April showers bring May flowers...
Printed Bomber Jackets, specifically, floral prints for girls and palm tree prints for boys, are trending in outerwear for spring. For spring/summer 2014, Printed Bomber Jackets for women were on the runways of Novis, Alice + Olivia, and Tracy Reese and on the runways of 3.1 Phillip Lim, Vivienne Westwood and Viktor & Rolf for men. In a previous post I wrote about the versatility of Bomber Jackets and how they can be worn by both genders across all ages, and that they are the perfect transition jacket for your little one for the chilly spring weather. These new Bomber Jackets are nothing like the 90s OPP or Raiders jacket, but are more fitted, slightly cropped, and are Printed! I love Printed Bomber Jackets because they are the perfect juxtaposition of sporty and feminine for girls, and sporty and cool for boys.
