Winters are officially here! We all know, that dressing up for cold winter weather can be a bit difficult at times, however, some outfits make you feel enthusiastic. Talking of the winter arsenal, some fantastic combos help you look modish yet keep you comfortable, and denim jackets are one of them. However, with the cool crisp air all around; sometimes we are apprehensive about wearing them as it might be a little too chilly. Well…I believe denim jackets are not just for spring and summer, you can easily wear them all year round. 

Can You Wear A Denim Jacket In The Winter?

Denim is a breathable fabric and may not be mainly identified for its insulation characteristics though it is an essential fashion piece for winters. You can always opt for a hefty, high-quality denim jacket or denim jacket with heavy textile padding material like fleece or wool for comfort and coziness. Moreover, if you style your denim jacket the correct way, you can keep yourself warm and at the same time; avoid looking like a marshmallow even in this tough, chilly weather. 

5 Chic Ways to Layer a Denim Jacket in Winter

If you are looking for some ideas for what to wear with denim jackets for colder months of the year, look no further. Take out your denim jacket and get ready to style it up for this winter.

Denim Jacket Over A Sweater/Knitted Cardigan And Turtleneck

Layering is the best hack when it comes to winter outfit styling. Though learning ‘how to layer clothes’ without creating a massive silhouette is a large part of winter styling.  Start with a light thermal wear or turtleneck sweater to keep your body warm.  Layer a knitted cardigan (avoid hefty wool or large textiles) over the thermal or turtleneck.

Further, to keep your middle body warm tuck both the layers into high-waisted jeans. Pairing jeans with a denim jacket offers a trendy double-denim look. Also, it is preferable to combine two dissimilar denim washes for a more casual look. I usually prefer, mom jeans as they fit snugly with a little room at the waist. They feel sizable at the crotch and hips, and taper to the ankle, and are proceeded fit. Complete the look by layering your denim jacket on top. 

Denim Jacket Over An All-Black Or Monochromatic Black Outfit

I personally love All-black or monochromatic black outfits. They look so stylish and cool. Also, they are super easy to style! 

Simply pick your fav black top, jeans, and boots, and add on a few chunky accessories. Elevate the whole look with a denim jacket and you have a nonchalant distinction between the all-black look and the denim, oh yes…it is that simple!

Denim Jacket with A Tartan Print Tweed Skirt And Leggings

A tartan print tweed skirt worn above leggings and further paired up with a denim jacket looks elegant yet stylish. The combination is a balance of classy and casual and makes a great style statement to keep you all warm during those super cold days. Accessorize your attire with a nice, cozy scarf to add more of a sophisticated look

Denim Jacket With Overalls

Pairing vibrant hues with plain indigo-wash denim is a sure-shot way to beat the winter blues. All you need is a fashionable and quirky set of colorful overalls.

Style a fun neon set of overalls with your denim jacket, for a snug look. If bold and colorful overalls are not your thing; try incorporating vibrant accessories like bag or shoes for that vivacious appearance. Again, do not forget to layer a turtle neck or a profuse knit under your overalls, to warm up the clothing even more.

Hoodie Under the Jacket

Yes, you heard it right, a denim jacket can effortlessly be worn over a hoodie in the casual fall/winter season. The combination works particularly apt with jeans, leggings, or sweatpants. You can completely hold up to the casual aesthetic while layering a denim jacket over a hoodie.

The neutral blue denim hue can be easily mixed and matched with a very wide range of hoodies. Also, various color combinations work well, for example, pair a white hoodie with a navy-blue denim jacket, black leggings, and white sneakers. For a more intrepid and outstanding appearance, opt for cheerful and bolder hues. Think hoodies in vivacious pink, purple, green or red. 

For a more minimalist aesthetic, consider wearing a light gray or beige hoodie sweatshirt dress with a blue denim loose jacket and accessorize it with a black leather embellished bag and black leather mid-calf heeled boots.

Try wearing a light and oversized denim jacket under the hoodie; this would give you enough breathing space without making you feel restricted or uncomfortable. 

The denim jacket is a perfect example of how you absolutely can stay warm and remain fashionable during the winter season. How are you going to elevate your fashion game with a denim jacket in winter?
