Wardrobe Staple no 12 of 33: The Denim Shirt

Denim applies to the wardrobe in so many ways…jeans, shorts, overalls, jackets and of course, the denim shirt. I love the cowboy tuxedo of a denim shirt paired with a similar colored denim jean and topped with a denim jacket. Give me all of the denim! I wear an XL vintage Levis western denim shirt I found on ebay over my swim in the summer. When winter comes, I love a denim shirt with my suits and leather trousers. I own denim shirts in both regular pocketed and western sizes and have them in both a fitted size and extreme oversized. I recommend having at least one denim shirt in your line up! Choose a color and fit that will be most versatile with what items you already own!

Wrangler & Levi’s, Made in the USA, from ebay is my number one go to for denim shirts. If you are on a budget, remove the made in USA part and just search Wrangler or Levi’s, so many great second hand options out there! If you don’t like second hand, Wrangler has awesome shirts for great prices on their site in many different fabric options. Levi’s has a classic selection always available and rotates in new washes every season. Free People has fashion options in great shapes, colors and fun prints with a few classics mixed in for good measure. RRL by Ralph Lauren has been a go to for me for years when shopping for my celebrity clients! They nail the vintage look, and I love their menswear as much as the womens department. And if you want more of a minimalist vibe, look no further than the ever chic APC Victor Shirt.
