Denim Days

Alright my babes, raise your hand if you are OBSESSED with denim. I mean denim everything. Denim has been in style for ages and it isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. I’m talking…since 1880!! If you ever want to hop on a trend that you won’t regret, investing in a good denim jacket is a great idea.

Denim is always a good idea. The denim jacket trend has been around for a VERY long time, but sometimes it can be hard to know exactly how to style this trend. There are so many different styles of denim jackets too, making it hard to decide which one is right for you. With the boyfriend denim, the girlfriend denim, the cropped, the well-fitted, the black, and now the fuzzy collar, picking a denim jacket that fits your personality and style can definitely be challenging.

If you ALREADY have a denim jacket in your closet, my challenge to you is to try to start styling it with things already in your closet. If you do that and you are just not in love with the way it looks, that is when you need to start looking for a new denim jacket. I have listed a few of my favorite denim jackets below if you are on the hunt!

My Favorite Denim Jackets:

I actually had a different denim jacket (you might remember it in a few other posts), but after trying to style it for an entire year, it just didn’t feel like me and wasn’t the vibe I was going for. So, instead of saving a buck on a jacket I didn’t fully love, I invested in a new denim jacket that I just adore! It also helps that my sister has an entire closet full of fun clothes, including this cropped denim jacket. This is perfect when I want to mix things up.

 

 

Styling Tips & Tricks

When it comes to styling a denim jacket into an outfit, it is important to first establish what look you are going for. Casual, athleisure, workwear, night out, etc. Once you have established the type of look you want, we can start creating an outfit.

I always like to keep the denim jacket as the center piece of the outfit. If I am wearing a dark wash denim pant, I will opt for a lighter wash denim jacket (dark wash jacket=light wash jeans). This contrast helps keep things stylish without looking like Britney Spears circa 2000. I really love paring a denim jacket (any color!!) with black or gray jeans. This way, you denim will never clash!

For shirts, I would opt for a classic silhouette. A plain tank top (white, black, gray, purple, etc) would look perfect under a denim. You can even have something with texture if you want to spice things up (leopard print is fun too!).

For shoes, this is where you can have some fun! If you want to stick to the neutrals, wearing a plain black, tan, or white shoe is always a classic. But, if you are sticking with plain colors for the entire outfit, you can spice it up wit ha fun leopard print heel, bright color stiletto, or fun ankle bootie!

To tie things up, I added a statement belt to tuck in my tank top. This outfit is so simple, but also such a classic. Add in some simple jewelry to complete the look.
