Denim Pieces You Need To Add To Your Closet Now

By Kristen Peuvion on March 30, 2015

How many times a week do you throw on a pair of jeans and call it a day?

There’s no denying that your favorite pair of jeans is a fashion lifesaver. When you feel like you have nothing to wear, your trusty jeans are always sitting in your drawer waiting for you to call upon them.

And why wouldn’t they be your go to? Denim goes with virtually anything in your closet. It can be dressed up or dressed down and it’s one of those things that you always feel comfortable in.

So since we all have an affinity for all things denim, why not branch out a little from your handy dandy favorite pair of jeans and add some more denim to your closet?

There are tons of denim pieces out there calling your name, so consider adding any of these staples to your wardrobe as soon as possible!

Denim Jacket

A denim jacket is every girl’s best friend in the cooler months of spring and fall. It’s the perfect jacket to throw on whatever you’re wearing because it’s so versatile.

Whether you’re headed to your best friend’s wedding shower and need something to throw on over your dress or you’re running late for work and noticed it’s a little colder than you realized so you needed to throw something on over your blouse, the denim jacket is the piece to turn to.

Just like any other denim piece, a denim jacket can be as casual or as dressy as you want, depending on the style of jacket you get and how you incorporate it into your own personal style.

There are so many different styles out there, from cropped to military style to big and baggy. The hottest style to try right now is a baggy denim jacket that slightly hangs off of your frame. You can either wear it open and loose or tie it with a belt for some waist definition.

Flare Jeans

Skinny jeans are a thing of the past according to the fashion world. With the huge revival of the ’70s in the fashion industry, it didn’t take long for designers to start sending flared jeans down the runway once again.

It’s been a while since flared jeans were popular, so if you’re a little weary to try this trend, it’s understandable. If you’re feeling gutsy, though, you won’t be disappointed with the addition of flared jeans in your closet.

It’s fun to change things up and sometimes we need a break from our tried and true skinnies.

The world of flared jeans is probably foreign territory to you after years and years of rocking only skinny jeans, but they’re actually a lot easier to style than you might think. The number one rule is to stay away from too much volume on top since there will be a lot of volume at your feet.

Other than that, just put your own unique spin on it, whether that be with a chic layered look on top or tucking in a simple shirt.

Denim Skirt

Remember when we were in middle school when mini denim skirts were all the rage? Typically they were slightly destroyed, barely covered anything and came from Hollister or Abercrombie and more often than not, they were worn over a pair of black leggings.

Thankfully, that trend is long gone, however denim skirts have made their way back into the fashion industry. Thanks in part to the ’70s revival, denim skirts in all different lengths and styles are back on the runways and in stores.

Some popular styles include denim pencil skirts and midi skirts. Super short styles aren’t all that popular. The look is chic and more conservative than the denim mini-skirts of our youth but these trendier styles should be a more than welcome alternative to Hollister mini-skirts.

Denim Vest

Who says vests can only be worn in the cold months of winter? The denim vest is proof that a vest can and should be worn year round. In the cooler months of spring time, wear a denim vest over your favorite winter sweater for a look that perfectly matches the in-between of seasons.

Then in the warmer months of summer, wear it over your favorite romper or sundress. Either way, the denim vest will meet all of your needs no matter what the season.

Now your favorite pair of jeans doesn’t have to be your automatic go to! While they’ll always be there in your closet, why not try one of these alternatives?

These denim pieces will get you through any “I have nothing to wear” moment, so add them to your closet now.
