Denim jackets are a staple piece of many wardrobes and if you are like most women, there is a high possibility that you have one in your closet. Many believe that these clothing items are practical and functional, but are only to be worn on casual occasions. However, there are many different ways to wear a denim jacket, numerous outfits that can be created, and this applies for dressier occasions as well. Let’s take a look at how denim jackets can create the perfect outfit and complement a variety of styles and looks.
Casual Style
Recently, pairing denim with denim has become popular, so if you are looking to try out this new fashion trend, here are some ideas on how you can do that.
Layer your jean jacket with a white, plain tee, and pair it with some boyfriend jeans to create a casual yet trendy look. You can create another perfect daytime outfit by combining a striped T-shirt and an indigo-hued jacket. Complete the look with a pair of skinny jeans, ballet flats, and a textured scarf. These looks are quite comfortable and are perfect for running errands or spending a relaxing day shopping.
Feminine Look
Wearing a slim-fitting jean jacket with a floral print skirt, makes you look approachable, yet feminine. You can complete the outfit with a pair of high heels, making it great for a first date. Mini or maxi dresses under jean jackets and with gladiator sandals make the perfect summer look. Not only that, exchanging sandals for a pair of heels or pumps will make it suitable for lunch or dinner with friends.
Edgy Rock Vibe
Another hot fashion trend is adding patches – an embroidered piece of cloth – onto your clothing. Popularized by the hippie movement in the ‘60s, and by the punk movement in the 1980s, patches have made a comeback and are as fashionable as ever.
Patchwork gives off an edgy and cool vibe, and the best thing about them is that you can make your own, custom patches and apply them to your jacket, creating a customized and unique item. You can click here to read more about how you can do this.
