Chic and casual box jackets for a feminine look

There are times when we choose our outfit and think “and what about a jacket? Which one now?” Well, at least it happens to me sometimes, so it’s just my opinion… For these occasions, I think of the “jacket of the moment”, it means, the Box Jacket. It’s unpretentious, with its uncomplicated elegance, timeless in fact. Now, re-styled to reach a more modern look, it comes with beautiful details, trimmings and new fabric textures. Choose your favorite!

Style tricks: because it has a square, short and a bit wide shape, it can make a whole outfit look a bit “chunky”. But you can avoid it by layering longer tops, wearing it with thin-waisted dresses, skinny jeans, medium to small bags and if yours has not so long sleeves,  you can show a beautiful and feminine bracelet to balance the whole look.

I confess I love jackets like the above shown ones. They’re so perfect for casual looks and can be elegant as well!
