Hit a home run with your Varsity Jacket!!!

March 13, 2012

As you all can tell, a very fashionable trend for women this season is boyfriend-inspired clothing. And since it is the spring time, one of the hottest trends is baseball jackets/varsity jackets! Now, you can find women’s baseball jackets in so many different styles, colors, as well as materials. A great thing about them is that they look great on almost anything; from jeans and trousers to trainers. Some of the details that you can find on baseball jackets this season include elasticized waistbands and cuffs, printed logos, contrast colors, contrast materials, front zippers, vertical welt pockets, ribbed trim collars, and so much more! You can also find them in a wide array of colors too such as white, navy, blue, black, red, orange, green, and so much more!

Even if you weren’t a star athlete in high school, you can now look like one, thanks to the latest trend in spring outerwear. Varsity jackets are the hot new thing and you don’t have to go back to HS to wear one.

I started noticing letterman jackets in fast fashion shops like Forever 21 and Urban Outfitters, then saw them popping up on street style blogs and being mentioned in comments from CF readers. It appears that us college girls aren’t the only ones interested in the trend – luxury retailers have sent expensive versions of their own down the runway! (See photos below.)

I think this trend can look fantastic on everyone. I also love seeing them styled in unexpected ways, like with a skirt and tights, or with colored denim as seen below. I’m anticipating seeing these jackets everywhere come spring.
