Denim Shirts - Raunchy, Ranch Hand, Restaurant or Radical?

When I was a server at Red Robin, I had to wear a denim shirt. Now, this wasn't a sexy curve-conscious number—it was a men's size golfer's small (think terrible puffy balloon shirt), which, on a woman's size xs, had to be the most unflattering thing ever. 

Oh, and not to forget the beige pants and Bugs Bunny tie—rockin'.

Denim shirts are here again. 

My Red Robin PTSD has left me feeling somewhat panicky about them. However, something tells me they'll be the new urban plaid, so if you want to be ahead of the game, search for vintage denim shirts on Etsy. 

In my experience, Wrangler has done the best vintage ones.
