In my mind, the ‘90s are synonymous with excessive denim-wearing. Since “Friends,” “Ellen” (yes, she did have a show in the nineties) and “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” are a few of my all-time favorite TV shows, I’m constantly observing their outfits and picking out what I would actually wear. While some people nowadays have set “fashion rules” stuck in their heads such as denim on denim, white after Labor Day and mixing metals, I don’t think fashion should have any rules. Today I put together three denim-on-denim looks to showcase the greatness that two pieces of denim in one outfit can add to your look!
Look 1: I wanted a large contrast between my two denim pieces, so I opted for a light wash denim button-up and medium wash boyfriend jeans. I kept the rest of the look moderately neutral with a linen tee, leather, and black boots.

In my mind, a denim jacket pulls any look together perfectly, regardless of what you’re wearing on the bottom. As for my shirt, I kept everything low-key with an army-green tee. To continue with the darker shades, I paired some leather oxfords with the look.

This look is almost ombre starting with the white and grey pullover and ending with the black boots.
