One Bomber Jacket, Four Ways

Work

Styling tip: Shake up your workwear by trading in your blazer for a sleek bomber. Opt for a round-neck shell top to pair with wide-leg trousers to elevate the momentous jacket for the office.

Daytime

Styling tip: For any daytime activity, team the jacket with a striped midi tube dress—another big spring trend. Accessorize with a slouchy crossbody and comfortable white sneakers adorned with metallic details.

Evening

Styling tip: Add tomboy vibes to a sexy night-out look by draping a bomber over a matching suede combo, strappy heels and dainty choker.

Weekend

Styling tip: Whether brunch or a shopping spree is calling your name, this hero jacket pairs well with off-duty jeans. Select a fun patched version to wear with a cropped sweater, vibrant glove flats and mirrored sunnies.
