Lately I’ve spotted a lot of denim jackets around town. After borrowing my Mom’s for a little, I decided to give it back to her and buy my own. The denim jacket is perfect for any typical day, including brunch dates, a breezy beach day or a barbecue. My favorite look is the denim jacket on a casual day with black jeans, a t-shirt, and sneakers. It can be a staple item in any woman’s wardrobe, which is why I encourage all women, of all age groups, to pull theirs out of the closet!
The denim jacket doesn’t have to be your standard blue jean. How about white, or a chambray blazer? Don’t be hesitant to play around with different shades of denim too. I recommend asking yourself which shade will go with most of your clothes. I’ve found that a lighter wash works best with my own wardrobe. Do you have a denim jacket? What is your favorite look with it? We love hearing our readers’ opinions!
Happy shopping!
