2. Megan Bonded Suedette Bomber ($60)

A relaxed-fit bomber looks good on any body type, and there's now a version in every color and fabric. This faux suede jacket in blush pink with gold stud buttons has a luxe vibe that belies its low price. Buy it at Boohoo.

3. Adidas Originals by Rita Ora ($250)

This reversible jacket ($250) pulls double duty. One version has embroidered cranes on the chest and Japanese landmarks on the back; reversed, the jacket pairs cranes in back with striped track sleeves. Buy it at Urban Outfitters.

4. Scotch & Soda Silky Bomber ($225)

This sleek jacket with contrasting front panels and embroidery on the sleeves looks great on sunny days but can also help keep away the chill when the temperature plummets on a spring night out. Buy it at Scotch & Soda.

5. Zara Printed Bomber ($70)

Though wearing florals in spring usually won't win you originality points, "floral bombers feel fresh." According to Brown at New York Magazine, Zara's option ($70), which features "a slim, sporty cut" and on-trend contrast sleeves, wants to be left unzipped. Buy it at Zara.
