Hey Fashion Bombers!
It’s Vuitton here with a trend report on a spring staple: denim jackets.
Leather jackets may have to take a back seat!
For some odd reason last Friday, while all my friends were craving food, I had a craving for a jean jacket. So I hopped on over to Zeller’s and found a Levi’s denim number for about $40. Quite a steal, plus it’s a perfect item for those warm, but brisk days.
Here are some looks for both men and women that incorporate my favorite new piece!

Rock your denim with confidence, but first pay attention to a few rules:
1. NEVER wear the exact shade of denim on top and on the bottom. You don’t want to end up looking like an extra in a late 90s music video. Contrast is key!
2. It’s spring, so roll the sleeves. Ladies can take it as high as the elbow. Guys, just roll up enough to show the wrist, especially if your watch game is on point.
3) Popped collars on denim jackets are much better than popped collars on shirts…ALWAYS!
That’s it for now. Until next time…keep it fab!

Hmmm, I have been tossing this trend around in my head, but maybe I’ll pop out an buy a denim jacket… I just can’t get the 90’s out of my head.. I think Rihanna rocked it best, I might just opt for a gillet instead.. Great post though
Great story, I have been thinking of buying a denim jacket, but I’m looking for something vintage-y like the one Kanye is wearing. Thanks, Vuitton!
Vuitton you are AWESOME! I love the looks you put together and they are all very affordable. i love The Fashion Bomb, but sometimes the clothes are a little too pricey for us fashionista on a budget. I will definetly be piecing together the first outfit! Thanks, Vuitton!!!
Can I say that I love, love, love Vuitton’s posts!!! That pic of Britney & Justin is hilarious!
I am officially a fan of Vuitton’s post. Please make more post Vuitton!
I was giggling at the Brit and JT pic too! LOL!
I just got a ‘new’ jean jacket from my aunt’s collection (she just passed) She had like 10 in her closet! Now I know how to rock it! :)
Great Job Vuitty Baby! I was juts thinking that I want a denim jacket for the spring!
Great post!! Well written and I love those sandals!! makes me want to get one! Keep writing Vuitton
OMG this post was awesome! I bought a denim jacket like 3 years ago so I don’t have to spend $40 to buy another one and I’ve noticed that it’s a trend in Hollywood too! LOL Looks like I’m gonna have to get my Kanye/Kelis on this spring and rock my jacket with different pieces and look fab doing so. THANKS VUITTON!
The fashion Bomb is always on point! Are u guys reading my mind? I was just entertaining the idea of buying a lil’ denim jacket for the spring season. A jean jacket is classic and comes in enuff varying styles to stand out in the crowd. Now I just have to figure out where I’m gonna purchase mine… the GAP maybe?
I love this post!. I saw it earlier in the day and had to hit the mall this evening to pick up the denim jacket/ white dress gold watch fit!
Looks GREAT!
This is my first time on this site and I think it’s official…I’ve found a new favorite blog!!! :D
I love the fact that everything is affordable without looking cheap. Y’all did that!!
Vuitton, what a great post! The first look was like my dream spring outfit! In the words of Martin, “You go Boy!”
Vuitton, i love this post i like how u keep it within some reasonable budget and it still looks like u spent a lot!
p.s. can you be my personal stylist? lol
………Vuitton! YOU have a style eye out of this world…..Your friends must be lucky to have you around to tell them to change, or give them the thumbs up before going out…;) HAHAHAHA!

That jeans dress must be very heavy…
But please don’t wear baby-size like Kanye. Looks like the lower button popped out because he’s fat.
