But I do not mind the same shades together on others. &nbsp;Do whatever you want. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-on-denim-4#post-2244814 Tue, 21 Dec 2021 00:08:42 +0000 Sloper 2244814@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As <b>Mary Beth </b>says - why not?&nbsp; </p> <p>I like the look of denim on denim - especially when the pieces have the loved and worn look.&nbsp; But I can also visualize a dark and tailored denim suit in very modern tailoring.</p> <p>Having some trouble getting images to load but check out these two outfits.&nbsp; One is dark denim on denim:<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.matchesfashion.com/us/products/Bella-Freud-Astrid-double-breasted-denim-trench-coat-1427036">https://www.matchesfashion.com.....-coat-1427</a></p> <p>one is light denim on denim (and note the break between the denims by using an untucked shirt:<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.matchesfashion.com/us/products/WARDROBE.NYC-Curved-hem-denim-jacket-1386235">https://www.matchesfashion.com.....et-1386235</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-on-denim-4#post-2244759 Mon, 20 Dec 2021 16:54:40 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2244759@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’ll have to look when I’m back home in a couple weeks, but I think people where I grew up wear jeans jackets pretty much only with jeans. Wearing one over a dress would likely be interpreted as having been in a bind of some sort. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-on-denim-4#post-2244747 Mon, 20 Dec 2021 16:05:01 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 2244747@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this is a Choose-Your-Own-Adventure type of thing.&nbsp; &nbsp;Why not?&nbsp; We've had forum members put together some beautiful denim suit looks recently!&nbsp; &nbsp;If you're curious to try the look, it's an inexpensive experiment, if you have vintage and thrift stores in your neighborhood, and some patience.</p> <p>I currently own three pieces of denim altogether, so I'm seeking my adventures elsewhere.&nbsp; &nbsp;But if the right long sweeping denim jacket and some flares or bootcuts came my way, I'd pounce.&nbsp; &nbsp;I have some vague idea of Italian style, a sort of Dolce &amp; Gabbana look, with lots of ornate accessories, or some velvet or jacquard textures.&nbsp; &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-on-denim-4#post-2244742 Mon, 20 Dec 2021 15:44:12 +0000 Anonymous 2244742@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lol! &nbsp;That doesn't mean I think my opinion carries any weight - it just is what it is. &nbsp;Different things appeal to different people! &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-on-denim-4#post-2244741 Mon, 20 Dec 2021 15:43:05 +0000 JAileen 2244741@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>Hahaha! &nbsp;I heard the term Canadian tuxedo when my snarky son was remarking on my outfit while we at a restaurant. &nbsp;It might have been before I discovered YLF. &nbsp;I was wearing a thrifted denim jacket decorated with sequins. &nbsp;Of course, I thought I looked pretty good. &nbsp;:)</div><div><br /></div>I wore a denim shirt and jeans … yesterday! &nbsp;The shirt is actually tencel, &nbsp;and western style with pearl snaps. &nbsp;And most of it was covered with a Christmas sweater. &nbsp;Actually, I would have liked them to be closer in color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-on-denim-4#post-2244688 Mon, 20 Dec 2021 03:03:25 +0000 bridgie 2244688@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa, I have to chuckle.&nbsp; Actually, I have not been able to do it.&nbsp; I have thought about it and considered it, but decided against it every time.&nbsp; So, that is the reason I am here asking approval.&nbsp; Now that I have everyone's approval (except yours), I still don't know if I can do it.&nbsp; Thanks for your always honest opinions. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-on-denim-4#post-2244686 Mon, 20 Dec 2021 02:33:23 +0000 bridgie 2244686@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, I am so happy to hear that you mix denim colors freely. I was wondering if you do.&nbsp; Sometime, when you do (even if it is next summer) please post a pic.&nbsp; Maybe you already have! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-on-denim-4#post-2244685 Mon, 20 Dec 2021 02:30:10 +0000 Anonymous 2244685@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well even as a Canadian ( ref the original Canadian Tuxedo ) , I just can’t do it . I know it’s often trending , and I know many in the fashion community wear it , but I’ve never had one moment where I considered it or thought it was a look I wished to emulate . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-on-denim-4#post-2244684 Mon, 20 Dec 2021 02:25:58 +0000 bridgie 2244684@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Cat, Thank you!&nbsp; I have always used shoes to speak for me.&nbsp; I have a pair of flat yellow pointy rockstud Valentino look-a like, (yes, I do) haven't worn in a while now ----, just thinking, ha. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-on-denim-4#post-2244683 Mon, 20 Dec 2021 02:13:29 +0000 bridgie 2244683@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>rachy, that sounds like me.&nbsp; I have to think about Everything!&nbsp; Let me know what you come up with! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-on-denim-4#post-2244682 Mon, 20 Dec 2021 02:11:53 +0000 bridgie 2244682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stag, I love your neutral denim.&nbsp; I would hear that in a heart beat.&nbsp; No questions asked. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-on-denim-4#post-2244678 Mon, 20 Dec 2021 01:37:05 +0000 Jaime 2244678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it is on trend, and I did wear mismatched denim just last week when I threw on my darker denim jacket with lighter wash jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-on-denim-4#post-2244677 Mon, 20 Dec 2021 01:32:51 +0000 Angie 2244677@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Personally, I wear denim on denim all the time in Summer! And don't worry about the denims mismatching or matching. My faves are combining white with blue denim, or blue and white with blush denim. I also combine light and and dark blue denim.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-on-denim-4#post-2244669 Mon, 20 Dec 2021 00:04:47 +0000 The Cat 2244669@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Dark wash jeans with a yellow or coral denim jacket sounds fun and fab,.

Never say never.&nbsp; For me, and considering age, it seems to be trying to hard!&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />I am going to try and wear not only different wash denim, but also different colors.&nbsp; For instance, yellow or coral denim jacket with dark wash jeans.&nbsp; Umm, just don't know.&nbsp; We will see.&nbsp; Maybe in the early spring. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-on-denim-4#post-2244627 Sun, 19 Dec 2021 19:14:57 +0000 bridgie 2244627@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Star, Thanks.&nbsp; Oh, I agree with you.&nbsp; No, if I do start wearing two different items in denim they will not be matching.&nbsp; I'm not ready for that, LOL.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-on-denim-4#post-2244625 Sun, 19 Dec 2021 18:53:41 +0000 Star (Lise) 2244625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it may actually be trendy now to wear the same wash but I prefer not to. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-on-denim-4#post-2244622 Sun, 19 Dec 2021 18:14:30 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2244622@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don’t see why not. </p> <p>I prefer not to have a perfectly matching set in exactly the same wash— varying shades of the same color appeal to me more—but for other people that could work well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-on-denim-4#post-2244613 Sun, 19 Dec 2021 17:33:09 +0000 bridgie 2244613@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know this has been discussed from time to time, but I am wondering what is trending now.&nbsp; Do we mix denim.&nbsp; Most all of us have denim jeans and denim toppers.&nbsp; Do you wear them together of, if you wear denim jeans, nothing else denim?&nbsp; All comments and/or suggestions appreciated. </p>
