Denim on Denim

I kind of embraced the denim on denim look right from the get go. I find as long as my shades of denim present a sharp contrast and I throw in a few colorful accessories to break it all up- I’m good to go. I found this chambray top during a shopping craze at the J.Crew outlet a few weeks back (sales are insane right now), and I absolutely love the light shade- so perfect for summer. Beyond these shorts I’ve been pairing it with white jeans and white denim shorts. A bigger contrast, but technically more denim on denim!

So, friends.. are you in or out on this trend? Do tell!

    Unfortunately, living in Canada and denim on denim being called “The Canadian Tuxedo”, it always gets a good laugh when it’s worn here, but I love it regardless!

    Love that shirt! I have been looking for a chambray shirt for ages, but just haven’t found the right one yet.

    You know, there has been as much said about denim-on-denim as there has been about no white after labor day. I got myself a light breezy chambray top recently, which I pair with dark skinnies. I agree with you-as long as the shades are different, why not?

  5. I love the look of denim on denim, and I’m always sure to combine different shades/weights of fabric like you did here. Love this!
