And what better way to celebrate than by shrugging on the classic shoulder season staple, the denim jacket? If it was good enough for everyone from gold miners to rebels without causes, a solid denim jacket should be a part of your wardrobe, too.

But if it doesn’t fit right, it won’t make many appearances. It should be snug around the shoulders with the shoulder seam sitting on or just below your shoulders. The sleeves should hit just at your wrist — any further and the jacket will seem way too large for you. And unlike most jackets, it should fall right at your hips. If it drops below your beltline, keep shopping.

Be Authoritative, Not Authoritarian Raising honest kids requires a lot of patience. As kids age, and their life changes at scale, it’s critical they feel comfortable being honest with their parents. That means thinking hard about punishments. “Parents should be willing to at least give their kids credit for talking about [things they might get in trouble for.],” says Child psychologist Gene Beresin, who heads up the Clay Center for Young Healthy Minds at Massachusetts General Hospital. “They don’t necessarily need to change the rules. But parents who only say ‘You broke the rules and there’s no talking about this thing,’ have kids who don’t believe they can talk to their parents.” When kids break the rules, they should have some consequences for that behavior. But discussing and explaining those rules, while also praising your kid for being honest, will help them continue to be honest with you in the future when the stakes could be raised.
