How To Style Shearling For Men & Women
What Are We Wearing?
Coats are having a major moment in the fashion world and across our screens. A stylish, eye-catching piece of outerwear has become the latest statement piece to finish your looks. And they don’t have to come off once you’re inside. This week, I am diving into how to shop and select the perfect shearling style jacket for you or your partner and how to get the most wear out of our piece.
The cropped or motorcycle-style shearling jacket has quickly become a stand-in for the leather style we have seen over the years. It’s a structured look with unrivaled coziness, and a well-made version will last a lifetime. Considering the price, genuine shearling is expensive and typically starts over $1,000 for a jacket, but I have included some faux options that look just like the real thing if you’re not ready to make the splurge just yet. Short or cropped styles with fun trim and zipper details look best with casual to elevated denim, business casual, or date day/night looks.
A long, shearling coat is perfect for blisteringly cold days and nights. It looks beautiful over any casual look but also seamlessly accentuates a business suit, sweater or knit dress, skirt and boots, and other formal attire. If you want more coverage and warmth, this solid choice achieves a cozy feel with style and substance.
A fabulous shearling coat is a great gift idea for the guys. A sporty look for the weekend paired with a slim-leg chino, corduroy, or premium denim and his favorite cashmere or henley, and a suede loafer is a luxurious but comfortable take. Available in short and long styles, a shearling coat gives the full winter effect with style and warmth and is a nice departure from puffers and pea coats.
