10 Light Jackets for the Perfect Date

We love movies—especially when we can integrate them into real life.

Every Oct. 3, we ask everyone what day it is in honor of “Mean Girls”; we welcomed the future’s arrival on Oct. 21, 2015, alongside “Back to the Future II”; and we celebrate Rex Manning Day every April 8, thanks to “Empire Records.”

Thanks to “Miss Congeniality,” we also always take advantage of April 25—the perfect date. Bonus: We always know exactly what to wear.

With the perfect date just five days away, we rounded up some of the industry’s best light jackets. But April 25 isn’t the only occasion where light jackets are appropriate. End-users will want to wear these all season long.
