Ok here is a quick and easy one. Denim shirt. Should I? How should I pull it off?



Been looking at this one (below) from Banana Republic.
Thinking I would get it, wash it a few times to give it a more worn-in
look and wear it with dark unwashed jeans with a nice slim straight
cut.  Thoughts?










SB:



Absolutely!



I love denim shirts. I'm actually wearing one right now (a really beat-in version from RRL). I love the look. Styling can be a bit tricky though, but considering you are planning to lose your denim-shirt-virginity with jeans on, I'm assuming you know a thing or two about tricky styling. Just remember to keep the washes different, you don't want to end up looking like Jay Leno.








As a "safer" alternative, wear it with slim khakis, brown corduroys, or light gray jeans. Also, try to get a cut that is short enough that you can wear untucked, or nonchalantly half-tucked. And remember, you don't need to pair it with anything "in your face" or any loud accessories, the shirt already makes a statement.



Thanks for reading.



Yours in style,

SB
