How a denim jacket is a wardrobe staple.

Your denim jacket is your wardrobe staple.

You are never to old to wear a denim jacket and they are a staple in your wardrobe. I have a traditional blue denim one, a red patterned one, a peach one and I just bought one in cream. They never go out of fashion, so you are always on trend.   I am looking forward to wearing mine again and the new cream one on holiday as it will go with everything. Read on for some ideas of how to wear your denim jacket.

First, I bought a light denim jacket which I have had for many years and comes out of the wardrobe every spring. A few years ago, I bought a peach coloured one in the Next sale. At the end of last summer, I bought a red one with a snake print in the material. This one I had at the end of the season so looking forward to finding some creative ways of wearing it. The new cream one to wear over my summer clothes on my cruise next month.

Ideas on how to wear your denim jacket

This is what springs to mind when you say denim jacket. It is one of the original styles which they are still making today. I love this look over a skirt or dress and white trainers. It makes the dress more casual.

As the weather gets colder it can be worn with a jumper on top of your dress with the jacket on top. Or a hoodie or sweatshirt over jeans or a skirt, warm tights and boots to complete the look. You can also get these denim jackets in winter versions that are fur lined if you like this look. In the winter I wear my leather biker jacket to get a similar look.

Denim jackets in the summer.

This denim jacket is white but comes in many colours. Choose a white one if you have a cool skin tone and cream if you have a warm skin tone. This can be your go to summer jacket, and it will be in your wardrobe for many years to come. These jackets are available everywhere but Next and Marks & Spencer had a good range. This one is from Next and comes in a variety of colours

These jackets look great over all your summer clothes, dresses, skirts, shorts, and all your various trousers. They are available in lots of different colours and styles the choice is yours if you are a young lady, you might prefer the cropped version. I would suggest that you go up a size so you can wear a jumper underneath on the cooler days.

 

 

Dark Denim Jacket.

Here is a different style jacket which is longer in the length which may suit certain body shapes allowing you to wear longer tops underneath.  This boxy style works well with a curvy figure and size up and you will be able to wear a hoodie or jumper underneath. The trousers are a wide leg to balance out the look. This particular jacket is from Marks & Spencer and retails at £45.00 and comes in this dark indigo colour.
