One of the most classic and versatile pieces a girl can have in her closet is definitely a denim jacket. It can change the feel to any outfit it’s combined with for a more relaxed looked and it works well with nearly anything you wear. Need we say more about this piece?
If you find yourself wanting to dress down a look with a denim jacket but not sure how, try out some of these tips.
Pair it with a dress or long maxi skirt. This combination is a classic way to get away with wearing a dress that may seem too over-the-top for daytime due to length, silhouette, or print. It instantly brings the dress down a notch especially if you refrain from buttoning the jacket up.
Shoes and accessories. Both of these will automatically dictate where your look is going. To create a more relaxed daytime look, pair the denim jacket with some loafers or sneakers. As far as accessories go, keep it simple as too much shine can go against the point of wearing the denim jacket in the first place.
The type of wash should be taken in to consideration. For a daytime look, light and medium wash works best as it gives the whole look a lighter feel. Light wash looks great with nude or light taupe colored clothing and medium goes great with anything a bit darker and prints.
