating the website Soko Glam which brought popular Korean skincare products to the US. She finally started her own skincare line and has grown it slowly and intentionally with thoughtfully formulated products rooted in the techniques and ingredients found in Korean beauty culture. If you have not yet tried the brand, I highly recommend reading my reviews on these products to find something that would work for your skincare routine. Also, if you buy directly from the Then I Met You site, you can use my discount code: MAREE10 for 10% off!

What I’m Shopping For This Spring

There may still be snow on the ground but I am already thinking about spring outfits! I always like shopping a season ahead so I can plan out the things I want to add to pieces I already own. I find that I am more thoughtful and intentional with my shopping when I order a few months prior to the next season. Here are some pieces I’ve already ordered for spring!
