Denim on Denim

Thursday, June 21, 2012

Wearing head-to-toe denim can be a bit tricky. I didn't want it to be mistaken for overalls (been there, done that, thank you mom) nor like a cowgirl. So I split the all denim look in half with a wide belt. The gray blazer also softened the look with another color of interest. If neither worked to draw viewers' eyes away from all the denim, a sparkling statement necklace ought to do the trick.

Happy Thursday, everyone!

necklace: Ann Taylor oval pearlized (may still be in stores; pendant version)
blazer: H&M draped blazer (similar)
shirt: J.Crew boy shirt in Indian voile (similar)
belt: Express (this season's sold here)
ring: Forever 21 faux stone (sold here)
jeans: Hollister boot destroyed (sold here)
bag: Longchamp medium LM metal tote (sold here)
shoes: Zara court shoe with snakeskin toe (similar)

  1. You made it work well! The top almost looks periwinkle in the picture! I definitely love the idea of the belt, jacket, and necklace to offset the denim look! :)
