How To Rock a Denim Jacket!

Hey Girls,

Today post is all about shelf life of the normal fashion trend, the one item that never really goes out of style is the denim jacket, and it’s probably because there are so many different ways to wear a denim jacket. A denim jacket is perfect for virtually every body type.

The ways to wear a denim jacket are countless, but here are a few tips.

      1.  KEEPIN’ IT CASUAL

Nothing says "I’m approachable" quite like a traditional denim jacket. A denim jacket is a wardrobe staple it doesn’t overwhelm an outfit like other items might. Personally, I am not a fan of  wearing it, However if you really want to try it out, pair up a washed out denim jacket a plain black or white t-shirt with a pair of solid dark denim or a colored jeans. If you are feeling daring choose a bold red jean, a muted salmon or coral pant, but avoid using the same color pant as the jacket.
 
2.   WHITE WASH

When most people think of denim, their mind automatically goes to blues, but what about white denim? A white jean jacket is something every woman should have on standby next to her LBD and red heels. You can’t really go wrong with a white denim jacket mostly because it’s neutral like black and brown, which means it literally goes with everything and will definitely be your go to jacket when it comes to pairing it up with colored skinnies.
 
3.   MAX IT OUT & SHORTEN UP

Maxi dresses and maxi skirts are all the rage no matter what the season, but something that looks great with them is a short denim jacket — which gives a whole new take to the high-low trend. A short denim jacket is definitely something that depends on your body type. The average denim jackets cuts off at a natural waist, but if you have a slightly smaller waist or a larger bust the short denim jacket may end up making you look off balance and top heavy. Before making a purchase try out different lengths until you find out that you think best fits your curves.
 
 
4.   DRESS IT DOWN

Speaking of dresses, your standard denim jacket looks great over a patterned, knee length dress. Don’t be afraid to mix really girly pieces with harsher fabrics like denim and cowboy or combat boots. It gives the outfit a whole new twist rather than the predictable head-to-toe cutesy look. One trend that is great with this jacket is Aztec print dress, it tones the print down whilst giving the outfit a little bit of an edge – pair up with gold accessories and killer wedges for a more glamorous look.
 
 
5.   DENIM & LEATHER

If you want to go for an edgier look, then wear a denim jacket and slink into something leather. You can wear the jacket with a leather circle skirt, leather shorts or a pair of leather leggings. If you aren’t too keen about wearing actual leather, then you can always substitute the more common, less expensive faux leather. Together denim and leather will spice up any outfit, but if you want to brighten up this look then consider adding a solid bold color top or soften the look by pairing it up with a sheer blouse.
 
6.   A ROMPER’S BFF

Rompers or playsuits are the quintessential summertime get-up. Everything about a romper is  perfect for the summer time, The material is light like a sundress, but is more comfortable because you don’t have to worry about the wind blowing it up in the cooler weather when summer comes to an end. Slipping on a denim jacket — of your choice — completes the outfit in a more relaxed approach rather than a blazer, which is perfect for a breezy day.
