All season long, we’ve been wrapping up in the same street-style fave we saw taking over NYFW 2018 — the trench coat. As the weather warms up, hemlines are getting shorter, even on your outerwear. The cropped jacket is an abridged take on covering up and comes in options like leather, denim, and faux fur. Scroll through to find the best fit for you!
New Look Crop Denim Jacket ($48): Brighten up your day — and everyone else’s — by throwing on this sunny piece atop your favorite tee.
BP. Crop Trench Coat ($59):
You won’t have to completely ditch your beloved trench thanks to this shortened design. With its khaki color and double-breasted front, it has all the classic elements of the original.
Mother The Breaker Breaker Crop Jacket ($345):
Mother offers up a sportier take on the look with this bold track style with contrasting white piping.
Topshop Cropped Studded Jacket ($130): Pair this studded Western crop with a simple bodysuit and high-waisted jeans.
Need Supply Co. Stelen Lara Faux Fur Jacket ($72): With a shortened hemline and pastel hue, faux fur is a must for the spring.
