STYLE GURU STYLE: A Twist On Denim

When you think about denim the first thing that probably comes to mind is a pair of classic blue jeans. Those iconic pair found in Fashionista’s closet. They come in all styles, shapes and colors. However, lately denim has been taking on new forms with other things likes tops, jackets, chokers, you name it. Giving a twist on the iconic denim we’ve come to know.

In Balenciaga fall 2016 ready-to-wear collection runway show, was filled with many two piece combinations focusing on finding elegance in a new way for today. The show was filled with numerous more dressed up, classic styles that the everyday woman could wear to work. There was as well denim jackets, top and skirts featured showing just how versatile these pieces can be to style a more elegant, simple, yet classic look.

I tried to follow suit with this idea when creating my look. I took a pair of white skinny jeans from American Eagle Outfitters, and paired it with a scalloped high neck denim top. This recent purchase of mine is something that I will find myself continuing to gravitate towards. It’s the perfect piece to dress up or dress down to create the classic look. For accessories I added a pair of slip on brown sandals from J.Crew, a taupe colored cross-body bag, and stud earrings.

Denim is something that will never go out of style. Whether it be with the a pair of blue jeans or a simple top, it can always be styled to create that simple yet elegant look.

Get My Look: 1. Top. 2. Jeans. 3. Sandals.
