For years we’ve had to set aside our favorite denim jackets whenever jeans were involved. We’ve had to buy colored or black fabric pants so we can wear our jackets with more than just dresses. But no longer. Finally we can all thank our lucky stars that it’s no longer tacky to wear denim with denim. In celebration, let’s embrace these 10 adorable denim outfits that give variety and flare to the clothing articles we hold most dear.
Let’s start with what we know. Now that the denim on denim faux pas has passed, the favorite denim jacket pairs great with jeans and a basic shirt underneath. This particular look uses a slightly over sized jean jacket and light washed denim put together in two close, but still different shades.

Here’s a more subtle look. The chambray shirt allows for a watered down denim pairing. With a pair of dark washed jeans to match the light shirt, you might not even think of this as denim on denim look.

This big red scarf is a great accessory to balance out all that denim. These washes are very similar, but adding the pops of plaid and animal print break up that consistent color scheme. This look has the basic foundation of denim outfits, but the accessories give it extra style.

The classic denim skirt is a fashion piece every denim-lover needs at least one of. While this denim on denim look is essentially the same as the rest with a chambray shirt tucked into denim bottoms, it has the extra twist of those bottoms being an adorable button down skirt. Those sleek black boots add another layer of style.

The denim on denim trend doesn’t have to be limited to summer or fall. This look takes it all the way into winter by layering a sweater over top of the denim shirt. The length of the long sweater adds definition to the overall look and a totally cozy feel.

There will always be less denim-y denim pieces to pair together. These frayed white pants only hint at their denim fabric. Meanwhile, the off the shoulder style of the shirt gives denim an unexpected style. This look is cute, without most of the denim on denim risk.

This look is totally adorable and perfect for the summer. The denim shorts are already out, why not pair an over sized denim shirt on top? It’s comfy and casual with a cute pair of heels to knock the whole ‘fit up a notch.

I am a huge fan of the sweater with shorts option when the weather starts to get cold. This look takes it a step further by layering a jean jacket over that sweater, and I am here for it. Extra style points for wearing it only on your shoulders like the Pink Ladies from Grease!

We all love our crop tops. This look takes that love and gives us the crop top jacket, complete with a fraying hem to match that of her shorts. The cropped white top underneath it all completes the cute and basic outfit. This is another of the classic denim outfits that will make you master street style!

Only a celeb like Selena Gomez could have an ankle-length fully denim jacket. The washes are the same between her pants and her jacket to create a cohesive look only broken up by the white bra underneath. It’s the best kind of denim suit. Meanwhile, I’m obsessed with that minimal fringe on the bottom of her pants and jacket.

The simple white tee is the perfect pairing for a denim on denim outfit. Each component screams classic. Tucking in the shirt and that thick black belt give the look an additional fun retro feel.

This look gives fringe a good name. The subtle frayed hems of both the shorts and the shirt give the look a cohesive feel to further match up the light chambray shirt with the medium-wash shorts. The shirt itself also comes in a cute and unexpected crew-neck style. This is one of the denim outfits that add unique flare to your style!

Who doesn’t love a good pair of overalls? This outfit totally rocks them in a cute straight-legged cut. They stand out nicely against the light-washed jacket and that ascot is a perfect accent to elevate the whole look.

We have nothing but love for the denim vest. It’s the denim jacket option for when it’s too hot outside for your actual denim jacket, or you just want a style change. This look is especially cute pairing up a classic white tee with cute white sneakers! This is one of the most casual denim outfits!

If we’re bringing back denim on denim, we should also definitely add these awesome flare jeans into the mix. They’re another great style choice to mix up your denim on denim look. At its core this look is just another chambray shirt tucked into jeans, but it varies from the basic set with that choice of jeans. You may for the most part only be wearing denim with denim, but the opportunities for these outfits are still endless! Stop shying away from buying whatever denim article of clothing catches your eye. Clearly you can’t own enough, and there are plenty of ways to change up the style. Take these inspiring denim on denim outfits to heart and go put together some major looks of your own.
