Is it a fashion no-no....????

....to wear a denim jacket with jeans???

I think it looks good but I remember hearing once or twice that it is quite a faux pas.
What the heck do I know?!

I think it would look good too.

I think the key is that they can't match each other. Otherwise it'll look like you're wearing a denim Sergio Tachini

HAS to match....I refuse to wear it together if it doesn't! It bothers me.

Okay, I have one vote for matching denim and one for non. Hmmmmm........

I just tried my jacket with jeans and they're slightly different shades. I think it looked pretty hot!

I have a fear of denim top and denim bottom. I usually go for the denim jacket with khaki colored pants. But then again, I'm not the most fashionable person in the world, so I really can't be one to talk

I'd have to agree.... I am by no means the most fashion forward individual around, but would agree that it would look too much like a denim suit, together.

Another vote for not matching.

NOT matching! And not so close that it looks like you meant to match, but didn't ( this applies in general with clothes of the same color)

ETA- I did see a man in what appeared to be a denim suit once. It was at a wake. And he was tall, so he stood out.
The deceased was a retired truck driver, & there were a lot of cowrkers/union members, there, so I assume the denime suit man was a truck driver & could possibly have been on his way to/from work.

Another vote for not matching. I only wear my denim jacket with non-denim pants. With jeans, i'll wear a little blazer type jacket.

ok, I said not matching, but this is ont eh levi's site & doesn't look bad--mayeb it is the bare midriff that breaks it up.

OMG! You ladies crack me up!

Okay here is the outfit in question:




Normally, I'd wear khakis w/ a denim jacket but if I can get away with denim on denim, why the heck not?! Then again, I used to wear genie pants and hyper color shirts in the early 90s! I'm a lost cause!

Re: Is it a fashion no-no....????

I don't see why not, I have done it myself but the denim has to be closer in color.

Re: Is it a fashion no-no....????

I don't like to wear denim with denim...another pet peeve. I would wear it with black pants or khaki pants.
