How to Wear Denim on Denim | The Canadian Tuxedo?

Reading Time: 3 minutes Day to day, my style is pretty laid back and casual. I love dressing up for special occasions, but Monday through to Friday I really enjoy just wearing comfy, casual, simple styles.  I recently grabbed these Rockstar Jeans from Old Navy and since then I’ve pretty much either been wearing them or my Mott & Bow Jeans whenever I go out.  Recently though, I was running to the store and I just threw on my Old Navy Jeans, this old denim button-up, and my new Cougar shoes, and it dawned on me just how much I loved the whole denim on denim look (aka, the Canadian Tuxedo).

 The Trick to Wearing Denim on Denim

While I know some people just aren’t fans of the denim + denim look, another big reason people are nervous to wear pieces of denim together is because they aren’t quite sure how. Well, let me tell you this: it’s super easy. All you have to do is make sure your denim pieces aren’t overly matchy-matchy. Pair light denim with dark denim, or even black denim. This will help you avoid that 1999 Justin Timberlake + Britney Spears look.

My Current Favourite Denim

Right now, my favourite jean pieces have come from Old Navy, and Mott & Bow.  Both the Rockstar Super Slim Stretch Jean from Old Navy (worn today) and the Mott & Bow Orchard Jean are super comfy, stretchy, and easy to wear.   

The Shoes I’ve Been Obsessed with (that totally work for denim + denim)

The other thing I love to pair with my denim/denim outfits are a good pair of slip-ons. These Cougar Chico Leather Slip-On shoes have become my go-to pair lately and I just love how they complete this denim ensemble. So, now I just gotta know: would you wear denim on denim?

    Wow! You are looking so beautiful in these pictures. Thanks for sharing this amazing post. Fashion is a popular aesthetic in a certain time and context, especially in clothing and you truly have a good taste of fashion and style selection. Denim is perfect for any occasion and never goes out of style. I’m a jewelry lover and I’ll definitely try this look with my nose piercing jewelry. In these days Nose Piercing is a huge trend. Thanks for the lovely post..

You all know that I LOVE camping.🏕 We’ve been You all know that I LOVE camping.🏕 We’ve been camping for years and we’ve learned a lot along the way - like how to reduce our single-use items. Our camping SuperHabit is ensuring we always leave a campsite the way we’ve found it, or better. We utilize reusable containers, prepped meals, and water jugs to ensure that everything we pack in, we can pack out and use again. Learn tips and more at Superhabits.ca.  #HappyConciousCampers #WhatsYourSuperhabit
[AD] It drives me a bit crazy when I see littered [AD] It drives me a bit crazy when I see littered single-use items, like water bottles, on hiking trails. Single-use items are used for a short time, but they have a lasting impact on our environment. I believe nature is sacred and we need to cherish it, support it, and respect it. That’s why when I go on a hike I always make sure to bring my reusable water bottle.

Carrying a reusable water bottle is a simple Superhabit that you can implement anywhere you go! So this summer stay hydrated and stay environmentally responsible with a reusable water bottle! #WhatsYourSuperhabit

I love heading outdoors with a few delicious treats and soaking up some sunshine. Picnicking in a responsible and environmentally conscious way is really important to me and that’s why I implement easy Superhabits - like using reusable containers, water bottles, and glassware - whenever I head outdoors.
