The UK is enjoying the last few days of summer, but people are bracing themselves for the autumn and winter months ahead.

Knowing what to wear in the transitional period can be difficult, especially when it comes to outerwear.

Our thick winter coats have us sweating in the sun, but lightweight denim jackets just don’t cut it on chilly evenings.

There is one stylish option that works well though – and it’s no secret, as searches for this item have increased by 1,000% month-on-month, on social-based shopping service LIKEtoKNOW.it.

Shackets – a happy medium between a shirt and a jacket – are proving popular and it’s clear to see why, as they are lightweight so the wearer will not overheat and they don’t look odd when paired with a summery ensemble to keep you just the right temperature.

Consumer shopping app LIKEtoKNOW.it has seen a surge in shoppers searching for faux leather, checked and long shackets.

H&M shackets in particular have been a huge hit in the last 30 days, as shoppers are snapping up the short and longer designs.

There are a whole host of shackets available to buy from high street stores, with different textures, designs, prints, colours and lengths, so you are bound to find something to suit your style.

Shackets are a versatile statement piece that can be worn over jeans and a T-shirt, or even thrown over a dress for a more casual style.

Plus, when the winter months set in you can layer them with a coat on top for extra warmth.

We have found a selection of the stylish garments to fill your wardrobes with.
