My Wardrobe Was Missing a Casual Summer Jacket, So I’ve Found the Best Out There

As we round the corner towards the final stretch of summer, I’ve been digging though my wardrobe, in search of those hero transitional items to tied me over until the seasons change.

I’m already wearing jeans on the regular and have been partial to styling an oversized shirt on top of a tank top, but as we creep towards September I’m looking for something a little hardier in the outwear department. 

In my eyes, the perfect casual summer jacket is lightweight enough to carry in your bag during the mid-day sun, but warm enough to keep you cosy when day turns to night. 

There are a few styles I call upon to embrace the job: a lightweight trench is ideal outerwear either side of the peak of summer, and a trusty denim jacket looks equally great paired with denim shorts as it does a maxi dress.

Luckily you don’t have to look far to find an offering to suit your taste and budget. Up and down the high street, as well as across luxury brands, retailers have perfected their offerings.

Whether your version of casual sees you styling a blazer with jeans instead of trousers, or you’re on the look out for an oversized bomber jacket for weekend days, read on to discover our favourite casual jackets to see you through the rest of summer.

There’s no better option to fair a drizzly summer day. Styled with jeans, smart trousers, or a plain white tank, a sweeping trench is the effortlessly chic way to master summer layering.

You can’t help but feel cool when wrapped up in a bomber. The utilitarian style lends itself to styling with chunky boots on rainy days, but we love juxtaposing the look with a pair of sling-backs or strappy sandals–weather permitting.

Lightweight and easy to style.

In my opinion, there is no jacket style more perfect for the summer evenings than a classic denim jacket. Cropped or longline, any style goes.

Blazers remain current, so we’ll continue to style ours throughout the warmer months. For a casual twist, we love pairing an oversized blazer with all things denim, plus plenty of accessories. Currently, we’re leaning towards natural fabrics such as linens or cotton for the remainder of summer.
