Denim on Denim

I'm still not sure how I feel about this one. I'm seeing lots of denim on denim.  At times it makes me wince, and at other times, I'm like 'hmmm, ok, that looks kinda cool', in a Steve McQueen sort of way.

After mining for photos of denim on denim, I think I am almost sure that I still don't know how I feel about this trend.  One thing I do know for sure: like all clothes, how you wear it is really important, almost more so than what you're wearing.

The only way denim on denim can work is to mix contrasting hues (dark with light, no mono-hued mixes).  And, another thing that's really important is to keep it sexy & casual. Unbutton that extra button, leave it partially untucked, tie the waist, wear really feminine or really tough accessories.

I may give it a try one day....and I'll be sure to share.  In the meantime, I've shared some pics to show different ways to wear denim.

So, denim on denim.....a DO or a DON'T?? What do you think?
