Dressing down a tan suit jacket?
tl;dr: thinking about thrifting this jacket but would need to find ways to wear it casually. Fit check and recommendations welcome!
So I love thrifting (not just because I'm broke) and yesterday I saw this €30 jacket that I'm debating going back to purchase today. Suit jackets are a bit outside my comfort zone, but I want to broaden my horizons and I like the look of it!
The thing that's holding me back is that I can't justify spending money on a piece I wouldn't wear semi regularly, and I don't encounter a lot of formal opportunities in my life. So, I'm looking for ways to dress this down.
I feel like it being tan already makes it kinda casual for a suit, and I'm thinking the fit in the picture is... Fine? It's just what I had on when I was going to the thrift store, but to me it kinda gives "cool college professor".
I'd really appreciate a second opinion on the fit, and thoughts on other ways to dress down something like this. Like I said I'm very much not used to wearing suit jackets, so any recommendations would be very welcome.
Thanks in advance!
