Cardigan Layered Over Denim Jacket

Katie Holmes again..she attended the Tahari show at New York Fashion Week. She wore this Tahari cardigan over a Levi's denim jacket. White t shirt.

She looks so young here, like Joey Potter on Dawson's Creek. Would you wear a cardigan over a denim jacket? I do love the Aran pattern of the sweater.

She is darling and hasn't changed a bit. My kids use to watch Dawson's Creek and I remember her character on that show! I hope she's happy in her life with her little girl, too bad Tom Cruise put her through such a difficult time years ago He turned into a piece of work, still nice to look at though....LOL

No, but you could get a very similar- and smoother- look by subbing a denim or chambray shirt for the jacket.

No I wouldn’t wear a cardigan over a denim jacket.

I would and do wear a denim jacket over a sweater.

This looks OK I guess...

just not my idea of layering a jacket and a sweater...

Another beautiful sweater. Luv it. Wouldn't have thought to pair it w/a denim jacket but it looks good on her. Sweater would have to be quite oversized to fit properly over a jacket. She does look very nice here. What brand is the sweater?

Of course-- over a denim shirt, but not a jacket.

The jackets usually have the metal buttons and I feel like they could *catch* and pull the knit.

I was all ready to say what a silly idea just from reading the title of the thread, but then I saw the photos.

It looks great!

She's chosen a heavier weight cardigan and that makes all the difference. Clearly, one of those "twin set" cardigans would not work at all, but this one really does.

Maybe she doesn't want the smoother look a shirt would have given her. Her tee and pants are smooth enough and maybe she wanted more contrasting textures on that particular day/during that event.

I'd wear the sweater over a denim shirt but not a jacket...it adds bulk, bumps & looks silly.

No , I would not want to wear a sweater over a Denim Jacket, I am far too hot usually for all of that layering. But on her it looks great. She is so cute...I love that sweater she is wearing. It is gorgeous!

She does look adorable, but a jacket and a sweater? Good grief!! I would pass out!!

I love the cardigan, but I would never wear it over another jacket.

In the second picture, Katie looks like she just walked off the Dawson's Creek set. She looks exactly like she did back then. So young!!

lol - not unless I were freezing.

Certainly not a style statement I like.

She looks great in it. For me, it would just be too bulky and uncomfortable.

I tend to buy my denim jackets a bit on the large side, so layering a cardigan over it would look terrible. If I bought a slim fitting one specifically to be worn with a cardigan, that's another story. However, I'm not loving the look on Katie, so I'm sure it would look awful on me.

I don't even think I'd wear a denim jacket over a cardigan unless the cardigan was being worn as a top. Three layers are too many for me.
