Double Denim.

"I wish I had invented blue jeans", said Yves Saint Laurent and with great reason. I think the love for denim is the greatest. Whether it be jeans, jacket or shirt, denim is one of the most versatile pieces in our wardrobe and when paired together (denim on denim) create the perfect combination. Denim is a staple in every key outfit. A few denim icons that deserve a mention when styling the denim on denim look; Elvis Presley, Marlon Brando, Marilyn Monroe and of course Mr James Dean.
 
I owned my very first pair of jeans at the age of 9 and rocked the double denim (renown for being a "cute little girl" - I guess every mother wanted a denim clad child) which is quite embarrassing now that I think of it. But once again it has emerged as the greatest trend like it was back in the 60s (or in my case around '05) and will continue to steal the fashion limelight.

These are just a few of my favourite denim looks that have been styled by both fashion bloggers and models (pictured above).
