8 Plus Size Spring Jackets
Fly Friends! Spring is on the way and I want to be ready! If you’ve been living in snowy weather for the past few months you might be even more excited than I am to welcome some warmer weather. We all know that retail starts seasons early and it’s important to jump on the plus size styles before they sell out! So here are the eight plus size spring jackets you need to keep an eye out for as you start your spring shopping!
Denim Plus Size Spring Jackets
If you don’t have a good denim jacket in your wardrobe yet, get on that! Light-wash, dark-wash, medium, or a fun color, a plus size denim jacket is a staple for any wardrobe. Plus size spring jackets start here with the OG. Denim jackets not only come in different washes but also in a variety of thicknesses and details like sherpa lining and extra pockets, so you can always find one that fits your style.
Plus Size Shackets
Shackets are the perfect trendy layering piece for spring! This is a piece that you can keep in your closet all year long and can be worn in any season. There are different styles of plus size shackets like plaid, utility, solid, and blazer-style. Having one of two of these in your closet will definitely help your wardrobe! If you’re a cardigan person who is trying to branch out and try something different, this is a great pick!
Lightweight Quilted Jackets
Quilted jackets are a new trend on the rise! These are like the middle ground between shackets and puffer coats. They keep you warm but are still lightweight enough to wear on a sunny day. I love this zipper style with a hood but you can go more traditional with a floral pattern, snap buttons, or big statement buttons like this jacket from Madewell.
Athletic Plus Size Jackets
Sherpa and that lovely athletic swishy fabric are here to stay! Quarter zips and cropped styles are also really popular this spring. It’s nice to have a fun casual jacket to throw over jeans and a tee to give the look some color and texture. These are the perfect layers for running errands, going to the gym, or a day where you’re super busy and just need a lightweight layer that is cute and durable.
Rain Jackets
In the world of COVID the fashion world has really put practicality and comfort first and finally made cute rain jackets in all sizes! This was an item that I used to despise wearing growing up because the options were never fun or cute! Now there are plaid, bright-colored, fruit printed, and animal print rain jackets that actually show fashion sense!
Utility Plus Size Spring Jackets
Utility jackets really blew up last year, and now there are tons of styles! The classic cargo, the “chore jacket,” a belted utility look, and the “painter’s coat.” Plus size spring jackets are really into evolving classic styles this year. These styles are modeled after uniform jackets and make for really cute lightweight layering pieces with lots of functional pockets for spring!
Bomber Jackets
Bombers are back! These varsity sports-inspired jackets were huge when we were all in middle and high school, and they are definitely making a comeback. Plaid, sherpa, cargo, and even floral prints are just a few of the fashion-forward details being added to this classic preppy style. Buying your own bomber jacket is just another way to say you don’t need a beefy football player in your life to loan one to you while you’re going steady. Be your own beefy football player, yano?
Blazer Plus Size Spring Jackets
Blazers will always be on-trend when it comes to plus size spring jackets. I love having a variety of plus size blazers for every outfit because they’re the perfect business casual jacket option. You can also dress them down with a classic white tee and jeans with sneakers. It’s smart to have a neutral option, a pop of color, a different textured blazer, and a printed option. This is another plus size jacket option that can stay in your closet through every season!
