Trend Spotlight: Denim-on-Denim
In my recent jean trends post here, I shared that denim-on-denim is having a major fashion moment—but it can be tricky to master. Wear it wrong, and you risk looking like a 2000’s throwback (looking at you, Britney and Justin). But when done right? It’s cool, chic, and modern.
How Do You Nail the Denim-on-Denim Trend?
Investing in the right pieces is the easiest way to get denim-on-denim right. And the gorge Veronica Beard denim jeans and matching denim vest (set above) is a slam dunk.
But beyond choosing the right set, here are two simple ways to make the trend work for you:
✨ Mix Denim Tones – While an exact match is an easy, fail-safe way to wear the denim-on-denim fashion trend, you can also try wearing varying washes together for an interesting, stylish look. For example, you could wear a light denim shirt with dark-wash jeans or white denim with classic blue.
✨ Use Accessories to Add Contrast – Break up the denim by adding a belt, statement jewelry, or a structured bag in a contrasting color. I personally love metallics or rich brown tones with denim—they add warmth and elevate the look.
With these simple styling tricks, you’ll take denim-on-denim from tricky to totally foolproof!
Outfit #1 – Dressed-Up Denim
The best thing about a matching set? You know it works—no styling stress required. Perhaps not surprisingly one of my favorite brands, Veronica Beard, has the chicest denim set this season. It is already on the dressier side thanks to its dark wash and sleek silhouette, but you can elevate it even more with intentional shoe and accessory choices.
For the first look, I paired the set above with pointed-toe black booties to create a long, lean line. The dark booties + dark denim combination naturally elongates the legs, making the look even more polished. I added lightweight lucite and gold hoop earrings along with a matching hinge bracelet to bring in a little sparkle. And finally, I finished off the look with modern sunglasses for that extra touch of glamour.
This outfit is incredibly versatile—perfect for dinners, graduations, showers, or even casual parties and events. It’s an easy, sophisticated look that makes you feel instantly put-together.
Outfit #2 – Casual Cool Denim
One of the best things about a denim set? Versatility. With just a few simple swaps, you can take this chic co-ord from polished to perfectly casual-cool—elevated and stylish, yet relaxed enough for daytime errands, coffee dates, or a casual brunch with friends.
To create a more laid-back vibe, I layered the structured denim vest over a classic white tee with subtle puff sleeves—a small detail that adds softness while providing a little extra arm coverage. Instead of sleek booties, I opted for chic skin-tone sandals.
This versatile, casual-cool look is one you’ll reach for again and again!
This Set Is Worth Every Penny!
As you can see, this set is incredibly versatile. You can dress it up, dress it down, and wear it to countless events. It truly is THE chicest denim set! But beyond just looking great, it’s also a smart investment.
When a single outfit works for graduations, casual workdays, dinner with friends, and even parties, you know it’s a wardrobe workhorse that you’ll reach for it again and again. Making the cost per wear totally worth it.
✨ An outfit that saves you time, makes you feel amazing, and works for nearly any occasion? That’s a fashion win!
