Confessions of a Shopaholic: Plus-Size Transitional Outwear

While we would all love to leap into crop tops and bathing suits right away there’s a whole season of style before summer arrives. Thankfully there’s plenty of stylish plus-size transitional outwear that’s cute enough to make the wait worth it.

With the birds chirping and the buds blooming a floral print can seem sort of obvious for early spring. Work it into your wardrobe with this printed bomber from Forever 21 ($24.90). The soft print is balanced by the athletic cut of the jacket giving off a vibrant and youthful vibe. At such a low price point this trendy piece is an easy way to give a boost to your closet staples.

There’s no better way to put a positive spin on April showers than shopping for a timeless trench coat. This subtle and sturdy option from Michael Kors ($128.90, also available in black) boasts a detachable liner allowing you to wear it in any weather. You can also choose to substitute your own belt for the standard one to add a unique touch of your personal style.

Motorcycle jackets are no longer just for leather clad bad girls. They can now be worn in a variety of ways with anything from a dainty sundress to a pair of boyfriend jeans. This semi-quilted choice from Eloquii ($126.40) is available at Nordstrom, who now price matches! That means any item spotted at another retailer for a lower price can now be purchased at Nordstrom for the exact same price. That’s definitely something to remember during one of their many sales!

If you’re looking for a dressier option, update your look with this vegan leather accented jacket from Junarose. The rounded collar conveys a classic feel while the leather provides a modern twist. And of course, black and white will always be a solid choice no matter what the season.

The waterfall draping trend has now expanded to parkas. Torrid has a great selection with a cinched waist ($54.98).

Scuba material is seriously awesome. It has the ability to be snug yet stretchy and it keeps you warm without weighing you down. Plus-size retailers are using this fabric to its full potential this season in a number of ways including this fantastic pleated jacket ($104.90). It comes in a wearable white as well.

Spring is only a week away! What pieces will you be transitioning with?
