12 Transitional Coats to Buy Now and Wear Through Spring 2025

I don’t know about anyone else, but I’m over the winter. I need more sun and warmth! Still, I know we’re a few weeks out from the official start of spring, and even then the weather can be pretty contradictory. One day, it’s cold to the bone outside, and the next, it’s bright, warm and sunny. The weather can even change within a few hours, which makes getting dressed so much more difficult. That’s why it’s important to have a solid selection of transitional coats to help you stay comfortable while looking cute throughout this finicky season.

With the 12 transitional coats ahead, you’ll be both stylish and happy as the seasons change. Take that, Mother Nature!

15 Fun and Flattering Winter-to-Spring Staples I'm Adding to Cart Before It's Too Late

12 Transitional Coats for Spring 2025

1. Sleek and Stylish: No matter how much the weather fluctuates in the coming months, you’ll be prepared (and look so chic!) in this elegant, lightweight, quilted puffer from Bellivera. The bronze hardware and contrast stitching make it a great option to wear on casual days and fancy occasions alike — $70 (originally $80) at Amazon!

Jason Kelce Thinks Travis 'Already Knows' His Answer About Retirement

Jason Kelce Hints Travis Already Knows His Answer About Possible NFL Retirement

Jason Kelce knows his way around an NFL retirement conversation — and his brother, Travis Kelce, might have his mind made up already.

During a recent chat with Charles Barkley and Ernie Johnson on “The Steam Room,” Jason, 37, reflected on getting his brother’s guidance before making his own decision about leaving the Philadelphia Eagles last year.

“[I talked to Travis] a lot,” Jason said on the podcast, which dropped Friday, February 21.

Jason added that he would “for sure” return the favor for Travis, 35, when he’s ready. “I’m sure we will talk about it, we’ve already talked about it a little bit,” Jason continued. “And I’m sure he’s going to go through a process of figuring that out.”

When Will Travis Kelce Retire? What He’s Said About a Possible NFL Exit

As the speculation about his NFL future continues, Jason hinted that Travis “probably, in his heart, already knows what he wants to do.”

“We’re very similar people, but we also have different ways of thinking about things. And sometimes I can way overanalyze situations, and my brother has this way of being like, ‘Hey man, you want to play or you don’t want to play,'” he explained. “He’ll say something like that where it’s just like, ‘Don’t worry about all of these minor things.’ And nine times out of 10, he’s right about all of it.”

Travis has been a top-performing player since being drafted by the Kansas City Chiefs in 2013. Throughout the 2024-2025 NFL season, however, the tight end struggled to make his usual impact.

“I used to get really, really pissed off and almost lose my cool a lot of the time from not having that success knowing I demand that out of myself. I just like to play the game to such a high level of accountability that it’s tough for me to deal with me being mediocre or having stats that represent that,” he said on the Kelce brothers’ “New Heights” podcast in September 2024, admitting that he “stopped caring about stats about four or five years ago.”

Instead of focusing on the numbers, Travis said, “I just went out there and started to play free and play for my guys. Sure enough, I think that’s the better mentality. You think about it more play by play and what your job is on that specific play.”

By the end of the season, the Chiefs had the opportunity to make history with a third consecutive Super Bowl victory — but the result wasn’t what they hoped for. With Travis’ girlfriend Taylor Swift looking on, the Eagles won Super Bowl LIX 40-22 earlier this month in New Orleans.

What the Sports World Has Said About Travis Kelce's Potential Retirement

Travis told reporters after the game that the Chiefs “couldn’t get it going offensively,” congratulating the Eagles on their victory.

Quarterback Patrick Mahomes, meanwhile, was asked whether he thought Travis would hang up his helmet. “I’ll let Travis make that decision on his own,” he said in a post-game interview.

The Chiefs reportedly gave Travis until March 14 to make his choice. During the Super Bowl recap episode of “New Heights,” Jason encouraged his brother to take his time before settling on his final decision.

“I think I owe it to my teammates that if I do come back, it’s gonna be something that it’s a wholehearted decision and I’m not half-assing it,” Travis said on the podcast. “I’m fully here for them and I think I could play, it’s just whether or not I’m motivated or it’s the best decision for me as a man, as a human, as a person to take on all that responsibility.”

Pat McGrath Labs x Candy Crush Saga’s Collab Comes With $10K Surprise

Dive into a sugar-spun beauty frenzy with the new Candy Crush Saga x Pat McGrath Labs collaboration, a decadent (and delicious) collection that launches on Thursday, February 27.

