With the winter season on, the jacket remains an essential piece in your wardrobe, because you are literally taking it everywhere with you, whether you’re a shacket fan or a coat type of woman.
However, things get tricky when you’re shifting from the cozy and comfy loungewear on to a nice and elegant dress and questions start running in your head: Which jacket is suitable? Do I go for short or long? What color? And so on.
The answer to your question depends on the style you’re opting for, but we will be giving you the options and how to wear them and you’ll play the styling game next time you choose a dress and jacket combination.
If you’re wearing a mini-dress, an oversized blazer with the same height or even a bit longer with some high knee boots can be the perfect combination. If the dress in a midi, you can still go for an oversized blazer, just opt for a longer one, just like Saudi TV presenter and influencer Fozaza styled her look. You can go for a monochromatic look and opt for an elegant and casual vibe.
Long dresses can be tricky when styled with a jacket, but you can never go wrong with a short jacket, especially a denim one. Dubai-based Lebanese fashion blogger Tamara Farra gave us a hint on the long dress x denim crop jacket.
If you’re on the more elegant side of the dress and jacket combination, you can go for a long and oversized coat with a Chanel touch for extra chicness and elegance with the logo tights like in the Bosnian fashion and beauty blogger Tamara Kalinic’s outfit. And if you’re opting for a more casual vibe, then style it with high-knee lug sole boots and you’ll be ready for an office day, mall cruise day or a casual lunch.
