Denim rules: 4 do’s and don’ts of rocking jeans fashionably

Denim is always a fashionable choice that rarely goes out of vogue, rain or shine.

Here are the four golden rules to help you rock your denim in style.

1. Aim for a middling fit

Colour combinations are critical when doing double denim justice, but equally important is the fit of the denim you’re wearing. Make like Goldilocks and aim squarely for the middle. A relaxed denim shirt up top and some dad jeans (straight, but not too baggy) are your best fit when attempting to don double denim right now.

2. If in doubt, use less material

There’s one obvious reason why denim shorts are easier to use in a denim look: there’s literally less material than a full pair of jeans, so the impact is softer chic. This is a good shout for those who want to dip a toe into the trend without anyone suspecting too much. A white or black lightweight knit and slip-on suede sneakers will dress this outfit up while keeping you looking classy in what is actually a very comfortable, easy-to-wear look.

3. Black jeans + Light wash jacket

Pairing black jeans with a light wash jacket is the perfect way to get a grunge-inspired getup without needing any musical ability. While experimenting with extras such as a borg collar in cold season can take it up a notch, it pays to keep both elements as classic as possible. Then all it takes to finish is a crisp white T-shirt and some neat footwear

4. Lighten up

It goes without saying that any all white look prefers to be sat next to a decent tan. So, if you’re naturally darker skinned, you can recruit white jeans or a blue denim. If you’re naturally paler, however, dark stones and creams are your entry route.
