What Colour Jackets And Coats to Wear with Denim Blue Shirt Dress

The best jacket colours to wear with a denim blue shirt dress are black, beige and navy. Two neutrals with clear contrast: denim blue and black always sit well together. Khaki, cream, brown and dark brown also work. Be careful with grey and denim blue: a blazer is dressier than a shirt dress, so the pairing only works in a deliberately mixed outfit. Colour-wise it works: denim blue and grey are both neutral but similar in depth, so the outfit reads soft.
