Denim Is Back and Here’s How To Add It To Your Wardrobe

Denim is making a huge comeback and we’re not just talking about jeans! It was a huge trend in the 90’s for everyone’s wardrobe to be full of denim, and the trend is back and here to stay, so we’re here to help you decide how to style it. Get ready to transform your wardrobe with this great trend. 

Go Thrifting

Our first tip before we get onto styling is to go thrifting for your denim! Denim is an expensive material generally as it is labour intensive to make, which also makes it quite bad for the environment. So, when you thrift, you will be helping the environment, you will save money and you’ll get much better value that will last you for years. 

You will find pieces worth hundreds, like vintage Levis, that you can get for a fraction of the price. So, avoid full price pieces and go thrifting to make the whole process much cheaper and also more fun! 

Oversized Denim Jacket

The best place to start when it comes to adding denim to your wardrobe is with an oversized denim jacket. This is such a simple piece to style, so start by wearing simply with jeans (black or blue, don’t be afraid of double denim), wear with shorts and boots, style over your going out dresses for something a bit dressier or even over a tracksuit for a laidback weekend vibe. This will be a staple in your wardrobe for years to come, so it is worth investing in a good piece. Thrift shops are the best place for this, so have a good look around! 

A Great Pair of Jeans

I know we said that this trend isn’t just about jeans, but it’s got to be mentioned, as they’re an absolute wardrobe staple that everyone should have. It is so important that you find a good quality pair that fit you perfectly, as this is a base for every outfit that you can easily build on. Go for a classic fit that will last you decades, like a simple straight leg jean that is great quality and a shade of denim that will go with everything. 

Denim Shirt

Another classic to have in your wardrobe is a denim shirt, the ultimate to ease you into double denim looks! Tuck into jeans or skirts, wear open with a tank top and denim shorts or tie around the waist over a dress for a laid back yet dressy look. Denim shirts are nice and warm, so are great to tie around the waist for a daytime event and then it can be used as an extra layer into the evening.
