Summer Jackets: Our Top Picks

Of course, we absolutely love the brighter weather and warmer days, but sometimes it can be tricky knowing which piece of outerwear to style with your ‘fit.

This summer, you’re in for a treat ‘cos we’ve pulled together a cool collection of lightweight jackets for women and coats you’ll love – so those ‘what should I wear?’ moments are far and few between.

From light summer jackets to staple transitional outerwear, our guide is bursting with the most irresistible looks you won’t want to miss. Scroll down to give your wardrobe a well-deserved summer refresh.

Which Jacket Goes With Everything?

If you’re looking for a transitional jacket you can wear season after season with countless looks, you’re in luck!

Whether you prefer jet black, denim blues or stone and sand shades, there’s a summer jacket for everyone in our latest drop. In our eyes, you can’t go wrong with a denim jacket, bomber or leather jacket, and we’ve listed some of our faves below.

The ‘Bomb’ Bomber Jacket

Just as the name suggests, this iconic piece will have you looking THE bomb.

Keep things classic and pop on a bomber jacket in black and layer with a light-coloured hoodie in sand or stone. Embrace matchy-matchy vibes and work a pair of joggers in the same colour and style. Finish your streetwear look with a matching pair of high top trainers or canvas pumps.

For casual ensembles, choose cream quilted bomber jackets or varsity styles for a preppy light summer jacket.

The Trusty Denim Jacket

There’s nothing quite like a denim jacket, and in our eyes, it’s a top pick for every wardrobe. The perfect light jacket to keep you warm on cooler summer days.

Remember, denim pieces don’t always have to be blue, so go for an edgy look with a black denim jacket, or keep things fresh with a white option.

For daytime strolls and brunch dates, a floral dress teamed with a light blue denim jacket is an effortlessly stylish combo.

Cosy Cardigans

Who says you need to reserve your knitwear for winter? Certainly not us! During nippy summer days and crisp summer evenings, snug cardigans and jumpers are the ultimate alternative to summer jackets and the perfect addition to your capsule wardrobe.

This sunny season, we’re loving bright and neutral shades. Whether you’re rocking a ditsy dress or strutting in the age-old classic combo aka ‘jeans and a nice top’, layer your look with a bright orange or cream cardi.

Last but no means least, slip into a pair of women’s shoes that will complement your outfit and your plans.

Space For Shackets

A piece of outerwear to get to know this season (and way beyond) is the shacket. Cosier than a shirt and lighter than a coat, the shacket is a stylish crossover between a shirt and a jacket.

This versatile garm strikes the perfect balance between comfy and cool. You can throw your shacket over a number of looks, and they make a fab alternative to your go-to denim jacket or blazer.

Discover your dream design with checked shackets, dogtooth prints and flannel numbers.

The Must-Have Mac

For a signature transitional jacket you can wear throughout summer and beyond, the mac coat is a solid investment piece – thank us later!

Protecting your ‘fit from unexpected drizzles minus the bulk – it’s a classic style we can’t live without. We’re lovin’ timeless cream and black layers, and it will work a dream with everything from day dresses to essential jeans.

Add the final touches to your get-up with a crossbody bag and cool white canvas trainers.
