Update your outfit-finishers
01 windbreaker + sporty
“One of the biggest jacket trends for spring is the tech jacket or windbreaker,” says New York City–based stylist Samantha Brown. Though it’s a throwback to the ‘80s, it feels modern when paired with other warm-weather staples, Brown explains. Don one with straight-leg denim for a street-style look or over running shorts on a weekend hike.

02 white denim + tiny ‘90s
“I love the juxtaposition of this pairing,” says Piper Gore, a New York City–based stylist and designer. A boyish jacket with a feminine frame strikes the perfect balance. Try this combination with a printed dress and sandals, or over workout tights and a sports bra after Pilates or yoga.

03 suede + aviators
This blouson-style jacket was all over the runways at shows like Jacquemus and Todd Snyder, and provides a solid seasonal update to the traditional leather moto. Aviators add to the ‘70s vibe, so feel free to mix in a camp-collar shirt for the full effect.

04 utility + shield
Utility-wear is one of spring’s biggest—and most versatile—looks. “You can dress it down with a simple white tee and boyfriend jeans or up with a black jumpsuit and heels,” says Memphis, Tennessee-based personal stylist Estelle Winsett. Shield sunglasses are a carryover from winter’s ski sunglasses trend, and work well with utility pieces since their roots also stem from performance qualities over aesthetics.
