Each time this year I look for a casual spring/summer jacket and can't find one then give up and sort of make do with my winter coat or camping style rain coat or just go without.

I want a casual jacket I can wear for the school run.
I'm size 12/14, 5'6 with broad shoulders and narrow hips. Budget upto £70
My coats are normally black or olive green but I should change it up with a different colour really.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you

I didn't mean to post the cream version. I really like the khaki!

PeacefulPrune · 18/03/2022 20:42

Thank you. I was hoping for something a bit more chiq. Thats sort of like my actual rain coat.

Same here. Really need something

I like superdry for jackets : here

I think at this time of year a trench coat is a good all rounder- dresses up and down really easily. This one is slightly over your budget but I really rate the quality of Uniqlo

I have been browsing at M&S and found this: www.marksandspencer.com/cotton-rich-short-jacket/p/clp60441217?intid=mobile_app_pdp_share

This is far nicer in real life than how they styled it in the photo.

Isn't this what the perfect cardigan is for?!

There seem to be loads of gilets and shackets around at the min, both look great for the school run x

I also love denim jackets and would have one in every colour if I could!

IbizaToTheNorfolkBroads · 18/03/2022 21:47

Lurking9to5 · 18/03/2022 22:32

I like this!

Lurking9to5 · 18/03/2022 22:37

another one I like

Lurking9to5 · 18/03/2022 22:38

I'd wear all of these with jeans btw, I'm not a very formal dresser.

caprimoon · 18/03/2022 22:46

Perhaps not chic though!

bendmeoverbackwards · 18/03/2022 23:02

I like the khaki Boden one.
