It’s too cold to wear your summer coat, but you melt in your winter coat. The sun may be shining in-between seasons, but it can be quite chilly outside. What do you put on? Well, say hello to the shacket! Shackets are as versatile as jeans and the perfect layering piece, but what exactly is so great about it? We tell you all about this trendy slightly oversized shirt-jacket hybrid and how to wear it.
What is a shacket?
A shacket is the love baby of a shirt and a jacket. The wool blend and leather styles make them thicker than an average blouse, but thinner than your winter coat. It has the looks of a shirt and the warmth of a coat. Shackets are the perfect solution when you look for an in-between-seasons coat that is cooler than a trench coat or a blazer.
What is so great about the shacket?
What’s so great about shackets? Well, they are the perfect layering piece through spring, fall and winter. They are thicker than your shirts, but not as thick as your winter coat and they are easy to layer over turtlenecks. Are you a shivery type? Then wear your shacket under your overcoat when temps drop. In the spring you wear your shacket over a lightweight T-shirt to look effortlessly cool.
Another great thing about shackets is their looks. They are so comfortable and go with everything. Shackets add coolness to garments such as your Little Black Dress, but they also make your jeans look even cooler than they already are. But the best part? They suit everyone. Do you want an easy and cool way to look on-trend? Consider a shacket! They come in different kinds of materials and patterns and plaid is the most popular one. Are you not into plaids? No worries! Just opt for a (faux) leather shacket, or a denim one. The choice is yours!
How to style a shacket?
You can wear your shacket anyway you want to. Just throw it on after you’re done working out at the gym. Are you going on a date with that nice guy you just met? A shacket will do the trick! The shacket always keeps you warm and looks trendy, but how do you wear it? We’ve found some options.
Style the shacket as an in-between seasons coat
It’s too warm to wear your winter coat, but too chilly to throw on your summer coat? Then wear your shacket as a coat in these temps!
Style the shacket as a cardigan
Are you looking for something that adds coolness to your looks? Then wear the shacket as a cardigan! A shacket looks cooler than a woollen cardigan, but is just as warm. A shacket also adds a cool twist to your fancy dresses. But there’s more! Shackets also look stunning when worn with a gorgeous shirt and great jeans.
Style the shacket as a blazer
A shacket is more loose-fitting and a bit warmer than a blazer. You can easily replace your blazer for a shacket, since shackets go well with business suits. They add a sporty twist to your office-wear and are a great choice to wear to the office. Shackets are very comfy and look super cute, whether you’re at the office or at home.
Style the shacket as a winter coat
Even in the winter you can swap your winter coat for a shacket. It’s perfect to wear on warmer wintery days, but you can still wear your shacket when temperatures drop. Layering is the magic word! Wear your shacket over a nice, thick jumper and throw on a woollen scarf. We bet you won’t get cold!
