The barn jacket has roots dating back to the late 19th century. Originally designed for durability and practicality, it was often worn by farmers and factory workers. Over time, however, this piece transitioned into the fashion world, becoming a symbol of Americana and utility.
For a more classic look, today I styled my L.L. Bean barn jacket with a pair of jeans, a neutral sweater, and suede boots. I added a belt and headband for fun, versatile accessories. When it comes to pairing a barn jacket with jeans, you really canât go wrongâitâs a timeless combination.
Fashion, for me, is exciting because itâs constantly evolving, and there are countless ways to push boundaries. Want to be bold with your barn jacket? You can mix it up by pairing it with a skirt and tights, corduroy pants, or riding leggings. Donât shy away from vibrant colors either! Fashion should be fun, and if we always play it safe, whereâs the excitement?
Who says skirts are just for Spring and Summer?! With a barn jacket layered, a pair of tights and a good boot you are good to go!
Embrace the cozy Fall vibes with pants that can carry you and your barn jacket into the Winter.
Donât be afraid to add some pattern or color with your barn jacket.
Barn jackets, to me, represent the ultimate neutral piece. With their versatile palette, you have the freedom to add more flair through your accessories. So, have fun with it and choose pieces that bring you joy! Whether itâs a statement bag, bold earrings, a striking necklace, or a fabulous belt, thereâs no wrong way to accessorize. The key is to express your personality and make the look uniquely yours!
Barn jackets offer the perfect mix of function and style, making them a must-have for fall. Once designed for outdoor work, theyâve evolved into a fashion favorite, providing warmth and durability with a classic look. Whether youâre dressing down with jeans or layering over a skirt, they deliver a timeless, effortlessly cool vibe for the season.
