Finally headed back home from SF and it's safe to say that I CAN'T WAIT to be home. This weekend's trip marked the 10th consecutive week that I haven't been home more than 5 days in a row and while I LOVE traveling, sometimes a girl just wants to not live out of a suitcase for a hot second. (side note: I don't know how Chiara Ferragni does it!)

As I've packed and unpacked for many an adventure recently, one thing that always comes with is my denim jacket. Denim jackets are as much a staple as jeans. I don't know why, but it took me up until last year to figure that out. Now I won't go ANYWHERE without one; always have a backup in the car! My obsession is real: case in point  here,  here, and  here 

 Much like a chambray shirt, denim jackets make for the perfect "third piece" and for us LA girls they're a go-to for layering from day tonight. You know, when it gets like 66 degrees out in winter time! Anywho, if you happen to be in the market for a new or second denim jacket (that-a-girl), here are 10 of my faves for any budget:

I feel like splurging on a classic denim jacket makes sense because it's something you're going to wear over and over. When it comes to more trendy styles with embroidery and patches, I love going to the F21s of the world.
