Doing denim jackets right

It’s the most sought-after piece for SS’14: stylish and so useful. The perfect cover-up for when the sun isn’t at its best.

1. Lyla Mid Wash Denim Jacket – Boohoo – £30

– I’ve always been a lover of darker denim and feel it doesn’t get enough credit. The hint of acid wash keeps it updated and on-trend.

2. Vintage Renewal Branded Denim Jacket – Urban Outfitters – £55

– Again, I’m a big fan of Urban Outfitter’s ‘vintage renewal’ section; it’s all one size and has been made from vintage denim sourced by UO’s team. I love the big boxy look of this jacket.

3. Authentic Denim Trucker Jacket in Moonshine – Levi – £80

-My Levi jacket is my most prized possession and has been since I was given it….six years ago. Before that, it belonged to my sister. It’s extra spending but completely worth it as a Levi will see you through your best days and the quality won’t let you down.

4. Laverna Acid Wash Boyfriend Denim Jacket – Missguided – £29.99

-Acid wash, this time in light blue. This is the perfect jacket to wear day-to-night, as it will look funky over a summer dress and add some edge to clubwear, without detracting from your outfit.

5. Moto Floral Western Jacket – Moto – £45

-Floral denim jackets are the epitome of summer; it’s almost rude not to get one. Topshop also have matching shorts and a skirt if you want to jump on the co-ords trend as well.

6. Reboot Denim Trucker Jacket – Diesel – £250

-Before you have a heart attack at the price, Diesel is a high-quality brand, so it depends how much you deem worthy to spend on your staple items. Failing that, wait for the sales or for a friend/relative to visit the States. Denim will always be around, so there’s no rush for this beauty.

7. Blue Denim Jacket – H&M – £24.99

-For those who stay away from acid wash and vintage and just want a simple denim jacket for this season and all of the ones that will follow.
