I couldn't resist wearing a little denim on denim over the weekend! It's kinda fun to wear the same material but slightly different. It's also really comfortable! I found this shirt at a Goodwill last month for $3 and I couldn't say no. I really couldn't see myself spending $25+ for a new one when I'm not sure how often I'll wear it. But now that I think of it..this shirt could look equally cute tucked into a floral skirt. Maybe I'll try that tomorrow!

Denim is definitely YES!It looks amazing!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely Yes! You look great in this outfit and like your hair on those photos
ReplyDeleteI generally don't like denim on denim, because most people either don't do it right or cannot pull it off, or both.
ReplyDeleteBut you did an excellent job! kept it simple, used two different tones and added some cool accessories - Good outfit!
Just found your blog and you are adorable! Love your style! ~Liz
ReplyDeleteloos great! I love the shorts :)
ReplyDeleteyou're totally rocking the denim tuxedo! denim on denim can be tricky, but you definitely did it the right way!

ReplyDeleteMara!! :) I have never been a fan of denim on denim, but I think you've changed my mind. Your paired these two denim pieces perfectly... and don't get me started on the shoes! ahhh I LOVE! Happy Thursday sweetie.

thanks for visiting!
ReplyDeleteas for the outift, super cute! i dont think i personally can do denim on denim but those shoes def. make the outfit!
I'm not a denim on denim fan generally but I do like what you've done!
ReplyDeleteI wasn't crazy about this trend either, but your interpretation is fab! Love the shoes too :)
ReplyDeleteso adorable, dearest! xx
ReplyDeleteYou can seriously pull off any look! Love it!
ReplyDeletexoxo
I think YOU look great in denim. I, however, have a hard time pulling off a look like that.
ReplyDeletepsssssh, normally i'd say "no" (hello, canadian tuxedo), but then you gotta go lookin' all cute with it.
ReplyDeleteYes..yes yes....It looks great on you...I have to try this too...Great tip, sweetie:) Kisses and have a wonderful day:)
ReplyDeleteMuah
Love the look. Especially for the 4th of July!
ReplyDeleteYou look adorable! I recently bought a chambray shirt and have been wearing it over floral dresses as a light jacket (since it's been so cold here lately!). I'll have to try it with jean shorts sometime.
ReplyDeleteSo funny that you thought I was waiting in line for Eclipse! HAHA!! Oddly enough I do want to see the movie since I read the books, but I'll probably wait for it to come out on DVD.

Love this! You look great and the shoes and bag are perfect!
ReplyDelete(Seriously where did you get those shoes...I want.)
I love the bag!
ReplyDelete-B
Is there any look you can't pull off!? I love this! You look so very cute!!
ReplyDeleteHave fun in SD for the 4th of July! :) xoxo
I work at Gap and denim on denim is (supposedly according to company marketing and our huge chambray push during the spring) *the thing* now. I can't believe that shirt is from Goodwill! It looks like something we sold for $54.50 last month! Love it!
ReplyDeleteSeriously Mara, who else could pull this off?!
ReplyDeleteabsolutely adorable!! very well put together, love it!!!
ReplyDeleteNormally denim on denim is a no no in my opinion but you pulled it off! Looks cute!
ReplyDeleteNever new how I felt about denim on denim but you totally rock this! CUTE shoes too! Have a wonderful holiday weekend!
ReplyDelete<3
You TOTALLY rock the denim on denim look, Mara; I, on the other hand, am not sure how it would look on me - thus the reason I have never tried it myself. I think denim on denim can be a hit or miss; it definitely depends on the wearer. :)
ReplyDeletei've never really been a fan of denim on denim but you are totally pulling it off!
ReplyDeletei love your shoes!
xx
girl how do "break all the rules" and always look great!? love it!!
ReplyDeletep.s. if you have a fave pic from when you were little, i'd love to include you in my Be Young feature tomorrow!
i love the denim on denim trend and you pulled it off so well! i think you'll be suprised by how much use you will get out of your chambray top! i wear mine all the time. ;)
ReplyDeleteso cute you look gorgeous as always!!
ReplyDeleteThere is a show on Vh1 called undateable. They totally talk about how denim on denim is supposed to make you undateable to girls. But man, you can pull it off!
ReplyDeleteYou look gorgeous!! I think you can rock the denim on denim hands down. But then again you could rock a plastic bag woman :) so gorg! xx
ReplyDeleteCan't say I would have ever tried it before, but you are rockin the denim on denim! You look great! :)
ReplyDeleteit depends on what kind of denim. i mean the shade of colors and the style. because some denim on denim looks too much. but i have to say look really great denim on denim. i mean....u really pulled it off. not many can do it. btw, ur shoes look really fabulous
ReplyDeleteWork it, lady! You look marvelous!
ReplyDeleteI am amazed! I usually dislike this style, but on you I love it!
ReplyDeleteyou got that shirt for $3!?? HOW WONDERFUL!!! and its so cute!!
ReplyDeleteLove that you got this from Goodwill, Mara! I need to remember to go there more. You look fantastic, as usual. I love your hair.

p.s. I am doing a blog next week that is comprised of fellow bloggers' 4th weekend, so email me your fav picture.
i love the black accessories with the demin! they give it that polished/edgy look! very nice. :) where do you go thrift shopping?
ReplyDeleteI swear you can pull off anything! Looks great on you. I like the Jacaranda in the background, too...LOVING them blooming all over SB right now!
ReplyDeleteyou are so lucky you can pull that off! i think it would look ridiculous on me. but i definitely think it's a yes.
ReplyDeletelove the denim on denim look for you. pretty sure i'd look like a moron if i tried it, so i'll probably just live this trend vicariously through you cause you look hot! :).
ReplyDeleteThis is really Awesome! xxx
ReplyDeleteYou did the denim-on-denim look beautifully! I think the key is to mix different weights of the fabric -- gorgeous. And of course those shoes are KILLER.

I've always been a fan of denim on denim (mostly because it's easy and I'm lazy). You look gorgeous, as always!
ReplyDeletei've never been a fan of denim...but you make it look so stylish, my dear!

Love the look! You can pull off the denim on denim so well - I think I prefer the shorts to jeans, keeping the denim from being too much denim!

ReplyDeletei love your lookbook posts! you've really pulled off the denim on denim look nicely, and i love the bag.
ReplyDeleteSO perfect. And I love the shoes - perfect finishing touch!
ReplyDeletex
You completely pull it off. I was never really a fan (though I did wear a denim jacket and jeans back when I was a young teen)...
ReplyDeleteBut you really suit it. x
I've never really been a fan of denim on denim, but it works on you! My younger brother used to wear a denim jacket with denim jeans all the time. We called it his Canadian Tuxedo ... which is a quote from 'Super Troopers', but I'm sure t also has some sort of cultural reference, haha.
