A denim jacket (for me) is synonymous with childhood. I wore them in various washes and styles throughout the 80’s. My favorite fad was adding an assortment of pins to my cherished denim. I thought I was so cool! Times have changed and fashion has evolved but a basic denim jacket is here for the long haul.
I may sound like a broken record when I refer to closet staples. The repetitious use of “versatile” may be like nails to a chalkboard at this point. I apologize in advance for my redundancy, but fashion makes me giddy. If you buy nothing else this season, promise me you will purchase a denim jacket. It really is one of the most essential and key components of your Spring/Summer/Fall wardrobe.
All of those dresses, tees, rompers, and tanks in your closet are calling your name. Warmer weather is finally upon us. As great as they look independently, pair them with a denim jacket, and your look has gone from stylish to fashionably unblemished in seconds. Denim jackets are the layering piece of the season. I can’t think of an outfit they won’t transform. They are functional too. They keep you warm on chillier nights without sacrificing an ounce of style. They look equally good tied around your waist or even over your shoulders for that uber chic finishing touch.
I recommend having both darker and denim washes on hand, but was particularly drawn to this lighter wash. I wear a lot of softer hues and pastels, so I knew this jacket would be very complimentary. The best part: it’s under $40!
Throw on your denim jackets and integrate a little nostalgia into your fashion this season. Even dare to throw on a few pins as homage to some of the best years of our lives!
