Denim shirts are apparently back in style

Dear users, dear authors,
Denim shirts are back in style, possibly even paired with jeans.
Do you like them?

Oh, you shouldn’t throw away clothes just because they’ve gone out of style—it’s such a shame.

I used to have a denim shirt—it was so comfortable to wear. I loved it.

I don’t wear blouses very often, but why not give a denim shirt another try? 

You could sew one yourself—how about that?

No, Josefa. I don’t really sew dresses for myself. I don’t dare try it—it has to fit just right. And for that, you’d need the right pattern in the right size (which is tricky for me, since I wear about a 32, 34, or 36) and the right fabric. That’s where my skills fall short. 

Doll clothes are easier—it doesn’t have to fit perfectly; the dolls and their moms don’t care. 

Oh, too bad—I thought that would be right up your alley.

Denim shirts are indestructible, after all. My husband still has a light-colored denim shirt from the ’80s. It just won’t fall apart, no matter what. So he has no reason to get rid of it. And now it’s even coming back into style.

My little son used to have a denim jacket for the winter, too. It was lined with thick teddy bear plush. Of course, he wore jeans with it. Oh well, jeans probably never really go out of style.

Love, Ina

I like to wear denim shirts instead of a jacket when it starts to get a little cooler but is still too warm for a “real” jacket.

I’ve never stopped wearing denim shirts either. They’re practical and comfortable. I have several in my closet, and yes, they’re great as a substitute for a jacket.
Best regards, Marita 

I didn’t even know they’d ever gone out of style?
Sure, the “wash” of the denim depends on current trends, but out of style in general?

I always have denim shirts in my closet. Usually medium to dark blue (light blue denim or denim with a lot of white in it has always given me the creeps). Two old ones that I always use as cover-ups when painting, wallpapering, etc., and two or three in different lengths that I also wear normally.

BUT: never a denim shirt with jeans! Yuck :-) Ugh :-)
That usually doesn’t look good—way too much denim all at once (very late ’70s/’80s style).

I used to have a denim shirt that I really liked to wear. I don’t have one in my closet right now, but I can always change that ;).

Best wishes and have a great week, everyone!
