The shirt jacket – or shacket – is the transitional jacket of dreams. Part jacket, part shirt, it’ll answer all your style needs as it was made for layering over loungewear, tees and spring dresses too. Chilly spring morning? Grab your shacket and go! It's a spring fashion essential, if you ask us.
Since the shacket trend exploded on the high street, it’s graduated from traditional checked or beige shacket to shackets in shearling, jersey, cord, boucle, brights and leather too. From H&M to New Look, shop the best shackets on the high street…
