A little while back, I outlined my Spring Essentials Checklist for 2009, and ever since, I've been busy tracking down each item, on a budget. Starting today, I'll be presenting my finds, beginning with the ever-essential denim jacket. Wear one with white pants and a tee, a patterned skirt and tank, a tunic and black leggings, or over your favorite dress. Here are 11 of the most versatile yet on-trend jean jackets that I've found, priced from just $19.99 to $89.99. For details, just click any image in the widget below. Enjoy!











Leia, I also have the fear of looking like a sea of denim, so I've usually paired it with something non-jean/darker (navy or black pants) or khaki.
I do like how they're more fitted and cropped, this season. I think that shape is more flattering, all around.
