Spring - what do you wear & jacket suggestions please!

A general spring wardrobe question with a more specific question about what jacket to buy....

I am going on holiday at the weekend (to Spain) which has prompted me to start thinking about my spring wardrobe. This is my first year as a SAHM and my usual wardrobe isn't really baby appropriate (to expensive / smart / black). All winter I have been wearing either leggings / polo necks (my wardrobe staple) & long cardigans with high boots or jeans and polo necks with boots. Suggestions please.

Also.... I need a spring weight jacket. I am liking the current blazer trend - what colour to go for and anyone know where they have nice ones that won't break the bank? I am thinking maybe navy.

Thanks very much
MM

Thanks Ta. I have a few Zara blazers in the loft I may dig out. I love Zara.

I have a beautiful silk snakeskin dress from there I'd like to wear on holiday. We're going with friends who'll sit dd so we can have first night out in 10 months! I wear the dress here with opaques and heels. What about in spring?

Blazer idea here, I bought the navy and it's lovely, a thick textured cotton with a lovely floral printed lining.

I am looking for a spring jacket/blazer as well .. I quite like that Boden one MSB but not sure about the big contrast buttons .. has anyone seen any others? I cant get to the shops so would have to be online!

I finally found a jacket yesterday (I say finally - after several days of looking in the shops) in Whistles. It is a navy smartish blazer / jacket and was in the sale reduced from £180 to £35 . I looked in loads of shops - Zara have some nice denim style blazers and their usual smart jackets (which I already have in black, brown and beige) but I couldn't find a navy blazer anywhere (until Whistles....)
