Every season, there’s a new “it piece” that your wardrobe just won’t do without. This season it’s the ultra-versatile, super-comfy jacket hybrid: the plus-size shacket. Crafted in a slightly oversized silhouette with a full button or snap closure, what makes a shacket not just a shirt is in the material. Usually, they come in a mid or heavy weight material—think wool blends or canvas twill. Also known as the “shirt jacket,” we love the inherent versatility in this easy layering piece. How do you wear a shacket, you might ask? Here are three styling ideas for rocking autumn’s must-have:
1.Go For Cabin Vibes: Even if you’re not escaping to a chic Airbnb nestled in the woods, you can get that cozy leaf-peeping vibe when you swap out your plus-size moto jacket and wear the shacket as your outer layer instead. What we love about it is an oversized fit, so you can bundle with a lightweight sweater or turtleneck underneath. Complete the look with a knit beanie, dark skinny jeans and hiking boots.
2.Bring Back The ‘90s (in the best way possible): Our Eloise Molly & Isadora plaid shacket gives us cool grunge vibes, thanks to the bold plaid print. Why not channel your inner rocker and wear it open with a scarf, layered over a cozy waffle knit? The distressed Acela jeans complete the look.
3.Make It The Centerpiece: Let your shacket be the standout piece in your #OOTD and wear it like a sweater with black pants. We love it belted to accentuate your waist or even half-tucked into a stretchy jean. Either way, expect compliments.
