What Colour Jackets And Coats to Wear with Light Blue Jeans

The best jacket colours to wear with light blue jeans are navy and black. Light blue against navy is a tonal classic; it reads polished without trying. Cream, olive, denim blue and brown also work. Be careful with camel and light blue: an overcoat is dressier than jeans, so the pairing only works in a deliberately mixed outfit. Colour-wise it works: light blue is cool and bright against warm camel; it works, but white or grey would be crisper.
