The hottest trend to grace our stores is the shacket - But what is it? Women's shackets are the incredible fusion of a shirt and a jacket. It combines the features of a button front and collared neckline from a shirt with the thicker material and pockets from a jacket. From spring to summer, or autumn to winter, shirt jackets are the perfect layering piece during any season and transitional weather.

Shackets aren't just plaid! They're available in a huge variety of textures, fabrics and colours. You can get a shacket in the classic flannel, wool, cord, leather and more! As well as a large range of shapes and patterns, like an oversized shacket, longline shacket, check shacket, plaid shacket, or cinch in the waist with a belted shacket. Great for every wardrobe, a shirt jacket is trendy, super comfy and versatile!

Need some outfit inspiration? Whether you’re going out with friends or just running some errands, here are some outfit ideas of what to wear under a shacket:

• How To Wear a Shacket - Opt for a classic outfit by styling plaid shackets with a graphic tee, distressed jeans and white sneakers. Or have some some fun with your outfits by wearing a shacket in a fun colour like green, pink, or blue!
• How To Wear a Shacket with Jeans - Whether your jeans are high rise, wide leg, ripped or cropped, shackets and jeans are an outfit go to! Match a shirt jacket with a white tee or singlet and your favourite blue jeans to exude ultimate laid-back street style.
• How To Wear a Denim Shacket - Like any denim jacket, a denim shirt jacket offers a variety of styling options. Experiment with different textures and looks by wearing it with leather trousers and combat boots, or play around with plaid patterns!
• How To Dress Up a Shacket - While shackets usually have a casual vibe, you can also style a shirt jacket with elevated pieces, like dresses, skirts and heels to dress it up - effortlessly taking it from day to night.
• How To Style an Oversized Shacket - Pair oversized shackets with a tighter fitting number like a bodycon dress, skinny jeans or leggings to balance the look. Or enhance the oversized style, by wearing it with wide leg pants or baggy jeans and chunky boots.
