Denim - If it's so Wrong, it's Right


chambray denim with maxi dress
I've pretty much "worn out" my denim button-up. And, maybe that's a good thing. Certain pieces are better worn out and washed a hundred times, like your favorite sweatshirt or in this case, denim. I loved it as an 80's baby cuffed and rolled tight at the ankle, loved it tye-dyed in the 90's and loved it cut-off daisy-duke style and now, I love it chambray or not. Target or H&M. Jcrew or Gap. Work or Play. No new trends here - just keeping a good one alive...

If it's so wrong to wear your denim shirt 3 times in a week...then it must be right.

Layered with Throw Back HI T-shirt and Leggings

Hands down....my favorite is the the backyard-throwback style. no doubt.
I'd give up any work day, ahem, I mean work outfit for an afternoon with my 3 L's.

What about you?! What's your pick...or is it just too much denim?!


P.S. Shanna shared a sweet little trick for making old scarfs cool again, worked perfectly for me! And, Molly shared these tips on layering for the colder months, inspired the double collar look!

P.P.S. Hope you're still on board for #whatsonyoursalad! I'm excited to share some healthy fun salad choices with you and see what you've created too! In case you missed it from last week, plan to post tomorrow (Link Up) and keep using the hashtag!
