Jackets have appeared for a very long time, initially being an attribute of only the men's wardrobe, making up a set with classic trousers that were not customary for women to wear. But over time and changes in fashion trends, jackets began to be popular among the fair sex.

Initially, the girls wore jackets only in a pair with a skirt, a little later with trousers, which made up a pair of suits with him. But, as mentioned earlier, fashion does not stand still and at present the jacket is used as a separate wardrobe item that lives an independent life. Let us consider in more detail the most popular models of jackets, as well as the most stylish images in combination with them.

What's this?

The tweed jacket is a classic British variant of the sports jacket, since the fabric like tweed is purely British in origin. Tweed is usually made in classic cuts and is often used as an outerwear option in cool weather, as tweed fabric has a characteristic coarse pile and a corresponding structure.

So your look will be discreet and elegant, and if you add light, sophisticated accessories, you can add a touch of romanticism to the image.

Properties and appearance of tweed

Tweed fabric has its origins in Scotland, where it was originally used exclusively for menswear. The fabric got its name from the river flowing in Scotland, where wool was washed, from which tweed was later made. It is a woolen fabric with a small pile.

Being a warm woolen material in its structure, tweed is used to make things that are quite suitable for use in cool weather as outerwear, for example, world-famous tweed jackets.

Models

Of course, among the abundance of fashionable clothes at the present time, designers have not bypassed jackets, developing new varieties of models. We present to your attention the most popular and stylish models of tweed jackets of this season, which no fashionista will pass by.

English style

The English style is a classic option for a jacket, usually with a single or double breasted collar. In addition, the classic English model, fastened with three or more buttons, is quite popular this season. Such a jacket can be either a standard length, or elongated, or shortened, and it will still look stylish and fashionable.

It is worth noting that such a model of a jacket is suitable for both slender girls and owners of magnificent forms, especially if it has a slightly loose cut.Which, by the way, is quite rare, since the English style is characterized by strict fitted jackets.

With elbow pads - patches on the elbows

Elbow pads for jackets have been used for a long time, although earlier they were exclusively functional in nature, protecting the elbows of the jacket from rubbing the fabric, and jackets with elbow pads were most often popular with hunters and fishermen. Later, over time, and changing fashion trends, almost everyone began to wear such a jacket, because people quickly realized that this thing, in addition to its functionality, also has an attractive appearance.

A tweed jacket with elbow pads can be combined with many things, for example, with turtlenecks, blouses, shirts and even regular T-shirts, it will look stylish and sophisticated in any case.

elongated

This model of a tweed jacket is especially popular in the cold season, as it covers the buttocks and is more functional. Among girls, it is most popular, because it can be used both as a jacket, which it is, and as a warm tweed trench coat.

Popular colors

Nowadays, the variety of color palettes in clothing is very large, since there are no restrictions at all in choosing one or another color. The only rule always and everywhere will be the appropriateness of the thing and its color in relation to any event. But it is worth noting that calm natural shades that are not conspicuous have recently been popular. Let us consider in more detail the most successful color combinations and color solutions in general.

Grey

Gray is ideal for a tweed jacket because it is one of a number of classic shades, but takes precedence over colors such as white and black. The white color can be too easily soiled for a jacket, which is not very convenient, since you will have to resort to cleaning quite often. Black color, although classic and fashionable at any time of the year, but it looks a little gloomy. Therefore, gray bordering between them will be the most suitable option.

Brown

This color has a very good, enviable quality, brown goes well with many other colors, mostly warm light shades, since brown itself is a warm color.

Blue

Blue color is one of the representatives of a number of classic colors, but its combination with others is not as great as in the case of black and white colors. And yet the blue color goes well with many light and dark shades. For example, blue and yellow make up a rather good refreshing combination. And also, all shades of green, purple and gray are perfect for blue.

Green

Green is quite a popular color because it is somewhat of a warm summer color and everyone wants to feel a bit of warmth in cool weather. The most popular shade of green in clothes is light mint, dark green, turquoise, some prefer malachite, but the main thing is to combine them correctly with other colors.

Beige, nude, cream, as well as all shades of brown and ivory and champagne are perfect for all of the listed shades.

Beige

Beige is a calm warm shade and does not tolerate combination with bright colors, because it immediately gets lost in it and does not quite fit into the image. Therefore, we advise you to combine a beige cardigan with light shades that are as warm as he is. For example, ivory, light lemon, light peach.

What to wear?

Any fashionista knows that every outfit should be in place. And jackets are no exception, since not all models will be appropriate for a particular situation. So let's figure out in more detail what to wear with what and where.

With trousers

With trousers, a tweed jacket is ideal, just below the waist, fitted cut, with a double-breasted collar and a fastener with two main buttons, having two more decorative ones. The image will be very stylish and elegant.

With a skirt

In combination with a skirt, you can use the same jacket that is suitable for trousers, since it will look good in both options. In addition, you can use an elongated version, which in its appearance resembles a trench coat and is more functional in keeping warm.

With jeans

As for jeans, you don’t have to worry too much, because they will go well with absolutely any model of a jacket.
