Runway Looks I Love in Spring Jackets

For some countries, Winter has gone by... and now is time for Spring!

In Spring, sometimes we also want to put on a jacket, whether it's for keeping us warm from the chill of spring, or as a shield from the wind, or to layer up our sleeveless-tops, or simply for a fashion statement... :) We will definitely avoid to choose the 'heavy' ones.

To find the perfect jackets for Spring I stumbled upon a site, womens-fashion.lovetoknow.com.

It has many fashion tips and there is a slide showing some women's spring fashion jackets 'in action' on the Runway.

The light-weight fabrics are a great aspect for spring jackets.. added with fresh colors, pretty styling and designs fit for warmer temps, the jackets would be perfect to be wore over your spring outfits and be your wardrobe staples.

Here are my pick-up ones that I'd like to share with you:


Light-Weight Jacket

D & G Jacket
This jacket adds the extra layer without obscuring a pretty outfit. Versatile khaki works well for spring, and details like rough hems and covered buttons add texture to a simple jacket.


White Jacket

Dries Van Noten Jacket
A white spring jacket. From loose casual blazers to short cropped jackets, white is a perfect fresh color for the season and works well with everything from light prints dresses to jeans and tees.


Sheer Jacket

John Galliano Jacket
The sheer jacket adds depth and interest to your ensemble without adding bulk.


Light Denim Jacket

Express Jacket
A light denim jacket looks sensational paired with a pretty floral print blouse.


Bright Colors Jacket

Gucci Jacket
A short jacket in a bright, bold hue, such as this blazer-style jacket in tangerine, adds a splash of sunny color to any outfit.


Glam Jacket

Balmain Jacket
For spring evenings, a lightweight jacket with added detail, like this embellished jacket, can add flair and a glamorous vibe to your look.





Which one is your favorite?

Coat-Dresses from Burberry Prorsum Resort 2011

OUTERWEAR
I adore these coat-dresses :)

Lately, I've been looking for a jacket, an ever-last jacket with a nice cut and classic style. Khaki colors and military look become trends this summer.

A jacket or a coat-dress is very useful, and also helpful, for hijabi muslimah. We need it as an outerwear. If we need to go outside, all we have to do is just wearing it over our usual tops at home. Cover the feet with long skirt/pants, and put on a headscarf. Maxi dress also a perfect pair for a jacket.

Look at these Burberry Prorsum Resort 2011's coat-dresses/jackets, and tell me what do you think about these? I love the style and the colors. A classic or military style with khaki colors, there's also a black-and-white animal print, and a textured material.

But, to make it hijab-friendly, we need to remove or loosen up the belt. The wide leather-belts with Phyton print and the studded belts are fabulous, but it makes the clothes look unmodest. Perhaps, a more-modest way to wear the belt is wearing it underneath the jacket (on your skirt/maxidress), instead of wearing it as outerwear, and let the buttons of the jacket open.

Fun Summer Jackets Style Snaps and Summer 2010 Maxi-Dress Picks

Happy Summer!

Yesterday I was looking at one of hijab stores at my city, and I've just came across these fun summer jackets :)



In the Summer, instead of wearing a thick-heavy jacket or stuffy cardigan, it's more comfort to wear a light-weight or cotton jacket. Or, you can wear shirts or blouses with front-open-buttons as Summer 'jackets'... :) 

Pair a jacket with sleeveless Summer tops or maxi dresses for 'cool' cover-ups... Maxi Dress is a good choice for Summer. It has a really good air-circulation to keep us cool, isn't it? :)

And these are my favorite Maxi Dresses from Spring/Summer 2010 collection.

As an alternative look, or even a solution for maxi dress that has too-open-part at the top, try to wearing it with a belted long-jacket  à la Aquascutum and cover the bosom with your big-size headscarves.

Do you have your favorite cover-ups for Summer?
