Why the woman’s jacket and coat?
Being such an essential layer for women’s clothing, it’s not unusual for women to have a few classic coats in their wardrobe that allow them to look their best at all times and stay cosy no matter the occasion.
There are dozens of different jackets and coat styles. Some jackets are worn for all occasions, while others are for once in a lifetime events. It’s best to have a variety of silhouettes available and to pick jackets that suit your style the best.
And today, women’s jackets and women’s coats are having their moment. They’re not just for the corporate environment and to dress up an outfit, but they’re present on the streets, worn at brunch with friends and worn on runways. The backbone of any stylish wardrobe, a jacket or coat can be the finishing touch to complete any chic or workwear ensemble. Coming in various styles and silhouettes, street-style stars favour oversized fits and take the trend into today’s office environment. Today, we’re channelling vintage houndstooth coats with gold detailings, layering graphic tees under box-cut blazers, and teaming them with denim and crisp white sneakers.
When it comes to putting an outfit together for your usual 9-5, that’s both stylish and fits the formal office dress code. It can be quite a challenge. It’s easy to embrace modern sensibilities with the classic fitted blazer worn over a flattering pencil skirt and blouse or teamed with a basic tee and A-line midi skirt and pumps. If you’re not a skirt-wearing kind of girl, rest assured, a tailored blazer and matching suit pants are a surefire way to elevate you from intern to supervising manager. Don’t forget to inject personality into your workwear attire by implementing a pop of colour with a scarf or heels or by layering a brightly coloured top underneath.
Wearing your favourite women’s coats as outerwear? There’s nothing quite like a faux fur-lined puffer jacket or a women’s bomber jacket to beat the chill. For romantic evening dinners, dress up your look with a chic cape, and for an ultra-sleek vibe, don an all monochrome outfit teamed with statement earrings for head to toe perfection. If you’re worried about the floatiness overpowering the look, you can easily define your silhouette by nipping the cape in with a wide leather belt and wearing super-fitting skinny jeans and calf-high boots too.
If you’re after the ultimate wardrobe all-rounder, the denim jacket and women’s leather jacket is universally acknowledged for transforming an outfit from feminine to edgy in no time at all. With a variety of fits, colours and styles to choose from, Forcast is bound to have one to suit your style.
Browse our wide variety of fashion-forward and classic women’s jackets that are guaranteed to be your go-to outerwear of choice when you’re running out the door to your job or your next event. Ready to embrace the extra layer with Forcast? Check out our best sellers and on sale items!
