If there is something to add to your wardrobe this winter, it’s the shacket.
Yes you read that right, the shacket is our latest obsession when it comes to seasonal styling and you’re going to love it too.
A shacket is an oversized hybrid between a shirt and a jacket (obviously), and as they are usually made from cotton/wool blends they are the perfect transitional piece, especially in temperamental Australian weather.
Style it as a top layer on warmer days or layer under coats for some added cosiness. We could talk about the versatility of a shacket for hours, but instead, below we are looking at some of our very favourites on the market to shop this winter.
If you’re on the hunt for the perfect layering piece to add to your wardrobe this season, read on to find our top picks.
