I was looking through J Crew‘s website this morning, looking for some fashions to add to the COVERINGS site and my eyes behold the most fantabulous tweed jacket EVER! When I think of tweed, I think of a polished conservative look, but this new Casette-tweed Marcel jacket from J Crew makes wearing tweed look young and hip. The jacket is part tweed jacket, part cropped motorcycle jacket.
The cut of the jacket keeps it within the confines of the traditional tweed jacket, complete with 3/4 length sleeves. What gives it its modern twist is the casette-tweed fabric used, straight from the couture fiber mills of Italy. Seriously, get this jacket while you can because with it’s only a matter of time before this haute look is sold out.
*How to wear this look: Pull on a pair of khaki bermuda shorts, thin belt, white tee, and layered jewelry. Wear a pair of patent leather peep toe heels, or a pair of wedges to complete the look for summer.
