THIS POST WAS WRITTEN IN PAID PARTNERSHIP WITH FEMME LUXE
Autumn 2019 saw the rise of the humble shacket. They seemed to be every fashion influencer's fall style essential! Popular in both mens and womens clothing lines, and as much a feature of designer runways as they were on the high street, the shacket has made a big return in 2020 as well. But what actually is a shacket and how should you be jumping on the trend this season?
Well, you probably don't need me to explain to you that the the term “shacket” simply stands for “shirt jacket." They are ideal layering pieces: they're a little thicker than your average button-down shirt but not quite so warm as a jacket. Think of the shacket as the perfect autumnal equivalent of your favourite summer denim jacket. Stick a long-sleeve tee underneath and a coat on top and you've got a really cosy outfit! Shackets make for effortlessly cool (and practical!) weekend wear and so today, I'm here to share how I've styled my favourite shacket from Femme Luxe on an autumnal Saturday. Let's get started!
The Shacket
Pink isn't a colour that I usually gravitate towards, but when I spotted this checked shacket on the Femme Luxe new in page, I just had to grab it! Although it had already sold out in my usual size when I came to place my order, the oversized fit meant that I could size up without causing the item to dwarf my frame. As has become customary with my Femme Luxe orders, I was really impressed by the quality of this piece.
The metal popper fastenings are really sturdy and the material is thick and soft. It has real pockets too, which is always a treat with women's clothing! The shacket is definitely versatile as well - I chose to dress it down here for a really casual look, but with a pair of black jeans and heels, this could easily be elevated for an evening out at the pub. I'm really excited to keep wearing this shacket throughout autumn!
