There seem to be some controversial opinions on the use of double denim—should it match, or should it not? The answer is simple: do whatever you want! The beauty of denim is that there is no right or wrong way to wear or style it. Don’t get caught up in it being the same shade or having to be different shades in order to look good. You know what works on you and what you feel comfortable in. There is no way to look bad when you’re confident in your look.

spice it up

There is no rule on what you have to wear to pull off double denim. If you’re looking to start small, don’t overlook denim backpacks, hats, and accessories. All of these give the boldness and put together look you’re working for without the huge commitment. If you have no fear in commitment, try an all-denim look! If Britney and JT did it, why can’t you?

let it speak

Double denim is a bold fashion choice. Let it pop by wearing a T-shirt in a neutral or plain color. It gives you more flexibility in what to wear because you won’t have to worry about anything distracting from the look you’re trying to make. Discovering ways to re-style the denim pieces you already own can completely alter the aesthetic of your outfit. Throw your denim jacket over the shoulders instead of the traditional way—you just upgraded the outfit from casual to trendy chic.
