What jackets are you wearing this spring/summer?

Looking for a bit of style inspiration for a new jacket, but I'm not sure what I want.
I have one for walking the dog/days out with the kids. I'm more looking for one for when I meet friends for a coffee or go out shopping. I live in jeans and don't suit double denim, so I don't want a denim jacket. Other than that I've no idea!
So could you please tell me what you're wearing so I can find someone to copy off.

Sorry no idea but same problem here so I am bumping and watching!

What about a blazer? Or do you want something more casual?

Uniqlo puffer jackets are nice. I keep eyeing them up Grin

Pink blazers seem to be in the shops, I really like them and I'm considering buying one.

I have 3 Blush denim jackets
4 leather bikers, one suede biker
black and navy blazer.
I'm after a bright blazer, maybe green.

I had this query a couple of weeks ago - I'm about to go away to Spain for a few days and needed a jacket to take but none of mine seemed to suit. I ended up with this white denim jacket

Getting a lot of wear out of this MD navy wool blazer:

Biker jackets
Cotton camo print jacket
Denim jacket (but not with blue jeans)
Grey jersey jacket
Black cotton bomber jacket

I need a raincoat sort of thing but can't find a single thing I'd be seen dead in, so far.

I wore my Didrikson earlier, it was bloody freezing!

OutComeTheWolves · 27/04/2018 18:59

Thank you for sharing your jackets! I hadn't considered a blazer but a bright coloured one sounds great for the summer.

I am wearing a navy quilted Barbour jacket as it’s still nippy. I wore my leather biker jacket earlier in the week too.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 27/04/2018 19:00

I like this blazer

CountFosco · 27/04/2018 19:44

Bum40 has a blog post about utility jackets. I've been eyeing one up for a while and this has not helped. Otherwise I have a denim jacket (never double denim though, although a blue denim jacket goes nicely with black jeans), and a biker. Keep looking at blazers but I don't feel like a blazer person. Always feel they should be worn with skyscraper heels, highlighted swishy hair and a full face of makeup.

Rose coloured biker jacket from silk Fred. Love it and get lots of compliments. Cheap too

chloechloe · 27/04/2018 20:08

The Massimo Dutti blazer is stunning! What's the sizing like, is it true to size of vanity sizing?

Argeles · 27/04/2018 20:15

A waterfall edged, suedette jacket in dusky rose.

Uniglo18 · 27/04/2018 20:30

I'm wearing my bloody winter coat, ugg boots & thermals.

I have impulse bought four jackets in the past month (having not bought any for years) - a brown leather biker jacket from Mint Velvet ( www.mintvelvet.co.uk/product/tan-leather-biker-jacket/14437 ), and three raincoats.

First raincoat is a white smart one from Zara ( m.zara.com/uk/en/faux-leather-raincoat-p03427010.html?v1=5770045&v2=910528 ) which I bloody love.

Second raincoat is a pack away cagoule type thing I panic ordered from ASOS after doubting the Zara one, and I needed something urgently for a weekend away. I haven’t worn the ASOS one yet because I keep wearing the lovely Zara one; but I’m keeping it for occasions when I need a light waterproof to fold up small in my handbag. And because it has birds of paradise on a lovely green background.

Third raincoat is a khaki Regatta one I bought from the garden centre today. It was pouring with rain and I was lugging around bags of topsoil. I didn’t want to get my white Zara raincoat filthy, the ASOS one was not up to that level of torrential rain, so suddenly I found myself buying yet another coat for the garden.

I got two leather biker jackets from Hugo boss in the sale, one olive green, one brown, very similar to this one and I love them. Pretty much go with anything.

My old red denim jacket, about 20 years old and still going strong, my red lace overlay jacket, notice a theme, which I discovered on top of my wardrobe with a striped blazer, multiple blues.
