Acid wash fashion trend isn’t dead. On pants they come by aplenty but our focus is on denim jackets made punk with acid washes and 5 sizzling ways of styling them.
Acid wash denim jeans and jackets are a must-have wardrobe staple for the punk-ish and rebellious. If you think that acid washes in general belong to the 80s, then you’re sadly mistaken.
The cutie Jesse Williams (Avery from Grey’s Anatomy) was spotted wearing a short-sleeved acid wash denim shirt with khaki green drop-crotch pants and sneakers at the 2014 EPSY Awards mid of last month. Not going to pretend to know what the event was all about but boy, did he have a cool fashion sense to go with that beautiful face.
Scouring Lookbook for worthy looks that highlight the acid wash jacket trend, I find that it really is not that hard to style at all, considering that it is a layering piece that can breathe life into the laziest and the dressiest of garbs. Of course, with acid washes they tend to give off a relaxed edgy mood that is well suited for an off-duty wear and a fancy outfit in need of an opposite contrast.
Without further ado, I unleash to you 5 acid wash denim jacket fashion tips with the guide of the looks below:
