Jackets and denim vests have been an invariable attribute of the wardrobe of every fashionista for several decades now. The rules for combining them with other clothes, styles, colors are changing. But the fact remains - such a thing remains a “must have” at any time of the year, and especially in the spring-summer season.
Not sure what to wear with a denim jacket? We will teach you! We bring to your attention the most fashionable combinations.
Denim jacket with a dress
These garments are perfectly combined with each other. Moreover, almost any dress can be worn in an ensemble with a denim jacket! Such a top will transform a simple discreet dress or become a worthy setting for a spectacular model.
There are absolutely no restrictions on the style. Wearing a strict sheath dress? Throw a denim jacket on top and finish the outfit with stilettos and a miniature clutch.
Prefer a sporty style? Then choose a short dress or an extended T-shirt. A cropped denim jacket or massive model will fit perfectly here. Shoes - sneakers or sneakers.
If you want to create such an image on a hot day, put on flat sandals. Maintain a sporty style - there should be no jewelry on the shoes!
A very touching image will help to create a combination of rudeness and airiness, which gives the ensemble of a denim jacket and thin dresses made of batiste, chiffon and other delicate fabrics.
The dress can be plain or have a pattern. But in the second case, it is important to observe one rule: only a small print is acceptable.
And one more important rule for combining “jeans” with dresses: if it is made of hard denim, the dress should be tight-fitting, if the jacket is made of soft fabric and fits snugly to the body, the dress should have a loose fit.
Denim jacket with a sundress
The advice given a little higher applies to the combination of a denim jacket with sundresses. For hippie style lovers who prefer free summer sundresses - maxi or just below the knee - it is better to combine denim jackets with light indigo or delicate gray tones with this outfit.
Plain sandals will complement such an ensemble, it is desirable that their color be lighter than the tones of the entire outfit. This image can be completed with pendants or pendants on leather ropes (just a few pendants will look especially impressive at once).
A wide-brimmed hat, rolled up sleeves of a jacket - and your hippie look is ready!
Feel free to experiment with the color of a denim jacket. Actual trends are not only all shades of blue and blue denim. In summer ensembles with a sundress, yellow, pink, purple, green denim jackets are permissible.
It will also be interesting to look in jackets made of combination fabric, where the sleeves and collar (or hood) are made of knitwear. The main thing in this outfit is the uniformity of the jacket. Knitwear and denim should be made in the same color.
Denim jacket with shirt
Despite the versatility of this garment, there are still some strict prohibitions. Among them is a combination of a denim jacket with a strict white shirt. It is completely inappropriate.
Jeans with a plaid shirt look perfect together. Especially effective is the combination of classic denim with red plaid. This image can be called an example of a classic casual style.
It is best to combine a denim jacket with sports-style shirts. Knitted polo-shirts fit perfectly.
A combination of a denim jacket and a shirt sewn from chambray will be no less winning. Only in this case should the shirt have a contrasting color with respect to the jacket. Better yet, have a small picture.
Denim jacket with jeans
We can say that this combination is considered traditional. We all well remember the time when jeans suits consisting of denim pants and jackets were in fashion. From that time, the craving for jeans "deuces" was entrenched in memory.
But today it is not at all necessary to combine the top and bottom of such an ensemble with only plain things. The texture, color, style, the presence / absence of a pattern - all this does not matter for a combination of denim jackets and jeans. The democratic fashion in this regard allows you to easily create a harmonious image from almost any component.
For example, we give this combination: a light blue jacket and dark blue jeans. From shoes, sneakers or sneakers are best suited here - the final choice depends on the style of the pants. If you still really want to finish this ensemble with heeled shoes, then give preference to concise “boats”.
A lot of variations to combine with a denim jacket give denim pants of such a fashionable style in recent seasons as “boyfriends”. These slightly narrowed to the bottom, but at the same time loose-fitting jeans look great with cropped jackets.
Contrast combinations are possible (light top and dark bottom, or vice versa). At the same time, the top should be a little snug, since such jeans are very massive.
Denim jacket with skirt
A skirt of a denim jacket is ideal for the skirts of most styles.
It will be possible to create a mischievous image for young girls by combining with a “jeans” a half-skirt or “tulip” with a knee length or slightly higher. You can also create a seductive outfit from a shortened jacket and a mini-skirt that fits your hips tightly.
A business pencil skirt can be a perfect match for a fitted jeans jacket.It is worth adding a blouse close to the office style, sandals with closed toes or classic pumps.
A straight and short denim jacket will suit a lush midi. It should be worn on a discreet top.
Maxi length sun skirts also go well with denim jackets. It’s good to create a vivid image here: a classic indigo jacket complete with a long flared skirt of flashy and trendy colors - fiery coral, rich peach, dark turquoise, deep coral or the color of Burgundy wine.
