3 Ways to Style a Shacket
Any shacket lovers out there? I’m a little late to the bandwagon, but better late than never! It took me so long that my dad actually beat me to it 🤣
I recently got this French terry shirt jacket from Red Dress for Christmas that I’ve been wearing all throughout winter, and most certainly will be wearing it again all throughout next fall and winter. They’ve sold out super fast in every size but there is still one left in a large, and there’s also a very similar one that Red Dress just released! Not only is it great for the colder seasons but also perfect for transitioning into springtime weather! Since shackets (just a cooler way to say “shirt jacket” 😁) are super trendy in the fashion world at the moment, I thought I would share a few of my three favorite ways to style mine.
Aside from this post, I also shared a fun reel on Instagram with music on how to style this particular shacket as well!
Faux Leather chic
When I first got this shacket and thinking about how I was going to style it, faux leather leggings was the first thing that popped in my head! I’ve had this pair for over three years, but I definitely live in them pretty much every single winter season. I love pairing these pieces with this knit crop top (another oldie but goodie from Knot Sisters!), along with this gold chain link necklace from Altar’d State and gold multi-hoop earrings from Francesca’s for a touch of spunk. I also got this pair of white boots by Marc Fisher for Christmas, and they match PERFECTLY with this whole look! They certainly were made to pair with the shacket!

90s Meets Present Day
Everything about this look definitely gives me 90s vibes. The cropped mock neck top from Francesca’s, mom jeans from American Eagle, chunky black howler boots from Steve Madden, gold chunky hoop earrings from REVOLVE (which I like to call my Princess Jasmine earrings 🥰), hair jaw clips from Amazon and an oversized jacket, of course (or shacket in this case!). I was actually inspired by one of the outfits that Tyra Banks’s character wore in an episode of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. I love this outfit idea because it’s so timeless and fits into the trends that are currently relevant. Some things from the past just never go out of style!

Dressin’ Up
I just recently ordered this sweatshirt dress from Red Dress and it fit even better than I was anticipating! I’m just eagerly waiting till it gets warmer outside so I can wear it more often lol. However, pairing it with the shacket makes a casual but dressy look for a fun winter outfit, especially with black high-knee boots and gold jewelry. This is a great outfit to wear to Sunday church service! I also think this outfit will be perfect to wear in the fall with a floppy hat, but I don’t want to think to far ahead because I want to enjoy spring and summer first 😂
The dress is actually only $18 right now and having its final sale, so make sure to snag it while you can if you really want it!
