Denim Jacket: What to Look For In This Piece

Link to example (may be sold out) 

The goal is for this piece to mix and match with the rest of your clothes (or as much of it as possible!). If you are wanting to jump straight to our ideas for how to wear your denim jacket, just keep scrolling!

Here are some notes to help you find a style for this piece that is versatile. 

• Why it’s included in the capsule: A denim jacket is probably the most classic casual completer piece. It can be worn in all seasons!
• Recommended Color Scheme: Neutral Color – any denim wash or white denim is ideal
• Recommended Pattern: Solid
• Options for Fit/Style: Fitted. It’s ok if you can’t button it up! It really isn’t meant to be buttoned (in our opinion). If it’s fitted (which doesn’t mean tight) it will give you shape. Too loose or bulky and you look… well… bulky. No one wants to look bulky.
• Coordination Notes: n/a
• Maternity/Nursing: You can easily wear your regular size denim jacket since we don’t recommend buttoning them.
• Hot climate alternative: Skip or use as your jacket in the winter.

5 Outfit Ideas: How to Wear a Denim Jacket (and not look frumpy!)

Here are a few ideas shared by our community on the Frump Fighters Interactive! 

When you use one of our outfit guides paired with the Interactive platform you can search by any clothing piece (i.e denim jacket or a white shirt) and not only be able to see how other women are styling it, but also all our example outfits! 

Some people will comment “but I can do that on Pinterest” and while that’s TRUE, you still have to go searching for the other pieces of the outfit in order to copy them. Using our web app and capsule you likely already have the clothing pieces you need to create many, many outfits! It’s also way to easy to get sucked down a rabbit hole and never actually get dressed 😝

We’ve been showing 3 outfits for every piece in this series, but denim jackets are just SO versatile that I want to show you 5 denim jacket outfit ideas – in all the seasons!

Denim Jacket Outfit Idea #1: With a Swing Dress & Boots

Proof that your denim jacket is maternity friendly without any modifications! It layers perfectly over a flowy style dress (or top) by adding definition. This outfit could be paired with nearly any shoe or scarf!

Looking for a maternity-friendly denim jacket? Use any of the Amazon links above! They all work while pregnant.

Denim Jacket Outfit Idea #2: With a Tunic or Sweater Dress & Leggings

Even with a wintery piece like a sweater dress you can add a denim jacket and it still looks in season.

Denim Jacket Outfit Idea #3: With Color Pants & Striped Tee

shared with permission

Add that extra layer in the spring or fall by wearing your denim jacket with a staple piece like a striped top. The colored pants are the perfect pop of fun!
