20 Best Spring Jackets 2023 - Cute Lightweight Jackets for Teens

Spring fashion is the BEST. Absolutely chef's kiss, 11/10. Between tennis skirts, floral dresses, colorful denim, and finally ditching the super long, heavy puffer, what's not to love? You'll have to keep the always-changing temps in mind, though, because it can feel like some days it's 76 degrees and the very next, it drops back down to winter temps. The solution to avoid sweating or freezing by noon is to grab a spring jacket (*cue the "all you need is a light jacket" memes*) on your way out the door so you can easily throw it on or take it off.

From lightweight raincoats to beat those April showers to funky motocross jackets that'll have you serving Kylie Jenner energy, these babies that we've rounded up are tailored for any style. Better yet? Every single piece is under $100. Click ahead to start shopping some of the best 2023 spring jackets for any weather, temperature, and aesthetic that'll have you looking 💯 without spending hundreds.

Get ready to retire your ankle-length puffer coat and swap in a mini puffer vest. Layering it over a preppy button-down and cute crewneck combo is soooo East Coast.

If you're going to invest in one versatile spring jacket that will go with everything, this sparkly denim number is the perfect choice. It's got just the right amount of low-key pizzazz.

Valentines Day might be over, but we're firm believers in wearing pink and red all year round. Through Nuuly, you can rent this baby (plus five other pieces) for only $88/month.

If you've been wearing black all winter, it's time for some color! Spice things up with a pastel varsity jacket that can be thrown over a mini for extra warmth, or layered over a thin sweater.

A plum-colored blazer is a smart choice for spring. If you want to achieve maximum boss babe energy, wear the full matching set — and then top it off with a chill baseball cap.

We've never seen a jacket that gives off stronger spring vibes than this sherpa coat. It's warm, but it's not too toasty that you'll worry about sweating under it. Pair with flare jeans to maximize your flower power.

Looking for a modern twist on a classic bomber jacket? Crop it, add edgy leather sleeves, and pair with your favorite jeans. Done!

Don't let the fluctuating temps kill your outfit. A colorful denim jacket will keep you dry and looking fly during those random rain spritzes, and then you can throw it over your shoulders when it gets warmer outside.

A lightweight quilted jacket is a must and will come in handy when you’re traveling abroad, camping in the woods, or chilling on the beach. Look no further than this chill purple one that can be styled over a hoodie for extra warmth.

Just because it's raining outside doesn't mean you have to sacrifice any ~vibes~. A clear PVC raincoat will ensure your outfit is fully visible at all times.

With spring comes the start of baseball szn, which is your official permission to wear your baseball jacket wherever and whenever — even if you've never set foot on the field.

A camo utility shacket is cool yet functional for spring's unpredictable weather. Slip it on over a crop top and a tennis skirt for your next concert.

Splurge on an elevated black leather jacket in a high-neck cut. You'll be obsessed with how easily this bad boy will add polish to your more neutral outfits.

Motocross jackets are beloved by Hailey Bieber, Kylie Jenner, and other It girlies rn for their edgy take on the leather staple. It'll dress up anything from a plain white tee to a micro-mini skirt.

Serve Gossip Girl energy in a cropped tweed blazer. Wear with jeans for a casual vibe or snag a matching mini for those #OldMoneyAesthetic vibes.

If the black bomber jacket you wore all winter long (like, every other day) is looking a little worse for wear, freshen things up the spring way with a cheery yellow version.

Already own a black leather jacket? Then opt for a colorful one like this red style that will surely become your new spring staple.

We'll be wearing shackets all season long. They're warm enough to keep out the wind chill, while still being soft enough to tie around your waist in the afternoon.

A neutral leopard print makes for the perfect jacket to throw on over jeans or even your post-yoga athleisure look. It's a versatile piece that you'll reach for over and over again.

There's a reason we all gravitate towards blooming colors each spring — pinks, blues, yellows, and greens will bring life to your closet after a long winter of bulky sweaters and heavy jeans.
