Consider the jacket length to know which one works for you but the most common and classic length stops at your hip. Depending on your figure, you may look better in slightly longer or slightly shorter jacket lengths.

Jackets for women are a big part of their daily wears because of the versatility. They are nice and can make ladies look chic when matched properly with other outfits. They come in different sizes and patterns. Jackets can be worn with skirts, trousers, shorts or a gown. Wearing it is not the issue but getting the right style for your body figure is paramount to helping you achieve the ideal look. These few tips can be useful.

Tips:

Try different jackets until you find what works for you. Also consider the width. Sleeve should run close to your arm for a slim, sleek look.
Go for the appropriate size for you.

Choose colours that will complement your outfit. Let your personal taste reflect your choice of outerwear. Avoid styles that button up to the neck. Secure them in neutral solids such as black, dark brown, dark navy blue and beige, which work well with virtually everything you have in your wardrobe.

If you are wearing a coloured outfit, opt for a plain jacket to tone it down.
Depending on your style and the occasion, you can pair with flat pumps, sneakers, high or low heels.
