31 Spring Coats That Are Equal Parts Stylish and Weather-Appropriate

April is here! Which is simultaneously exciting and upsetting. Exciting, because it means spring is basically here. Upsetting, because it clearly doesn’t—it snowed in New York this weekend, leaving my April duds skewing more puffer coat than sundress. In times like these, it’s crucial to flesh out our wardrobes with items that delight as much as they serve. Coats, jackets and pants are all on the sartorial menu, because they have to be. So the least we can do is shop spring coats, spring jackets and spring pants—you know, pieces that actually feel spring-worthy despite being totally transitional weather-friendly.

Spring is a weird season for outerwear, because it doesn’t feel like there should be any outerwear involved. Spring means sunny days spent at the park, weekend getaways to the beach, spring breaks, spring flings, spring formals and any other warm-weather activity you can think of. When we think of spring clothes, we call to mind woven wedges, breezy dresses and slinky mini skirts; outerwear doesn’t enter the picture, because it’s been way too involved in the picture for the last five months. Aren’t we done with coats and jackets and cardigans and sweaters already? Damn.

But the truth—whether or not we choose to accept it—is that spring is a fairly chilly season. Every year, long after the technical equinox strikes, lower temperatures manage to pervade (or more precisely, invade) our lives for weeks on end. When a chilly day strikes, won’t we be happier in a coat that feels like spring, even if the weather doesn’t?

I know it feels counterintuitive, but at this point, it’s pretty damn necessary to stock up on spring coats of all kinds. The silver lining? While shopping for cozy, spring-friendly pieces, we can also look ahead and shop lighter-weight, very spring-friendly ones. Warmer temperatures are just around the corner, but until then, we plan to stun in the cutest spring coats on the market.
