Spring has finally started to show its bright, gorgeous, allergenic face this year, which is not only great news for our personal health, but our sartorial endeavors as well. No longer will you be forced to hide under a bundle of down coats, or stuff your thickest hoodie under your favorite winter bomber—spring is the most flexible of jacket seasons. But all that picking and choosing can certainly get frustrating. Which is why we’ve created the Spring Jacket Encyclopedia—a style guide to your most dynamic spring wardrobe yet.
