Making Denim More Daring

Say goodbye to your dark washed skin-tight jeans and say hello to denim in all the  best forms! These are the newest styles to keep you looking fresh this fall.

We’ve all had at least a year in our lives when the only bottoms we wore were the popular and very unflattering jeggings. That uncomfortable material always seemed dependable,but little did we know that there were jeans that could be as in  as a Gucci belt. Here are some ways to incorporate denim’s daring new look!

#1: Cargo

Our newest obsession is military inspired wear. Printed  on skirts, shorts, and capris, this denim allows the texture of the cargo to break-up the uniform  navy skinny jean. This style lets you rock a tough and casual vibe while still maintaining your spunky personality. Whether it be on jackets or “Kim Possible” pants, these details will be sure to finesse your back to school game.

#2: Zippers

Bold zippers are making a statement larger than scrunchies in the 90s! Focusing on cut-through zippers will accentuate your lines and figure. Horizontal and vertical zips incorporate an effortlessly fresh look. Add a tape belt or scarf around your waist to frame where no zipper has been before. This piece gives you the ability to incorporate a sense of edge into your style.

#3: Double Wash

Wild denim with multiple washes can be seen worn on the fiercest of celebrities. From Rihanna to Gigi Hadid, patches of darker denim will spice up even a plain t-shirt. Pair this pair of jeans with a bandage top for the perfect outfit.

#4: Embroidery

Whether it be on VSCO or Instagram, everyone is utilizing embroidery on their clothes. Flowers, quotes, and patterns create the ideal statement. For a DIY, we thrifted a pair of mom jeans and sewed on tiny details to demonstrate our individual expression. By embroidering yourself, you can save money while still maintaining your cool,girl energy.
