Remember this top? I love it so much that I featured two ways to wear it.
Well here’s where it all started.
Last spring-ish, one of my friends was bringing some clothes over to ask my opinion about whether she should keep them in her closet or give them to Goodwill. All of the pieces she asked me about are now lost on me… except one. She brought her denim top over and was considering giving it away. That officially began my denim crush. It took a while to find the right one but it’s one of those pieces that I’m glad I searched for because it’s so perfect. {Francesca’s, $38}
After convincing her to keep the denim top already in her closet, we were talking about ways to wear it. I remember telling her to pair it with basically anything on bottom… shorts, skirt, pants… as long as they weren’t denim.
And since then I have eaten my words every time I turn around. I swear, every magazine I flip through is featuring celebrities in solid denim. {I sent her a few pictures and told her I was wrong… and she could totally rock denim on top and bottom!}
Here’s just one example…

So I decided to give it a spin…
When I decided to do the denim + denim thing, I envisioned light colored pants to go along with my light colored top. And then when I got to my closet, I realized I didn’t have any. So I went with the dark denim on bottom and I was ok with the outcome. My suggestion is to wear really great shoes with this outfit. Actually that’s my suggestion with every outfit.
I’ve recently found #blogtober14 so I’m linking up to share some fall fashion. You can check out Helene’s blog here or Taylor’s here. They’re sponsoring a linkup with posts everyday in October.
