As we all know, Spring weather can be unpredictable – which makes getting dressed in the morning a little tricky.  But there is a trend that I’m seeing a lot of this Spring that seems to make sense (if you aren’t planning on rushing from place to place).  Jackets draped over the shoulders  perfect for those days when you’re not in need of complete warmth of a jacket, but want one with for later.

I love this look  classic and polished, yet cool and nonchalant.  This season we’re seeing all sorts of jackets draped over the shoulders; leather biker jackets, pea coats and blazers paired with skinny denim, tuxedo pants and even shorts.  Think of it as a trendy version of something great aunt Eleanore might wear.  And for those of you who love layering – this is the perfect way to add another layer of dimension to your outfit.

Yes, this trend looks cool  but it can be a little fussy (there’s an awkward balancing act that goes on with your shoulders).  Try out this trend while strolling around town, and be sure to carry a clutch or top handle bag – a bag with a long strap will just get in the way.
