Sleeveless Jackets: Flex Your Spring Style

It's getting warmer...

Springtime means sunshine and sunshine means it's time to lose your sleeves—for good (read: until fall).

Say goodbye to your leather jacket and hello to something a little breezier, like a sleeveless jacket. Take after Doutzen Kroes and go the supermodel route by keeping yours buttoned up. It'll show off the garment's perfect tailoring while giving you some length in your posture (yes, it'll make you seem taller than you actually are). The key is long, clean lines and the outcome is fire!

If you like a less conservative look or are just wanting something fashion-forward (and not too stiff) for the weekend, keeping your sleeveless jacket open is a great style tip. No matter how casual your outfit, adding this layer elevates the look. Sofia Richie paired hers with a mini skirt and crop top, you should think about doing the same. If that look just isn't for you try boyfriend jeans, sneakers and a white tee.

Note: If you're hippy, throw a sleeveless jacket over any outfit and see incredibly flattering results.
