Summer is almost synonymous with light clothing, inches dropping on your skirts and easy-breezy fits. But now is the time to break that notion and layer up! Don’t worry, we aren’t talking about jackets, but their cooler cousin — the shacket.
This ingenious amalgamation of a shirt and a jacket adds texture, colour and funky layers to your fits. Having the comfort of a shirt and the undeniable layering versatility of a jacket, the shacket is the newest kid on the block.
Here are our picks for shackets that you must try this season…

Oversized swag
Confused about how to style a shacket? Well, just get your hands on an oversized shirt! This is a great way to add contrast to your fits. Men can easily pair it with T-shirts while the ladies can layer it over bralettes and corsets.
