This Time of Year, the Jacket That Returns to Hollywood Like Clockwork

Shackets, blazers, windbreakers, and trench coats are rugged, stylish, and designed to withstand the unpredictable spring weather. However, if you're looking to expand your outerwear collection beyond the basics, let Mindy Kaling inspire your next purchase.

Kaling was spotted on the beach at sunset and looked as cozy as she did cute in her shorts and messy top bun. However, the real show-stopper was a blue quilted coat that appeared both stylish and warm in other words, everything we want in a spring jacket.

While we don't know where Kaling got her jacket, we know this: Quilted coats are in high demand and appear to be a favorite springtime staple, as they always appear on time. Reese Witherspoon has previously worn similar toppers, Blake Lively has worn longer variations of the quilted coat for recent New York City outings, also Katie Holmes opted for one of the trend's most daring takes last May. As a news, there is a lot of variety in this outerwear trend, which means you will have no no problem finding a style that suits you.

There's a lot to like about the quilted coat; even the name screams cozy and comforting. This is due to the outerwear resembling a wearable quilt. As a result, it not only has the same padded texture as that multi-layered textile you probably have lying around at home, but it's also nearly (if not exactly) as comfortable. And, as we all know, cozy style is the better option, made even better when it's also stylish.
