Double Denim: How to pull it off

Hey $waggers,

Double denim first came into fashion back in the 80's and in the last few years has made a come back.... sort of. It's a statement look that you either love or hate, but there are certain ways to style this dynamic duo that will ensure you look stylish rather than just a wanna be cowboy. Here are our tips for both males and females for dressing dd to it's highest potential.

The first tip for pulling off double d is to NEVER wear the same shade of denim on both top and bottom. Yes I know, "but I saw Kendall Jenner wear the same shade of denim and she pulled it off". Yeah but she's Kendall Jenner, she can pull off anything. Black on black and white on white are exceptions to this rule, being such neutral shades they can be paired together and look bangin'. Denim styled jackets and jeans come in so many different colours; light wash, black, dark blue, white, just to name a few. So if you're planning on stepping out with denim on the top and bottom make sure both your pieces aren't the same shade of denim, it's just too much!

Second tip, as much as you may think adding a third denim item looks cool, it doesn't. Whether it's shoes, a bag, a scrunchie or anything else, DON'T. DO. IT. Double denim is the most denim there should be in an outfit. It's like chocolate, great stuff very enjoyable, but too much of it gives you a stomach ache.

Third thing is to be careful with the other items of clothing you wear with your look. Steer clear of extreme patterns and statement pieces. Double denim is a bold enough statement on its own so you should always pair it with basics. A dream combo is black jeans, a white tee and a light wash denim jacket. Pair this with a pair of white connies and you've got a killer casual outfit.

Last but most important thing to remember is BE CONFIDENT! Double denim is a bold outfit choice and it takes a lot of bravery to pull it off. But if you strut your stuff and believe that you look good, then your positive vibe will radiate and everyone else will think you look great too.
