Monogrammed Denim Is Happening: Are You Going to Try It?

Celebrities never cease to find ways to make us want to shop. The latest trend turning our heads? Denim jackets and chambray shirts embroidered with a sweet personal touch. This has “Holiday wish list” written all over it, which is why we’re bringing it to you now — so you have plenty of time to drop hints.

From left: Olivia Palermo’s chambray shirt is a celeb-fave style from Rails — but she’s in no danger of mixing it up with another star’s at the giant celeb slumber party we envision they all have, because she has her name stitched over the breast pocket. The company offers personalization up to 10 letters on their “Tyson” top for $178 here.

Lena Dunham, meanwhile, got her whole name stitched over the pocket of her Loft denim jacket. Most celebrity stylists will tell you to spend a little less on clothes and use the money you saved for a tailor; the perfect fit will make the garment look expensive. We think the same advice applies to adding a personalized touch to bag or a denim jacket; Dunham’s topper is only $49.50, and for an extra $10 or $15 at a specialty seamstress, you can easily add a fun, one-of-a-kind touch. (Breast pocket too in-your-face? Try the hem along the back of the jacket.)

Finally, our teenage style crush, Kiernan Shipka, wears her sweet pet name over her heart with a “Kiki”-stitched Madewell jacket, $118. This might also be the best squad gift ever — imagine getting you and your pals all matching jackets with an inside joke or nickname.
