Vegan leather is the ideal answer for our style but also socially-conscious fashionistas. Up to now, the problem has been to locate vegan leathers that artfully mimic the real deal. Another style that has worked its way from trend to perennial favorite is the puff sleeve denim jacket. Cropped leather jackets (vegan of course) are also new on the fashion horizon. Yet another trend we’ve spotted for Fall/Winter 2025 is the vegan puffer jacket. It is definitely about to have a moment. In this posting, TandyWear, your fashion guide, will show you how to layer a vegan leather jacket and a denim jacket stylishly. Just consider these key elements:
Fit and Silhouette:
-
Choose jackets that complement your body type. Remember a longer jacket provides warmth and coverage, while a shorter jacket is long on style!
-
Avoid bulky jackets when layering; opt for lighter, more breathable fabrics as base layers if needed.
-
Make sure your outerwear fits comfortably over your other layers without restricting movement. Oversized is having a resurgence. Start with Free People’s Vada Thermal Top and then don SHACI’s Oversized Denim with Fur Trim Jacket. The two units pair perfectly!
Color Coordination:
-
Neutrals are a safe bet, allowing for versatility when mixing and matching.
-
Darker shades of denim generally pair well with black vegan leather, while lighter denim can be complemented by softer hues.
-
For black jeans, opt for vegan leather jackets in colors other than brown.
-
If unsure, choose dark colors for a cohesive look.
Accessories - Enhance your look with accessories such as:
-
Statement jewelry
-
Trendy handbags
-
Stylish footwear like boots or sneakers
Outfit ideas
-
Casual Cool: Layer a puff sleeve denim jacket over a classic tee. Wear it with distressed jeans, and ankle boots.
-
Edgy & Polished: Pair a vegan puffer jacket over a turtleneck like our Modal Fitted Turtleneck top. Complete the look with black skinny jeans and studded boots.
-
Masculine-Feminine Mix: Wear a vegan leather jacket over a flowing midi skirt and complement it with ankle boots. We like our Faux Leather Shearling Trim Moto Jacket Vest over the Textured Knit Drop Shoulder Sweater and our Woven Floral Print Mixed Skirt. The look is unique and the impact sensational! If your heart is set on locating a cropped jacket for winter this year, here’s your solution: Our Cropped Leather Jacket with Fur Lining. High rise jeans like Mica’s Super High Rise Chino Pant will keep your midsection warm!
-
Monochrome with a Twist: Create an all-black base with black jeans and a black top. Layer with a black vegan leather jacket and add a pop of color with a vibrant scarf or bold lipstick. We like our Mallory Jacket w/Whipstiching. It combines two tones of faux leather and complementary knit sleeves for added comfort.
-
Elevated Workwear: Layer a tailored blouse and trousers with a vegan leather jacket for a professional yet edgy office-to-drinks ensemble. To keep it youthful, opt for our Long Sleeve Embroidery Detail Faux Suede Varsity Jacket.
