Double D's

Do you know what's awesome? Double denim.
Seriously, it looks good. Take everyones favourite IT girl and bestie: Alexa and Pixie...

Now here is a duo who work the DD to perfection. They have followed the golden rule of DD and pulled it off.
In my opinion there are two rules to wearing double denim:
1. Always wear pieces which are a different washes/shades or colours!! and
2. Never "cube" denim* e.g.

When prime time Britney and Justin look this bad, you know that it's not ok! There is also an unspoken rule which is brought to light from this same example photo... always say no to a denim cowboy hat, they are eww.

Not having any kind of 80's hairstyle also deserves a mention. If you do in fact have a perm, fluffy fringe or some intense teased volume/height you may want to consider this picture and how to not look anything like it:

You can tell that they are all totally ready and willing to die for denim.

Enough with the bad, here is some good (and different) ways to wear DD!!






So you see, as long as you follow the golden rules and like each individual piece of denim (remember you can still actually wear them by themselves!!) you can't go wrong. Looking forward to many more well styled double denim combos over the next few seasons.
Thank you Chloe' S/S10 for bringing it back!
