March is here! Which is simultaneously exciting and upsetting. Exciting, because it means spring is basically here. Upsetting, because it clearly doesn’t—it snowed in New York this weekend, leaving my March duds skewing more puffer coat than sundress. In times like these, it’s crucial to flesh out our wardrobes with items that delight as much as they serve. Coats, jackets and pants are all on the sartorial menu, because they have to be. So the least we can do is shop spring coats, spring jackets and spring pants—you know, pieces that actually feel spring-worthy despite being totally transitional weather-friendly.
Spring is a weird season for outerwear, because it doesn’t feel like there should be any outerwear involved. Spring means sunny days spent at the park, weekend getaways to the beach, spring breaks, spring flings, spring formals and any other warm-weather activity you can think of. When we think of spring clothes, we call to mind woven wedges, breezy dresses and slinky mini skirts; outerwear doesn’t enter the picture, because it’s been way too involved in the picture for the last five months. Aren’t we done with coats and jackets and cardigans and sweaters already? Damn.
But the truth—whether or not we choose to accept it—is that spring is a fairly chilly season. The equinox doesn’t technically strike until March 20, so we’re doomed to suffer winter weather for several more weeks. And even once the official winter-to-spring transition takes place, lower temperatures are still sure to pervade (or more precisely, invade) our lives for weeks to come. When a chilly day strikes, won’t we be happier in a coat that feels like spring, even if the weather doesn’t?
I know it feels counterintuitive, but at this point, it’s pretty damn necessary to stock up on spring coats of all kinds. The silver lining? While shopping for cozy, spring-friendly pieces, we can also look ahead and shop lighter-weight, very spring-friendly ones. Warmer temperatures are just around the corner, but until then, we plan to stun in the cutest spring coats on the market.

3. Capulet Danna Gingham Belted Trench Coat, $249 at Urban Outfitters
OK, you probably won’t be able to bust this one out for a bit. But it’ll pay to own something so lightweight (and so adorable) once the snow’s gone for good.
4. Wool Blend Straight Coat, $219 at & Other Stories
Because if we have to wear fuzzy wool in March, it better be pink.
