How To Style A Shacket
When it comes to investing in a shacket, I like to reach for one that’s a little less mainstream, something with personality. And I love a dark wash for that added touch of sophistication.
Heading out for the night or off to a fancy lunch?
Don’t underestimate the power of the shacket. Sure, it’s perfect over a tee and jeans, but it’s so much more than a casual layer.
It’s technically a jacket, so treat it like one! Try throwing it over a dress.
It instantly takes the edge off and makes something dressy feel relaxed and effortless.
Bonus: because shackets are lighter than traditional jackets, they won’t add bulk. That means more styling options, not less.
You can even tuck one into a pair of stunning, tailored pants for a layered, elevated look that still feels easy.
Double or triple denim, perhaps? Go for it!
Another styling trick that will make anyone look longer and leaner is by wearing the same colour in one continuous silhouette (a good reason why I love sets so much).
Try this: wear an all light neutral outfit underneath a darker shacket or vice versa under a light shacket.
Not only does it streamline your shape, but it also lets your shacket take centre stage.
Choose a pattern, print, or bold colour for your shacket that contrasts with what’s underneath, and suddenly, your outer layer becomes the statement piece without overpowering you.
Simple. Effective. And effortlessly stylish.
