Outfit || Double Denim With A Twist.

Double Denim. .

The trend that took on 2013 and is yet to lose relevance even in 2015, considering the short lifespan of ‘trends’.

I myself jumped on the bandwagon way back then with this first look after gathering inspiration from my then style crush/muse – Shala Monroque.
I experimented with the trend some more, adding a slight twist last year and this year with this look and this look.

All three times though, as with most other people and which seems to be the most common way to do the double denim trend, I wore a denim shirt on denim pants/skirt.

                               But Hey!
Another way to ease into the double denim trend asides the regular denim shirt on pants or skirt way? Why not try on a denim dress instead?

Remember my post on updating your work style? Nah forget what I said.
A quick way to update ‘ANY’ style and nail the effortless cool kid look? Drape a denim jacket over your shoulders and you’re set to go!
I’ve been wanting one forever but not actively doing anything about it so the other other day while heading to my catwalk class venue, I passed through the market and decided to see if I can find one. I didn’t find one in the color I wanted – light blue but I left with this and this dress also at a super cheap price! Yes to bargains!

I wore this to the woman in bloom exhibition that I talked about in this weekend bits post and slipped on my pink toms from this post instead of sneakers because it wasn’t really working and even though I’m a sneaker head, sometimes I do get tired of seeing people wear it anyhow these days because most don’t know how to pull it off and still wear it even when it clearly doesn’t go with the outfit.
I sound like a party pooper right? Lol, forgive me.
(This post on ways to style your sneakers might help though)

So what do you think of this look?
Have you done any double denim looks ( rhetorical question, I’m sure you have. Ha-ha!) , leave me your links please and comments too!
