    One of the biggest style lessons I’ve learned since becoming a New Yorker is that your coat or jacket makes your outfit. As we approach the spring season, I’m taking stock of my outerwear collection with this in mind. My closet is filled with puffer jackets and thick wool coats, but I'm missing lighter, equally essential layers to wear when the weather warms. So, I’m looking for a few new spring jackets to conquer tricky transitional weather, and I'm using J.Crew’s Pre-Spring Event to do so while sticking to my budget.

    J.Crew has everything I need to refresh my mid-winter wardrobe—including a selection of must-buy spring jackets. The selection includes everything from classic trench coats and denim styles to trendy barn jackets. Better yet, my finds are discounted by up to 50 percent. Even better, some sale finds are an additional 50 percent off with the code EXTRA.

    Keep scrolling for a curated edit of J.Crew’s best on-sale jackets for the upcoming season. I rounded up 19 chic picks that are worth adding to your spring wardrobe. Don’t wait to score your favorites, though—sizes are quickly selling out, and the deals end on February 24.
