The Right Way To Wear Denim-On-Denim

Denim-on-denim has been in trend since I can recall. It can look absolutely glamorous, but can also look drab if not done right. So how do we make it look ultra glam?

The Right Way To Wear Denim-On-Denim

The phrase 'Double denim' always reminds us of Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake, wearing cringe-worthy denim suits. This denim disaster happened 16 years ago at the 2001 American Music Awards. And I still have nightmares every single time I think about it.

Now we don't want to repeat that faux pas, do we? Just because Bey and Jay did it all wrong doesn't mean you have to.

1. Total beginner? Play with textures. Go for a denim shirt with white denim lowers or throw on a funky denim jacket over a tee and some jeans. We're totally crushing over this top

2. Try wearing denim in different shades - it'll add more drama to your outfit. 

3. Distress as much as you want! But keep the distress strictly to one garment, you don't want to look homeless now, do you? A denim shirt with heavily distressed jeans or vice-versa!

4. Always remember the darker the shade, the more highlighted your assets look. So wear lighter shades where you don't want to attract too much attention.

5. Dress it up, don't be afraid! Add another layer of denim with a cool distressed jacket. Or just add some layered chic necklaces to amp up the look. Denim-on-denim is not for the faint-hearted.

6. Or go all out. Graduate to a denim saree. And why not? Haven't you seen how gorgeous it looks? *adding this to our wish list*

Experiment! It's the best way to go with this trend and if you get lost, scroll back to the biggest denim disaster (as I mentioned earlier) and you'll find your way again.

We love this waterfall denim jacket from Stalk Buy Love! Hurry before it's sold out.
