How to Wear Leather Jackets in Spring?
Leather jackets are not only reserved for two-piece outfits, like a blouse and pants but rather dresses too. Leather jackets can be paired with dresses, jumpsuits, and all sorts of clothing items as long as you have a sense of fashion as well as coordinate the colour scheme. Therefore I will make it easy for you and begin with this super flowy spring dress topped with a leather jacket.
1 – Flowy Dresses + Leather Jackets
This is a very chic and decent look for spring, given that your dress is a light or pastel shade and reflects the colors of spring, it can be topped with a leather jacket of the same colour but a shade darker.

Here’s our exclusive guide on How to Pair Jackets with Dresses.

6 – When Spring Is Around The Corner
It may come off as a surprise how essential leather jackets are in spring. That’s because we only associate jackets with winter and while that may be true for most, it certainly isn’t the case with leather jackets. Do some spring days feel warm but at night you can’t help but wish you brought a shawl along? Maybe the shawl is jeopardizing your look, which is why leather jackets are to the rescue. Make this spring remarkable by purchasing a white leather jacket and pairing it with boho outfits like a long yellow skirt. Pair it with a white tee that I’m sure you own. It’s important to invest in a good pair of sunglasses every once in a while so make sure to get your hands on some ray bans as well.

8 – The Sporty Look
Running days are very important to many girls, and on those days you may be worried about sweating into your jacket especially if you’re unsure of the weather. I’d recommend adding a leather jacket to your outfit, not only will it give you warmth when needed but also you won’t feel the sweat sticking to your skin under it. The material is perfect for a sporty look!
9 – Statement Red Jacket
Red leather jackets are a fashion statement on their own. You will absolutely fall in love with this look if you are the type who like standing out or always showing up with a bold look. Red is a fierce colour and it is better contrasted with faded grey than any other colour that may threaten its spotlight and change the aura of your look. Match a fiery red leather jacket with any simple grey tee and grey faded jeans, along with a purse of the same shade of red. If you can’t pair a similar purse with it, even a tote bag will do. Or substitute the purse/tote bag for some red Louboutins.
10 – Tourist In All Brown
Tourism is on everyone’s checklist at least once a year. For your next tourist look, go with an all-brown outfit. Whether it is the Colosseum of Rome or New York’s Empire State Building, it all coordinates with a brown leather jacket more than anything. You will find that this colour compliments almost every tourist site. Mix your jacket with some warm and neutral colors like high-waisted cream-colored plaid pants, and off-white heels. Your brown leather wallet will go perfectly with this look.
11 – Long Leather Jacket Trend
Long leather jackets have their own place in the fashion industry and they always should. Substitute your raincoats for long leather jackets because these are perfect for rainy days. They play a dual shift by keeping you warm as well as protecting you from the rain. It’s time you heavily invest in one, as they go with almost any type of jeans and do not require much effort to style either. A simple low bun with a tee and jeans covered by your stunning long jacket, and similar leather ankle boots. What can be more daring than that?

14 – Olive Green Never Disappoints
The colour green might be looked down upon but we tend to forget it has given us one of the superior colors; olive green. An olive-colored leather jacket is seemingly important in making an impression and that is because of its unique colour. Other colors and basic and can be worn by anyone but only the daring will go near an olive leather jacket. So if you’re all up for dares then do not hesitate to pull on this leather jacket at your next outing this winter. The best part about olive green is it will go along with black more than any other colour, so the best way to style this jacket would be a black turtle neck with some black high-waisted jeans and similar black boots.

15 – Double Breasted Leather Jacket
If your style really isn’t girly or you are not in touch with pastel and light colors yet you are willing to try it out, my advice would be to go with a double-breasted leather jacket of a light shade like this powder blue or cream white. Not only will it take away your dilemma of wearing something too girly or light, but it will also make you feel comfortable knowing leather jackets are a very grunge clothing item on their own. On top of that, double-breasted coats and jackets also have a vintage aura and will give off some aesthetic 90’s vibes. This will look bomb on top of a black bodysuit or jumpsuit, with a pair of strappy heels.
16 – How to Style Baggy Leather Jackets
Girls love wearing baggy clothes, especially those who may not be open to showing their bodies for personal reasons. They may feel like they are missing out on leather jackets for that reason since almost all of them are fitted however fear not because baggy leather jackets certainly exist and they are waiting to be worn by you! Do not hesitate to add a baggy leather jacket to your outfit next time, the same way you would add a baggy zip-up hoodie or a teddy coat, trust me this is the perfect substitution.
