Red, off
duty.

A red jacket does the talking. Denim keeps it easy.

A red jacket can be the whole idea. Wear it with plain black jeans so the colour has a quiet background, then use light trainers to break up the dark lower half. Keep the bag simple. You can start with a white tee you already own beneath the jacket. The cover is AI styling inspiration, not a photograph of these exact items; the shopping photographs show the actual pieces.

Style lessons

Make red the lead

Keep the jeans and bag black. Let the jacket supply the colour.

Check the jean hem with the trainers on. A small turn-up can expose more of the shoe; compare it with the unturned leg before deciding.

Try a plain white tee under the jacket before adding a print. With a strong outer layer, familiar basics can be the most useful starting point.
