American Indian guy #2
Ladybug
Bear with hat on

Ach! Too! Busy! Cripes! Eyes! Burning!

Be careful with denim, people. This is an example of where a simple crime against denim could lead to total outfit mayhem. We don't care what you're wearing under that jacket; we take one look at it and we're having a seizure on the floor.

This jean jacket from Josephs-colours-sells on eBay is a Coldwater Creek from the underacknowledged realm of "trying to look like your mother and doing it wrong."

WTF? This is so obviously wrong.

It's like this. The jacket was too long so they decided to cut it. Then, while they got ready to cut it, they had seven martinis and decided it would be really funny if they just cut some of it off. We can just see this being a good idea at like, 3am:

"Yeah, you know...like coattails...but on the sides...of this denim jacket...with three quarter sleeves and an awkward, sideways belly-flap."

But that idea should have been trumped in the morning.

It must be fall. Get out your bad jean jackets.

Here, on sale from Cerry5354, we have a green satin disaster. This is like a castoff from that scene in Return to Oz when Dorothy had to touch everything that was green to bring Oz back to life or something, I don't know, I was only half watching by that point because that Rock dude really freaked my shiz out. And the flying moose box. WTF, moose box? Anyway, all the stuff that was green in that scene was like, really awkwardly and sort of aggressively green. Like this jacket.

Also, can we take a moment to appreciate the fact that Dorothy was played by Fairuza Balk? Thanks.

How to Wear a Jean Jacket without Looking like a Douche Bag

Wear a Denim Jacket (w/out looking like a fool)

Denim jackets are classic, they are always in fashion in some iteration. Like any classic piece of clothing there is always room to mess it up. The jean jacket can look wrong more often than it can look right, which is such a shame. To help you avoid looking like a hot mess here are some denim jacket do's and denim jacket don'ts to ensure you get it right this time.

Do:
- Wear cropped styles for a fresh new look.
- Experiment with treatments such as quilting or pin tucks.
- Try wearing a hooded denim jacket for a casual/cool look.
- Wear your blue denim jacket with white denim pants for a casual spring appropriate ensemble.

Don't:
- Adorn your denim with appliqués, fur, or any other obnoxious trim ... that's so yuck!
- Wear your denim jacket from 1985! It's not cool anymore trust me on this one.
- Wear your blue denim jacket with your blue denim pants (it's so a 1990's nightmare).
