Looking for a nice spring jacket

Has anyone found a nice lightweight spring jacket? I’m a size 16-18, WFH so usually in leggings and hoodies but occasionally in office casual and pub visits so need one to cover all possibilities if poss.

Bum covering is a must, I can’t do cropped!! Darker colours preferred, budget up to £150 for the perfect one, but cheaper preferred.

I had seen this one in a FB ad that I really
like but the company reviews are terrible so I’m not going near.

That new look one looks great

There’s a thread on quilted jackets that may provide some inspiration

Is that New Look jacket a denim weight one? I've just sent one back because I found it too heavy.

Uniqlo have similar to the New Look one. I got smaller than my usual size as it’s a bit oversized. Not denim weight - lighter than denim, a nice weight for spring/summer.
edited to add a link: (it looks a lot nicer in than in their pictures! Look at the inspiration pics at the bottom of the page) https://www.uniqlo.com/uk/en/product/jersey-relaxed-fit-jacket-465469.html?dwvar_465469_color=COL09&dwvar_465469_size=SMA003

No its light and soft, but holds its shape well, if that makes sense.

@Smokedsausagesupper - I love that jacket! Can I ask if it fits true to size?

AllTheBlackCoffee · 16/04/2024 09:20

Thanks everyone! @Smokedsausagesupper I'll take a look at that one, I do like it but I worry about having my expansive arse on show!

I got that New Look jacket last year and wore it loads, I've been wearing it again this year, I've just bought these from H & M and a light weight unlined trench from Stradivarius at ASOS.
