How to Wear Jean Jackets on Casual Evenings for a Beautiful High-Low Look

Transitional weather is a time when a lightweight jacket comes in handy. It’s chillier after the sun goes down and besides, restaurants and theaters are often cooler than desired as well. So I think you’ll agree that now is the perfect time to explore how to wear jean jackets on casual evenings. I am presenting outfit ideas below to give you a beautiful high-low look by dressing up a denim jacket. Age doesn’t matter when you’ve got style and this piece in particular gives a more youthful, carefree look. 

Starting with two style tips, this post continues with jean jacket outfit combinations:

• With a fancy dress,
• With a skirt and
• With pants or jeans.

How to Wear Jean Jackets on Casual Evenings:  Style Tips

Style Tip #1:  Top any outfit with a jean jacket and add a very blingy necklace.

Style Tip #2:  Pair a jean jacket with a sparkly piece, such as a gold lamé top.

How to Wear Jean Jackets on Casual Evenings

With a Fancy Dress

Jean jackets come in a variety of colors, prints, shapes and embellishments. Leopard print is one of my favorites, but there are some that are just as fitting for evening that have pearls, sequins, ruffles, etc.

1. A black dress + a jean jacket. Add sheer stockings & tall black boots. You might like to put your hair up for evening.
2. A jean jacket over a scoop-neck black maxi dress. Add a short gold necklace, perhaps a y-necklace, & bracelets. Turn back the cuffs on the jacket.
3. Pair a sleeveless black maxi dress with a jean jacket. Add big gold disk earrings + a long beaded pendant + flat gold footwear, such as sandals.
4. Add a jean jacket to a lace dress.
5. Dress down a fancy dress, such as a sequined or velvet dress, with a denim jacket. You might like to add heels & a necklace. If you prefer, wear boots or sneakers.
6. Jean jacket over a cocktail dress. You might like to add strappy sandals.
7. A jean jacket + a ruffled dress. Add chunky boots for Spring or tights & knee-high boots for Fall.

With a Skirt

1. Pair a denim jacket with a lace skirt.
2. A sequined or otherwise embellished skirt + a plain white top or tee + a jean jacket. Or, choose a top of your choice; anything goes here.
3. Combine a jean jacket with a sweater & an ecru tiered skirt with sequins or something similar. Add booties & gold or pearl earrings.
4. A jean jacket + a fancy chiffon or sequined skirt + a top of your choice. Add gold footwear, such as sandals. 
   

   

5. Layer a jean jacket over a gray t-shirt & a short black chiffon skirt. Add leggings or jeggings or tights & booties. 
6. A denim moto jacket + a tulle skirt, velvet skirt or lace-edged tiered skirt. You might like to wear a t-shirt with this.
7. Tuck a black tank top inside a long black, printed skirt & add a denim jacket. Accessorize with a long y-necklace & flat, gold sandals.

With Pants or Jeans

I don’t usually like the look of a denim top with denim bottoms, unless they are either a set or in different colors and tones. Therefore, I haven’t collected outfit combinations for them here. Instead, I’m presenting some alternatives ideas.

1. A long-sleeve black lace top + leopard-print pants + a denim jacket. Add rings & flat black shoes.
2. A black lace or sequined top + slim black pants + a denim jacket.
3. Any color sequined top + black or white jeans + a denim jacket. Add heels.
