when it comes to wearing denim...it's usually best to wear only one piece at a time...unless you are a true cowboy...but if you just LOVE to wear your denim jacket with your jeans...here is a simple guideline to keep in mind...make sure the denims don't match...
either the jacket should be a dark wash and the jeans a light wash with a well-worn look...or vice versa...the jeans a dark wash and the jacket a light wash...
of course...this is one piece of advice that's not for men only...us ladies should take heed as well if we're ever tempted to go overboard on denim...
now...all that being said...the runways have been showing head to toe denim...is it for everyone? i think not...just like any "trend"...just because it is "in" doesn't mean it is right for you...
hop on over to wendy brandes blog (affectionately known as wendyb)...to see a great post on double denim...titled...fall into a texas tuxedo at the gap...actually if you do a search on her blog for double denim...she was kind enough to do several posts with pics from fabulous bloggers and their interpretation of double denim...
I've got more posts coming up too!
ReplyDeletei agree with you on the whole "never say never" but...i'm sticking to "never" for now =) at least for myself...
ReplyDeleteHa! I can't believe this, I had just shown a double denim outfit from Chanel cruise that I severely disliked but completely forgot the phrase 'double denim' and so Wendy mentioned it. And now here you are talking about it!
ReplyDeleteYeah, it's something that is best left unexplored, I think!
