The Double Denim

I have always been a huge fan of denim. Be it a jacket, pair of shorts, shirts, chinos or the good ol' jeans, denim is a wardrobe staple that I can't do without. While the classic denim with a crisp white shirt is my favorite go-to outfit, I have been loving the double denim trend this season. Unlike most other trends, the denim-on-denim look can be quite tricky. But if you put together your outfit carefully and choose the right piece of apparel, no one can stop you from looking like a million bucks. Be it the runway or a high street brand store, denim has been spotted everywhere this season and that too, in a variety of silhouettes, hues and finishes. Recently, we did a fun shoot with Nine West (more on that in the next paragraph) and while hunting for the right outfit, I came across this jacket at the Mango store. The moment I saw it, I knew I had to create a double denim look with this gorgeous piece. While I didn't want to opt for a head-to-toe denim outfit, I decided to break the outfit with a fun white T-shirt, that is perfect for summer.

The spring-summer 2015 collection at Nine West is every shoe and bag obsessed individual's delight. For this outfit, I was looking for something metallic and sporty. These super comfortable and stunning metallic slip ons caught my eye. These babies were just made for this outfit, and I think, a pair of footwear like this is perfect to wear while traveling from one state to another (basically, airport hopping), shopping with your friends or just hanging out for fun. I love how it adds some subtle glam to this look. As for the bag, I was desperately hunting for a backpack, but finally zeroed in on this beautiful (and spacious) light grey bag. Stock up on all your summer essentials in this one, because there is lots of room for everything.

You can give this look a sports-lux spin by replacing the t-shirt with a fun graphic or sports tee and then, trade those slip-ons for a pair of high top sneakers. Opt for a messy high pony tail, keep the make up clean (if you are not a fan of bold lips, go for a brown or nude shade) and keep it minimal on the accessories front, by just adding a chunky watch and a pair of aviators or retro lennon reflectors. Voila! You are ready to rock.
