When it comes to my fashion item wish list, the Chanel tweed jacket certainly ranks at the top.
With the sturdy tweed fabric and the simple yet elegant design, it’s such a darling piece that will never go out of style.
Luckily, ladies, we don’t have to wait until the day that we can afford the Chanel jacket!
With its popularity, there is a wide range of Chanel-style tweed jackets from all sorts of brands.
So the good news is, if you know how to style the tweed jacket, you can certainly look expensive and put it together on a budget!
That said, below are the 8 creative ways and 28 outfits to style if you wonder how to wear a Chanel-style tweed jacket!
Enjoy!
1. WEAR THE TWEED JACKET WITH JEANS FOR A CASUAL STYLE
If you just get your feet on a tweed jacket and want to take it easy, dressing down your jacket with jeans is a foolproof idea.
The casualness of the denim pants instantly subdues the formality of the outerwear and makes you look more approachable overall.
Despite the skinny jeans, the comfy wide-leg cuff pants are such a perfect choice for a go-to-errand day.
Team the tweed jacket with a simple high-neck top and nude chunky shoes, you just look effortlessly classy without looking too pretentious.
For a summer youthful look, it’s always flattering to pair an oversized blazer with a cami top and short pants.
Who said tweed jackets are only for fall and winter?
2. PAIR CHANEL STYLE TWEED COAT WITH TIGHT HIGH BOOTS
If pairing the tweed jacket with pointy heels looks too predictable for you, perhaps it’s time to spice up the look with the in-style thigh-high boots.
As a petite girl, please trust me when I say thigh-high boots make you look at least 4 inches taller.
They are ultra-flattering when it comes to creating a long-leg illusion.
Whether you pair the long or short tweed coat, make sure you have room to show a stripe of your thigh area for a put-together look.
Despite the classic black and white pairing, I must say I am obsessed with the white monochrome look right now.
Team the white tweed jacket with a monochrome sweater and skirt and pair it with warm-tone cream over-the-knee boots.
This look is just classy and crisp in just one color – can we all agree it deserves a 10/10?
3. BELT YOUR TWEED COAT UP FOR A CHIC LOOK
While people always go for the short jacket actually, a long Chanel-style tweed jacket is way more versatile than you thought!
With a belt, you can turn it into a lovely one-piece dress.
Of course, if you are a tall girl, that may not work for you but you can still belt it for a sculpted silhouette.
Or else, an elegant chain belt will do this job!
Either way, you just scream stylish and poised without looking too ordinary.
Whether you finish off the look with a pair of ankle boots or chic loafers, they are just equally flattering.
4. PULL OFF A HIGH STREET LOOK IN A TWEED JACKET
If you think it’s impossible to style a bucket hat with a Chanel tweed jacket, now you know it’s achievable!
For a laid-back high-street ensemble, we have to think out of the box.
For the top, a vibrant skull graphic tee can be an impeccable choice here.
If you want a bold look, pairing a smocked striped tube top can truly add a sense of rebelliousness to the look.
With a pair of chunky white trainers and a slouchy tote bag, this is how you look artsy in the classic tweed jacket.
5. GLAM UP YOUR TWEED JACKET IN SCHOOLGIRL STYLE
Some may think Chanel-style blazers are only for the sophisticated ladies and not for the young girls.
Well, not the case anymore! These days, tweed jackets are way more common and versatile to wear.
To look youthful in a tweed jacket, style your outerwear with a ribbon blouse and a short pleated skirt for a classic schoolgirl look.
For the footwear, feel free to pair it with the black Mary Jane with socks for a fun retro vibe.
As a gossip girl fan, I just can’t get rid of the schoolgirl fashion.
They may not be the daily wear but whenever I need a mood booster, this is the look I am gonna pull off!
6. EMBRACE PREPPY STYLE IN A TWEED JACKET
Fashion comes and goes, but the preppy style is here to stay.
Somehow, I just find structured silhouettes and neat outfits really attractive.
If you want to look posh in the simplest way, preppy fashion will not disappoint you.
That said, instead of wearing the oversized tweed jacket, opt for the figure-skimming one for a neat figure.
For the colors, opt for pastel or neutral tones like beige, dusty pink, white, peach, royal blue, and more.
For a summer look, instead of pairing the tweed jacket with denim shorts, try out khaki shorts with an upturned hem for a polished look. For footwear, there are so many for you to choose from.
My current favs are the Oxford shoes and riding boots – they just echo with the Chanel-style tweed jacket so perfectly.
7. ACCESSORIZE YOUR TWEED COAT WITH HATS
As Martha Sliter said, “A piece of magic is a hat”.
I just can’t agree with it more.
If you want to infuse an extra dose of style into your getup, wearing the right hat can certainly give the look a WOW factor.
To dress down the tweed jacket during the weekend, all you need is a boater straw hat and a pair of espadrilles flats.
As for a cool girl look, wearing a black jacket and skinny jeans may not be enough.
When in doubt, just throw yourself a faux leather baker boy cap to bring out the tasteful style.
8. WEAR THE TWEED CO-ORD SET FOR A PUT-TOGETHER STYLE
If you are a girl who does not have time to do all the mix and match in the morning.
Guess what, the tweed co-ord set can make you look put together in just 3 minutes!
From office wear to fine dining night, a co-ord set really comes in handy on every occasion.
All you need is a structured chain bag and universally flattering nude heels and you are ready to rock your day!
I don’t own many tweed sets but whenever I wear them, I just feel kind of empowered when I walk.
Who can relate?
