Street Style: Blazers & Denim

As the cool weather rolls in, guys are throwing on snappy blazers over their usual jeans and tees. The boys on the street show us the look can run the gamut from sharp sophisticate to downtown mod. In Paris, a trendy check button-up is toned down under a grey wool waistcoat and matching fitted jacket. Black jeans and fresh loafers in an offbeat colour add just the right amount of charm. In Berlin and Stockholm, the innocuous bow-tie dappers up the classic black blazer worn with cuffed jeans. The warm-toned tan blazer is automatically more casual, but in visually structural herringbone and with a serious tie, a New York gentleman easily pulls off wearing jeans to work. The same colour now, oversized or in bold houndstooth? More street corner punk than corner office chuck.

Denim Street Style - Turned Up Jeans

It's not just female hollywood A-listers that are rolling their jeans up, regular guys are getting in on the act as well. The results range from preppy, to 50s influenced to just plain - my jeans are too long. These photos were taken in NYC, Stockholm, London, Minneapolis and Berlin recently courtesy of MensVogue, StockholmStreetStyle, StyleScout, TheMinneapoline and AppealToThe Eye.

Denim Street Style - Jean Jackets

Denim Street Style in Seattle

Jean jackets have always been in style one way or another...think back to James Dean and Marilyn Monroe who brought the style to the masses. Across the globe from Seattle to Paris jean jackets are making a comeback and comfort is key. In Seattle (see above) this James Dean style jacket is simply cool and she looks chic without even trying.

Whether worn with shorts or a dress in London (see below) this easy comfort style always looks good. In Paris (see bottom) more tailored styles are seen on the streets worn here with a lace dress which is perfect for a night out. In Iceland (see bottom) the casualness of leggings and a t-shirt is made fashionable by those awesome highheels and headband the perfect cropped jean jacket sets the outfit right! I think my favorite this season is going to be found at a thrift / vintage store (the more broken in the better) to wear with all my dresses... a cross between London and Paris.
