35: Denim Dress. And More Denim Threads.
Another 2-in-1 post today, guys. I am trying to wrap up posting the 30 for 30 (definitely it ended up being a lot more than 30 outfits) and show you some other outfits I have worn lately, as well. Today is all about Denim. It is the casual, feel-good fabric that we wear year around, even more so once Fall starts.
This is the second time during the remix where I have worn my Denim Shirtdress on its own, without layering it with something else. This time I took out its own Denim Sash and added this Mushroom-Colored Python Belt instead. I layered my White Cami underneath and left the top button undone. As far as accessorizing True Red Lipstick and a Silver+Turquoise Bauble Necklace were all I needed for some oomph. Do you yet own a Denim or Chambray Shirtdress? Another Versatile option in my opinion. I linked a few cute ones, below.
Dark Wash, Long-Sleeve, Chambray Shirt-Dress w/ Long Sleeves & Gold Buttons: Express (similar by Calvin Klein, best deal), (gorgeous Madewell option, love this), (denim patch-work style by Jones New York, great deal, love this), (fit+flare option by Gap, love this).
White, Nylon-Stretch Camisole w/ Lace Trim: White House Black Market (very similar by Express, on sale), (gorgeous, sequined option, love this), (this year's version in white by WHBM, on sale), (2nd option by WHBM, best deal).
Taupe, Faux Python, Skinny Belt w/ Rectangle Python Buckle: The Limited (very similar by Ralph Lauren, best deal), (similar by Banana Republic, great deal, love this), (similar by Michael Kors, on sale, love this).
Silver, Sparkly, Globe Drop Earrings: Fred's Jewelry (similar, on sale, love these), (similar, best deal).
Turquoise, Navy + Silver Bauble Necklace: The Limited (similar, gorgeous cluster necklace, best deal, love this), (gorgeous turquoise option, great deal, love this), (similar by Ralph Lauren), (similar w/ genuine stones, fine jewelry).
Bronze, Metallic, Glittery, Bootie Sandals w/ double Buckles off the side: DSW (similar by Blowfish, great deal, love these), (similar strappy brown gladiators, best deal, love these), (similar by Naturalizer, on sale).
And, since this is the last time I remixed my Denim Shirtdress for this challenge, I wanted to show you all the ways I have worn it.
So, twice on its own - once with the long sleeves unrolled, once layered with my Black Cardigan and last but not least on top of my Bright Yellow Skinny Pants. What's your favorite? I like today's styling but I love it over the pants - unusual and I was skeptical about it at first, but I loved how it came out.
(To view all of my 30 for 30 items and rules for this challenge, click here.)
Here is (in a way) the Texas Tuxedo for you guys lol. But no, the scarf I am wearing is not a bandanna (though it looks like it). It is a long silk scarf in a python print. I finally wore my Denim Pencil Skirt which I paired with a White Ruffled Tee and my Denim Vest. The blues on the denim pieces are similar but not quite the same wash which is better. For an additional pop of Red, I wore these Jelly Sandals once more this year (since it was warm). Not only do I look like I belong in Texas but also totally American in my Red, White+Blue. What do you think? I actually ended up liking this casual outfit worn on an errand day and chasing after Vivian in the playground.
Hand Jewelry:
Royal Blue Glass Beaded Long Necklace w/ Silver Fireballs (worn as a bracelet): An Accessories Boutique (similar, best deal, love this), (similar, great deal, love this), (gorgeous option in teal, great deal).
Gold Stretchy Chain Bangle: Express (similar by Kate Spade), (gorgeous option by Madewell, great deal).
Olive Green/Gold Rhinestone Bangle (part of a set of Bangles): A Random Boutique (similar by Givenchy, great deal, love this), (set of 3 rhinestone bangles, best deal).
White, Cotton-Viscose, Short-Sleeve Tee w/ Ruffles on the front: The Limited (very similar), (similar by WHBM, best deal, love this), (gorgeous option by Anthropologie).
Denim Vest in Medium Wash Blue: c/o Pelinki (New) (very similar, great deal), (similar in BF style, love this), (fun option w/ red buttons, best deal, love this), (light wash, great option by J. Crew).
Denim, Medium-Wash, Pencil Skirt: Express (similar by Current/Elliot, love this), (similar by Buffalo, great deal), (similar by Forever 21, best deal, love this).
Red+White, Python-Print, Skinny Long, Silk Scarf: Casual Corner.
Red, Jelly, Bow Sandals w/ Sparkly little Stones: Il Cammino (similar + a great deal), (similar 2), (ballet flat option).
P.S. Linking with Alison, Caitlin, Claire, Doranda, Jo-Lynne, Lauren, Leeann, Marissa, Megan, Molly, Rachelle, Sarah, Shea and Tara.

I love the way you styled the denim, I especially like the denim shirt dress. It is great how many ways you can style the one piece, I need to get better at that sort of thing.

ReplyDeletegreat casual outfit, we always call denim on denim the Canadian Tuxedo, but I think Texas works also
ReplyDeleteThat's a great denim shirt dress! I also love the styling as a shirt over the yellow skinnies. The necklace in outfit 1 is gorgeous plus I like the way you tied the scarf around your neck in the second outfit.
