The Renegade Shacket: Cozy, Practical & Chic

The Renegade plaid flannel shacket (if you're new here, that's shirt + jacket = shacket) was an unexpected pleasant surprise. Having ordered it as a sample for the HFmercantile boutique, I had relegated it to the "wait and see if it's any good" pile to await further review. I'm happy to report that I was very pleasantly surprised by this piece; it's essentially the sartorial equivalent of wearing a very lightweight but cozy blanket; it's soft yet sturdy, casual yet unique and memorable, and as it turns out, a fantastic option to wear over a pair of stretchy leggings or jeggings on a long-haul flight. There really is no better trial run you can do with a garment than to wear it on a long travel day. If it comes out the other end looking good, it's a win in my book.
