The Perfect Denim Shirt

The perfect denim shirt ... does it exist? Should it exist? Dark or light denim? Can you wear double denim or is that a no no? I get asked these questions all the time along with if they're ok to wear still, what to wear with them and I have to say I struggle with knowing how to wear mine. That is until My Midlife Fashion started posting amazing outfits on Avenue 57. Yet again I am reminded why I set up the website last year. I can just steal these looks because I have the shirt (bought mine in Sainsbury's but they STILL don't have their clothes online so I can't link to it).

Here is how the expert wears hers - swoon

Here are a couple of ideas of what to wear with your denim shirt

So how do you wear your denim shirt? I just got this gorgeous jacket from Mango so I'm going to try and wear a slouchy grey tshirt underneath the denim shirt under the jacket - watch this space for a show and tell very soon!

  2. She looks amazing, but I am too butch for denim shirts, double denim? I would look like I was off to fell a tree or change a car tyre whilst lifting the car with one hand!

    1. LOL LOL I doubt you would look butch at all you daft bat! Double denim works if the denim is different in colour - that's my opinion anyway!!!

  4. I've never been really big on denim shirts for some reason, but I have seen so many inspirational outfits lately, that I think I will finally take the plunge and get my first. But how I'll wear it remains to be seen for now :)

  5. when I got my first one a couple of years ago I felt VERY weird wearing it as the last one I wore was back in the 80s!!
    Wear, be proud and show me when you do!!