Among the limited-edition lipsticks, glosses and nail polishes is a Willy Wonka-worthy hidden surprise — not a golden ticket, but a 22-carat gold $10,000 BASLIQ ring with diamonds, rubies and sapphires. In a playful twist, three rings have been scattered amongst online orders.

According to Pat McGrath, Founder and CEO of Pat McGrath Labs, this dazzling twist only amplifies the lineup’s enchanting allure. “Beauty should always be an adventure,” McGrath told Us Weekly exclusively.

She continued: “This collection is all about joy, play and opulence — and now, three lucky individuals will unwrap a truly one-of-a-kind treasure. How divine is that?”

Crafted initially as gifts for McGrath’s inner circle, including supermodel Alex Consani and influencer Tefi Pessoa, the rings are made to elegantly encircle the MatteTrance lipstick bullets. But now they will land in the hands of three shoppers, turning every purchase into a potential jackpot.

Meanwhile, Consani, 21, and Pessoa, 33, are already urging future shoppers to meticulously check their packages while hyping up the high-stakes beauty treasure hunt before it’s game on.

“Pat McGrath Labs and Candy Crush teaming up? It’s the kind of unexpected collaboration I live for,” Pessoa shared exclusively with Us. “Makeup is supposed to be playful and fun anyway! It’s beauty, nostalgia and a little bit of drama, because, of course, a $10,000 diamond ring had to go missing!”

Pessoa added: “Did I mention I love drama? I love drama. This collab is pure indulgence, wrapped in diamond-encrusted chaos, and I am obsessed.”

Consani also loves drama, but the kind that comes in the form of a statement lip (specifically, MatteTrance lipstick in Divine Rose). “Pat McGrath x Candy Crush is a fab twist on my favorite everyday iconic colors from her!” the model said. “She knows how to make things iconic, hence the ring! Mother knows!”

 

Indeed, there is more than makeup magic up for grabs, as now with every purchase of MatteTrance Lipstick on PatMcGrath.com, anyone has a chance to uncover a diamond surprise if you can find it.

But even if you can’t, the collection has more surprises in store, as the lineup is filled with six limited-edition products that are inspired by the game’s bold colors and McGrath’s signature artistry.

For the first time, Elson is also being offered as a nail lacquer. It’s one of two long-lasting polishes; the second is Gold 001, a metallic masterpiece inspired by Pat’s original Lab.

Get your shimmer fix with LUST Gloss in Astral Flashdance or Bronze Venus to drench lips in balm-like hydration and high-wattage shine. Take it from “Mother McGrath,” as she’s affectionately known, who said it’s the “ultimate lip candy” with “everything you need for a dazzling, oh-so-glossy look that’s irresistibly divine.” (And Mother knows best.)

Considering her previous collabs have sold out in seconds, get ready to crush it when the limited-edition Candy Crush Saga x Pat McGrath Labs collection drops on Thursday, February 27 via PatMcGrath.com, followed by a March 3 launch on Sephora.com and a wider release at Nordstrom in March. May the beauty drop odds be ever in your favor. 

'Welcome to Plathville': Get to Know the Plath Family

Welcome to Plathville introduced viewers to Barry and Kim Plath and their nine children when the reality show premiered on TLC in November 2019.

According to the series description, the couple’s kids — Ethan, Hosanna, Micah, Moriah, Lydia, Isaac, Amber, Cassia and Mercy — “have never had a soda, don’t know who Spider-Man or Tom Brady is and have never watched TV.” They live remotely in rural Georgia and “follow their own [set of] rules” from Kim and Barry. However, things between the relatives began to change as many of the children grew up and explored avenues that were once forbidden.

Not every member of the family is as willing to share their life with the world, though. Moriah explained exclusively to Us Weekly in August 2021 why Hosanna is not on the show.

“She got married at a young age and moved off with her husband and started her life somewhere else,” Moriah said. “And she didn’t want to be on the show, and we were kind of all just, like, yeah, I mean, it’s her life. … Sometimes we keep in touch to some extent, but it’s also, like, she’s across the country and, you know, it would just be a hassle and she doesn’t want to be on the show.”

Kim filed for divorce from Barry in June 2024, two years after they announced their split after 24 years of marriage. In court docs obtained by Us at the time, Kim asked for primary custody of their three minor children, demanded that Barry pay child support and requested equal separation of their “marital property” and “marital debts.” Their date of separation was listed as December 23, 2021.
