Triple Denim With A Wooden Twist

A triple denim outfit with tan brown accessories to match

I wore this triple or double denim outfit a couple of weekends ago when it was boiling hot out. I think that was our last attempt at Summer, so at least I got to wear my new Vintage Levi’s Denim Shorts. Each time I go into Urban Outfitters, I always check out the latest selection for the vintage Levi’s, just to see if there’s any amazing new washes that I need to add to my collection and on one of the days, I found these! They are perfect in every way! I love the lighter, mid blue of the denim, but the fit is a classic 501 and they fit tighter than my darker wash 501’s, so I love them! I love that they are a bit longer too, to cover more.

I paired them with my Topshop Sleeveless Denim Shirt, to go for a double denim look but then I broke it up in the middle with a Tan Belt from Next. Funnily enough, I actually bought this belt while I was out before shooting these photos. I couldn’t find mine anywhere and really wanted a tan belt for this outfit, so luckily I was able to find one after searching around! The wash on this denim shirt is quite similar to the denim shorts though, but a bit lighter, so there’s just enough contrast for it to not look too uniform or too matchy, which is important to me.

To keep with the denim and tan theme, I chose to wear my Kurt Geiger Carvela Karen Sandals and my Michael Kors Selma Messenger Bag to complete it. I absolutely love these platform sandals as you know, since I reviewed them last week, so I think they are the perfect shoes for denim shorts and dresses! This Michael Kors bag as well, I always seem to wear it when I travel as it’s the perfect size for fitting all of my essentials in, but it also works really well for wanting something simple and tan. Now you might be wondering where the triple denim comes in since you can mainly see only two pieces, well, it’s in my watch! I’m wearing my Rumba Time Denim Watch, which is in an indigo denim, so it makes up for the triple denim and not double denim! I can never get enough of my denim!

I really hope you like this outfit on me – I’d love to know what you think! So please do leave me a comment and tell me your thoughts on my double or triple denim look here. I hope you have an amazing weekend too, especially if you are in the US and are celebrating Memorial Day! Lots of holiday time to be had!

    I really love your look, because I loooved denim and I know that many people don’t like “denim on denim”, but I simply love it! I liked the top and the shorts and the nice bag, plus the amazing shoes! I also loved the bracelets and I think you look very beautiful, like casual but sophisticated!

    If that weekend really was the last bit of this year’s summer then you’ve certainly seen it out in a fabulous outfit. 🙂 I think you’re right though. There’s certainly a cool nip in the air this evening.

    Those shorts are just gorgeous and I like the shirt very much too and how the sleevelessness (that word is too long and I might’ve made it up) of your arms balances with your legs. You carry off the multiple denim look so perfectly! I already think double denim looks great anyhow, so I don’t need persuading on that, but if anyone reading your blog is unsure on double denim then I reckon these photos might well help to convince them in favour. 🙂

    That denim watch is a wonderful finishing touch to the outfit and I love it. However, its presence prevents me from saying how timeless a look this is… 😉

    I think this might be, overall, my favourite of your 2015 summer photo shoots. A perfect outfit matched to a perfect location to showcase it. These photos are such a striking example of the visual power of a limited colour palette. You have a nice range of denim blues, a spread of different browns/sands/greys and then just your own skin tones – and no other colours are present in significance or required. It’s such strong imagery. Brilliant! 😀

      Thank you so much Steven 🙂 That’s really kind of you! I was wondering what this huge, chunk of text was going to say when I saw a big blog of it, ha ha. I’m really glad you liked it. And favourite of 2015? That’s a turn out for the books! Even compared to some of the pretty dresses I’ve worn? And you were just in time with that watch joke weren’t you 😉

    Oh, well I said it “might be” my favourite of your summer 2015 photoshoots. I’m not quite 100% certain as there’s some strong competition. I really love that 60s metallic dress too (the one I thought was futuristic). Also your beach photoshoots were terrific. So the metallic dress probably wins out on best individual outfit for summer but this entry today probably wins best overall photoshoot for summer because of the perfect marriage of outfit and location.

    Yeah, it was quite a chunk of text wasn’t it? Well, if I ever write too much just slap me very hard with a blunt object on one of my typing fingers. I only have two typing finger so that’ll put me out of action nicely. 😀

      Ha ha, no I appreciate the comments with lots of weight behind them, they are really thoughtful 🙂 I did love that dress too, I think those dress photos came out perfectly! I think I loved my Love and Lemons dress shoot too, that one was a gorgeous dress!
