Denim on denim is a trend that I absolutely hated for almost all my life. I thought only a few people could pull it off and ten year old Daisi vowed to never wear it. Fast forward about ten years later when I became immersed in the blogging world and saw blogger after blogger pulling it off like a pro. After all these years I finally realized the one trick that makes denim on denim look amazing on anyone and I will be sharing it with you all today!
Incorporate Different Denim Washes Into Your Look
The trick to always rocking denim on denim is to incorporate different denim washes into your look. Wearing different washes and colors really breaks up the look while still keeping it uniform. My favorite way to do this is to wear a lighter wash on top and a darker wash on the bottom.
Extra tips
- Accessorize, accessorize, accessorize! I usually keep my accessories very minimal but when wearing denim on denim I love to load up on them! Adding a pair of sunglasses, a necklace, rings, and a clutch adds a lot to the look.
- Add multiple textures! I opted for a crotchet choker, a faux leather crossbody turned clutch, and some colorful pom key chains.
- Add color into the mix. Whether its with bright yellow and blue pom keychains or with fun colored denim, adding color to the mix gives a fun pop to the outfit.

You can never go wrong with any kind of denim!
Denim on denim is one of my favorite looks. You are correct, mixing and matching washes and even types of denim is the key. Add some chambray to the mix and you’re ready to go.

LOVE this outfit! Denim + denim is so tricky but you make it look so great!
This looks fantastic! You’ve inspired me to put together an outfit with some of the items in my closet.
I love denim jeans but I’ve never tried a denim coat/jacket
Denim on denim always freaked me out – was always scared of looking like Justin Timberlake when he was with Brittney in their matching denim – but you’re right – as long as theyre different washes why not!
You look great, but I’m still not sure I’m ready to try the denim on denim look.
Such a great combo! I’ve always been scared of denim on denim, too, but I’ve seen so many people rocking the look (like you) and now I’m tempted to try it myself!
I love a great Texas Tuxedo (another name for a denim on denim look) and you totally rocked this style!
Thanks for the fabulous tips! That denim trench is amazing. I have added it to my "wish" list. =) Cheers!