The charm of this ensemble is that the shoes here can be both high-heeled and flat soles. Both options will look equally advantageous, so it is only up to your mood or taste. Under the jacket, you should wear a top that will match the color scheme with the skirt, but will be lighter by several tones.
And of course, no one canceled the combination of a denim jacket and a denim skirt. The same rules apply here as with a combination of a jacket and trousers made of denim.
Choosing shoes
In ensembles where a denim jacket is present, shoes are selected based on the whole image. This is influenced not only by the style of the jacket itself, but also by those items of clothing with which it is adjacent.
It is important to understand one strict rule: if the outfit is voluminous, the shoes should be miniature. Conversely, if the suit is adjacent to the body, the shoes can be massive.
Romantic and business image - shoes with heels or wedges. Everyday, romantic or practical outfit involves flat shoes - sandals, ballet shoes, loafers, slip-on crippers.
Especially relevant in recent seasons sneakers. Fashion has spread to them so much that it has become the norm to wear them even with skirts and dresses. Therefore, in such an eclectic ensemble, where a denim jacket can be combined with anything, sneakers are just the right fit. Although sneakers of fashionable styles are also relevant now (for example, classic VANS or CONVERSE).
If we talk about color solutions, everything here is strictly individual and depends on the specific outfit. Do not think that black shoes will fit everywhere. This is far from always the case. If there are few colors in your outfit, then the shoes can be of any tone that matches the created range. When the ensemble of flowers and drawings is too much, the shoes should be discreet, monophonic, repeating the main motive of the outfit in color.
We complement the image with accessories
If the participants in the image are trousers or a skirt on the floor, then the hat comes first. But what bag will complete this image will depend on what kind of shoes you have chosen. To sports shoes - massive bags, to a miniature and more strict - small clutches.
If you create an image close to hippies, you can not do without necklaces, pendants, large bracelets and beads. A hat is also possible here, but always with wide brim. With sun skirts or long dresses, the image cannot be completed without a stylish belt - at the waist or under the chest.
Sometimes unnecessary accessories are not needed in an ensemble in which a denim jacket participates. For example, when she is thrown on a simple knitted dress in the floor - plain or two-tone. There will be enough black sunglasses and a bag to match the shoes.
In the ensemble of a jacket and a delicate dress, small beads, a string of pearls or a discreet necklace will be appropriate. There may also be earrings that make up the set with jewelry on the neck.
In addition to accessories in the traditional sense of the word - jewelry, belts, shoes and bags - it is worth paying attention to such an additional tool, associated primarily with denim. These are stripes.
We can say that today it is a trend that extends to all styles and ages. The patch can be naughty (for example, with cartoon characters or comics), it can be just romantic (flower, bird, etc.).Patches look original and organically fit into the denim style.
Spectacular images
And now we want to tell you about such means of enhancing the effectiveness of your image, like a game of color and prints. Let's start with the floral patterns. Since the effect of denim is revealed only by the game of contrasts, clothes with bright floral prints will be the best complement to jeans.
Pea is one of denim's true friends. Like a cage, peas always look advantageous in combination with denim, whether it be a dress, blouse or skirt.
Khaki fabrics and camouflage material look good with jeans. If you want to create a belligerent and independent image - these are just the tools that will help you achieve this goal.
A combination of total black or total white looks very stylish with a denim jacket. This is ideal for fans of minimalism. And do not think that such a look cannot be called spectacular. Its appeal lies in the impeccability of the image.
The striped theme is always relevant, and with a denim jacket it also looks good and bright. Do not forget only that the horizontal strip visually expands the silhouette, and the vertical, on the contrary, stretches, slim. Keep this in mind when choosing an outfit for your body type.
Do not miss the opportunity to create a trendy outfit that combines denim items of different textures, colors and styles. It is also fashionable to wear things sewn using the patchwork technique (patchwork). A denim jacket created using this technique, which contains various fragments of denim, is especially stylish.
Celebrity bows
In conclusion, we bring to your attention the most fashionable images from the stars of world show business! For example, Hollywood beauty Reese Witherspoon demonstrates a great option. Which you should definitely take note: a short light dress of a free cut, a denim jacket and a set of stylish accessories that harmonize with each other.
It is not always possible to follow the choice of stars without looking back. So, the supermodel Miranda Kerr shows not only a beautiful ensemble, but also delightful legs (although the young lady is already over 30!). A short flared skirt, shirt, denim jacket and a minimum of accessories.
A similar image is trying to repeat and actress Jennifer Aniston. Romantic sundress above the knee, jeans and a graceful chain. All this demonstrates the great taste of film star. She did not take into account only one thing - the features of her age and figure.
In this anti-example, we urge you to choose your outfits so that they hide all the flaws and emphasize the best sides!
