In the modern world, it is important what first impression the interlocutor will have after meeting you. That is why we consider one of the images - a dress with a jacket. If a few years ago a jacket under a dress was perceived only as part of the business style of clothing, now everything has changed dramatically.
Varieties of jackets
Fashion is fleeting, but even with the fast changing trends we see at fashion shows, the basic variations remain the same. Dresses with a jacket are one of the permanent and already favorite combinations in women's fashion. So, what are the types of jackets?
They can be classified by style. Classic (straight) cut or fitted, with short sleeves, an elongated or short jacket. Also a novelty of recent years are dresses with a sleeveless jacket. The latter variety is very popular among young people and, when combined correctly, creates a stunning look.
Materials
Many options are now available in stores. But first of all, it is worth deciding what season the item is bought for. That is what the choice depends on. In the warm season, it is worth considering blazers made of cotton, knitwear,linen and denim. These are rightfully the most popular content.
Tweed jacket is perfect for winter. Tweed is often used to make classic models, it has a dense structure and holds its shape perfectly. Woolen ones are also popular. They have a lot of advantages, but at the same time their high cost can scare away. However, there are varieties of wool jackets that incorporate the addition of satin or silk.
For the off-season, you can advise a flannel jacket. The fabric is quite dense, but thin. It is pleasant to the touch, smooth and soft. Early spring and late autumn are the most comfortable temperatures for this type of fabric.
Colours
There are no clear restrictions on what a jacket and what dress should be. But it is important to consider the compatibility of things. A tweed jacket and a light chiffon dress will look ridiculous together. And, for example, a knitted black dress with a denim jacket is great.
Color, first of all, should depend on the style that is planned for release. In the office, it is better to choose classics - white, black, gray. Universal colors can be combined with each other, which will add variety. Of course, it should be borne in mind that, for example, an image completely made of black things will visually make the silhouette slimmer. White brings freshness, but can sometimes make the owner stand out from the crowd.
You can mix styles for a walk. Try wearing a light gray long sleeveless blazer with a fitted multicoloreddress. You will see how it will add zest to your image.
On a date, it is recommended to stick to a romantic look with an appropriate color scheme.
There are no exact rules on how exactly you need to dress for a particular event, so there is always the opportunity to experiment with color and fabric combinations.
When choosing the right tone for a jacket or dress, you should take into account the color type of the appearance. For a clearer explanation, an example can be given. The gray color is ideal for a fair-haired, pale-faced girl of the "summer" type, but does not adorn the black-haired "winter" representative at all.
What to wear?
For a harmonious image, it is not enough to choose a style and arrange colors. It is also important what you put on your feet. What accessories will you choose? A jacket under a dress in summer can be worn with sandals or pumps. Ballet shoes will only look appropriate if you decide to take a long walk.
For a more daring style, consider wearing the dress with sneakers. The following combination is especially popular: an elongated jacket, a dress below the knee and sneakers / sneakers. A small backpack will fit perfectly.
Office style gives less variation with shoes. Dresses with a jacket and shoes are considered a classic option. Boots should only be considered as a last resort.
Accessories
Jewelry can harmoniously fit into the image and add a unique charm, or they can bring elements of chaos and bad taste.
About shoes wasmentioned above, but do not forget about this element of the wardrobe. Ballerinas and shoes will create completely 2 different looks.
The bag can be neutral in color. But if you have a strict business suit, then a bright bag will cheer you up and allow you to beat the image very competently.
