Blush pink denim jacket

May 16, 2023

I've kept an eye out for a blush pink denim jacket, so when I came across this one from AllSaints, I had to give it a try. I love how it is a mixed pink and black wash.

I wasn't actively looking for it, so I would not have seen it, had I not stopped in the AllSaints store recently and bought a pair of blush pink jeans on sale (along with a matching pullover and a non-matching pullover!). I've already worn the jeans and pink pullover together and the striped pullover (in Finds) with other bottoms. When I got home from that shopping trip, I looked online to see what else AllSaints had on sale, and I saw the jacket, in my size, and ordered it. I debated keeping it, because it felt a little small in the shoulders. But I couldn't find the next size up anywhere, so I held on to the jacket with the tags on.

Today I removed the tags and wore the jacket. It is fine with a light layer underneath.

Photo 1 is how I wore it today, to go out to breakfast. I was inspired by Jaime's EXTRA style idea and wore the necklace! It's a piece I really like but rarely wear. It felt right today with this tee.
Hay Denim Jacket (AllSaints), boyfriend jeans (Citizens of Humanity Emerson), graphic tee in cream with black, green, and beige abstract design (Madewell), cream loafers (27 Edit), sage cross body bag (Madewell Transport Camera Bag), light olive belt (Fossil), necklace with brass irregular-shaped beads on black cord, hammered brass half-loop earrings (Marjorie Baer).

Photo 2 is a variation, with the new Cole Haan sneakers, which I haven't worn out of the house yet. Trying to make sure they will work. And a Pendleton stripe bag with white and blush faux-croc trim  (made by me).

Photos 3-4 show the matching jeans. I think as recently as last year, I wouldn't have worn these pieces together. But now I think I will.

I welcome your thoughts!

    OMG, stonewashed pink denim! You look fabulous! I have a stonewashed denim shirt, but these coordinating separates are awesome and take it to the next level :). I really like how you've styled everything and for sure, you should wear them together!

    Could you be any cooler? I think not. Love every variation you show here.  What a unique and flattering muted blush on you.

    Super cool, and next level as a matching set. Love it! Great vibe.

  • Vildy replied 1 year ago

    Never seen anything like this wash.  I love how it makes the color textural.

  • Firecracker (Sharan) replied 1 year ago

    Wow, Angie, that's saying a lot! thank you!
    Slim cat, yes, the Seattle AllSaints store is really cool. Love all the sewing machines in the windows. I'm so glad it has survived so far, while many others downtown haven't.
    Thank you, Kate, Minaminu, Jenava, and Vildy! And ChristelJ, haha! and thanks!
    I'm flattered and a little surprised at the love for this particular wash and the head-to-toe combo. I thought it might be more of a quirky appeal.

    Awesomesauce! I feel like I'm looking through pink sunglasses.

    Wow! Love this so much and the fit of the jacket looks perfect to me. What an amazing find - pink stonewash!

    The MBM Pendelton bag and necklace are the perfect accessories.

    This is fabulous on another level!  I love stonewash denim.  I like the first look the best, but all the outfits are great.

    That’s such a cool jacket - and makes the most unique outfit with the matching jeans . I love this on you !

  • Jaime replied 1 year ago

    Gasp - I really can't beat Angie's and everyone's reaction to the matching set, yes I literally gasped! Such a brilliant way to wear pink! Also I love the cut of the boyfriend jeans on you. And thank you for the shout out - I am honored!

  • Firecracker (Sharan) replied 1 year ago

    Thank you, Nikki, Bonnie, Greenjeans, Bijou, Style Fan, Lisa, and Jaime, thank you for the EXTRA inspiration! These boyfriend jeans are now in the old-favorite category.

    WOW! I love this! Stonewashed set for the win! I definitely think you should wear together. I love the jacket's shape. The tee is fun, too!

    I love this unusual blush pink denim jacket.  I want one too :)

  • Brooklyn replied 1 year ago

    Awesome! What a fantastic colour. YLF!

    I have a pair of jeans that I overdyed green. Now I’m thinking I need pink :)

  • Dee replied 1 year ago

    Oh the blush pink denim is fun-its got "cool girl" vibes, looks great on you.

  • kkards replied 1 year ago

    Wow!  that’s double denim at its best!   YLF 

  • Kyle replied 1 year ago

    Wonderful finds and a great new modern, chic look. So glad you cut the tags. I’ve never been a fan of denim on denim until now. Also, thank you for inspiring me. I have a similar Madewell tee that I mainly wear around the house with shorts. But now I’m going dress it up a bit with jeans. Perfect for my hair appt. today.

  • Firecracker (Sharan) replied 1 year ago

    Thank you, Star. I hope you find it!

    Brooklyn, I bet those overdyed green jeans are super cool. I love green, too!
    Thanks, Dee. I like being able to play a "cool girl" on YLF!
    Thanks, Kkards!
    Kyle, I'm so happy to have inspired you!

    Love this lightened up palette on you! The modern graphic tee is really cool!

  • Firecracker (Sharan) replied 1 year ago

    Thank you, Helena!

  • Kari replied 1 year ago

    This is an amazing interpretation of denim on denim that I wouldn’t have expected. As always, your styling is top notch! I vote keep it. ❤️

  • Firecracker (Sharan) replied 1 year ago

    Thanks, Kari!

Welcome to my style blog. Dressing is something all of us do each day, but for me it is also a hobby. I like to find new ways to wear the clothes I have, make new clothes to add to my wardrobe (yes, sewing is another hobby!), shop for clothes, read and discuss fashion. Following You Look Fab has fueled my interest in taking outfit pictures to see where I've been and to get different perspectives on style. Thanks for joining me. I always appreciate hearing your thoughts.
