The eternal denim Jacket


Is it really eternal? Is it out? Is it ever? Should the wearers be be told to stop? I have recently pondered these questions because lately pairing a denim jacket with a pair of jeans brings to mind eighties multicolored tube socks and one-sided pony-tails with bangs (although that's making a comeback too). I cringe at the sight of women 30 and up wearing the combination really. Which makes me think - when is it ok to wear a denim jacket? Is it that the design makes the difference? Does it belong to the young only? I can't imagine grandma wearing a denim jacket unless she's gardening or is the regular hippie. I've been reconsidering the popularity of jeans altogether and wondering if there is anything that might replace it as the most worn article of clothing ever. Well... what makes a pair of jeans the go to piece of clothing no matter the occasion? seems to be these days it's worn to restaurants, theatre, opera house, the Board room...just about any and everywhere. Think, durability-jeans last forever and if not forever a darn long time! blending ability - jeans go with every fashion dressed up or down and with any color, chameleon ability - it takes on many forms (hmmm jeans underwear anyone?)
