Why 'shackets' are the hottest trend this autumn

OK so I think we can officially say it is autumn.

Is anyone else freeeeeeeezing after the weather took a nosedive, dropping from 22C to 10C literally overnight.

The only problem, cold as it is, is that it is not yet sheepskin/faux fur coat weather so we really needs a transitional cover-up which corresponds with the weather.

And chances are you will find it in one of this season’s biggest trends – the shacket.

It is a cross between a shirt and jacket and it is exactly what we need for this time of year.

If you are on Instagram you have probably already seen your favourite fashion blogger wearing one as they are EVERYWHERE.

You can stick it on over pretty much every outfit as it is, put it under a lighter coat for layering and if it gets too warm you can channel you inner 90s girl group member and tie it round your waist.

There is an abundance of them on sale right now in shops and online and here are some of our favourites...

If you like the lumberjack look, then these will be right up your high street as Zara, H&M and Topshop have a treemendous selection. Off you go, Gironimo!

We're also loving tweed and pastel shackets for a more laid-back look during the day and also this silver sparkler for when, or should that be if, we ever get a night out again!
