3 Ways; Denim, Denim, Denim

Since I have moved down to the island, I can count on one hand how often I have worn jeans. However there are more ways to wear denim. It does give a casual touch, but may be worn more than just in the weekend.

Wear a denim strap dress, layered over a t-shirt or frilly top. Dress it down with trending lace-up sandals or dress it up with wedges or clog-style heels.

Last days of summer, wear denim espadrilles with a white eyelet dress. You may also opt for denim loafers or sneakers for fall (like "these").

Espadrilles; Bamboo (similar styles "here", "here" and "here")

For a feminine style knot a button-down chambray top and wear it with a midi skirt.

Skirt Dressing

This little skirt number, is actually a dress. I often try to make the most of my clothes and wear a onsie as shorts or a dress as a skirt. I first wore this dress "here" and am not sure if I have ever worn it after. Sometimes it's good to re-invent the wardrobe you already have!

Borrowed from the boys

One perk of being a women in a mens world is that you can rate their closet and get away with it too. I knew that the day my BF bought this button down, that I was totally going to steal it one day and that day has come. Layering it with a leather top and a sparkly fringe necklace for a balanced feminine/masculine look.

Denim, Leopard and Leather

Pairing some of my favorites and I guess these materials are historic classics to begin with. 

Starting with Denim which was first sold in 18oo's to the working class people. Now every designer in history must have used denim at one point in their collection and I can't think  of a world without denim.

Leopard (animal print) was trending in the 1950's, mostly worn by musicians, models and movie stars. It was a rebellious thing to wear and worn around the bohemian movement.

and finally leather, which played a big role in the development of civilization, using it for basic needs up to 1300 BC. which might be one of the oldest materials that made it through out the years into fashion. 

Now how's that for you Monday morning education in fashion?
