Prepare to brave transitional weather by repurposing your denim shirts as denim jackets. For a longer, tunic-length denim shirt, just wear it like you would a jacket–slung open. Then throw your shirt over your shoulders for a casual look that’s great for dressing down a fancier going-out look. Or purposefully pick a smaller denim shirt (thrift stores are great for these), and wear as a cropped jacket with your summer dresses.

Denim trends cycle in and out fast (although they always seem to repeat themselves). But it seems that jean jackets are the one form that never fades away. A jean jacket is the most dependable denim staple that is almost always fashionable even when they are out of fashion. Kim Kardashian is certainly no stranger to the look. She is seen wearing a Bebe Open Knit Maxi, Fendi Peekaboo Leather Tote, Dita Condor Sunglasses, Sam Edelman Gigi Sandal, and TEXTILE Elizabeth and James Sid Denim Jacket. We love the jean jacket over a dress style for every summer day outing; Black tie affairs included.
