There’s a new wardrobe hero this season, a piece that literally offers the best of both worlds: the shacket. Because it’s a lightweight jacket-button-up shirt hybrid, this versatile topper is the added layer you need when it’s cool but not cold in fall (or spring), or when your winter outfit could do with an extra dose of non-bulky warmth.
Just how versatile, you ask? Well, we’ve seen some of our favorite babes wearing this plaid shacket a slew of stylish ways. They’ve worn it open over turtleneck sweaters, buttoned it up with denim jackets, and paired it with everything including vegan leather leggings, distressed jeans, and even a coordinating skirt.
Yep, the shacket is a transitional topper that goes the distance, making for outfits that go from cozy-rugged to sexy-sophisticated. (Expect to see the overshirt/jacket under cold weather coats, too.) Ahead, check out eight ways to wear this MVP that will inspire all your layering outfits this season.
Wear your shacket buttoned up with black vegan leather extras for an edgy ’90s look. Of course, tying a denim jacket around your waist seals the deal.
