How to Style a Jacket for Spring

It has been a couple of months since I have shared a fashion post here on the blog. It has just been so cold and yucky that I did not want to go outside without being bundled up like Randy in A Christmas Story! But, now Spring is here and I have received several new pieces from the Aventura Spring 2018 line. I even did a Live unboxing on Facebook to show you what I got and a few ways I plan to style them.  I am joining some of my fellow Aventura Ambassadors to share how we style a utility jacket during this transitional season. I am styling the Tara jacket with a striped tee and olive green joggers.

This time of year, it is hard to know what to wear because it is 40 in the morning, but 70 by the afternoon and my office is usually cold. I have been adding jackets and over-sized cardis to my wardrobe the last couple of years because they add a extra layer of interest to an outfit and keep you warm when you need it.

The Tara Jacket is a utility style jacket with a shorter cut and peplum style detail. It is a great jacket to wear with jeans or over a sundress! (which I did on Easter) I love the way the buttons are attached with a ribbon and the tie detail at the waist which gives it a feminine fit. Can we also talk about the joggers for a minute? I finally jumped on the bandwagon and gave them a try. Normally, I need a long/tall length with pants, but since it is spring, I don't mind the cropped look. They are a nice cotton twill fabric and have the cutest zipper detail at the ankles. These will definitely be on repeat so keep an eye on my IG feed for more ways to style them.

Jamie from Mommy in Flats: "A jacket is the perfect way to break out those summer dresses and dress up jeans and a tee. A good jacket is an investment that will stay in your closet year after year, so don’t be afraid to splurge, just make sure it’s a flattering classic style in a neutral color like the Tara jacket from Aventura."
