A ‘Shacket’ promises to be the most versatile fall weather essential
BY DEVKI BHATT
With blurring boundaries between our work life and home life, there is an obvious need for versatility when it comes to choosing wardrobe-essentials. Investment pieces that make a smooth transition for a lifestyle in flux. An oversized shirt and a jacket hybrid, most commonly known as the ‘Shacket’, proves to be the perfect investment piece for this fall. Paired with jeans and a shirt or layered over a slip dress, this shirt-jacket hybrid elevates your outfit yet provides the perfect layer for those not ready to fully commit to a jacket just yet.
Leather effect
Apart from the luxurious feel of the fabric, leather shackets are a great way to take an outfit from day to night.
Plaid print
Giving a touch of casual-cool touch to a pair of denim, plaid shackets make a perfect fall look.
Pocket detailing
A basic oversized shirt with not-so-basic pockets. Giving an otherwise simple shirt an edge, enlarged pockets are a great way to add a little bit of detailing that takes the look a long way.
The belted
A figure accentuating belt makes a great addition to the shacket. Wear it with a turtleneck and a pair of flared trousers for a perfect work look or over a pair of skinny jeans for a night out.
Fun with prints
Adding a little play to your look, these printed shirts add a touch of color along with a whole lot of character.
