It was only recently I realised how many ways there are to wear a denim jacket and began to appreciate their versatility, the outfits I could create when paired with my current wardrobe, and their benefits to a capsule wardrobe formula.

My style is generally a combination of minimalism, androgynous and contemporary and I never thought of wearing a denim jacket with these styles - I considered it more as a classic preppy look. 

Not so.

There are endless style tips for how women can wear a denim jacket. Plus so many designs to choose from, be it the oversized androgynous look, the grunge approach, or the girl-next-door style.  

If you search Google for denim jackets, you’ll find an overwhelming supply of where to buy them and how to wear them. 

The truth? Too many ideas to choose from.

So, now I've done all this searching to find one I'll use for ever more, I thought I'd share my finds with you - make the searching really worthwhile!

Keep scrolling to see 10 style tips for your denim jacket, plus 19 pieces I found for you to check out, affordable and luxury. You’re welcome!
