With the big chill creeping upon us, we are all thinking about wearing overcoats again. Many fashionable overcoats though are not designed to keep us super warm on the coldest of days. Jackets that provide extra warmth can be bulky and look cumbersome (such as puffas and skiing type jackets). I am a huge fan of doubling up with two jackets, one thinner underlayer (such as a jean jacket) and a main overcoat over the top.
It has always been considered fashionable to wear two jackets, and this season it’s hitting the high street in stores such as G-Star Raw. A jean jacket underneath a long overcoat is my favourite pairing although you can wear zipped outer jumpers, windbreakers, summer weight jackets and hoodies as well. It has the benefit of looking great and being highly practical. Wearing two jackets will definitely keep you warm outside, whilst you can choose to wear the thinner jacket inside. In winter it can be quite cold in some museum, galleries and restaurants and so it is very useful to have a thinner jacket to wear.
You can choose to pair up two jackets of your choice, or alternatively some designer brands are offering jackets with an inside layer that can be zipped together. If you are choosing two jackets of your own choice, be careful that the colours do not clash or feel uncomfortable. A high collared under jacket always works well with a lapel overcoat.
