MAKE IT LOOK EASY

Denim brings a certain masculine vibe with it, as well as that unmistakably casual appeal.

So it makes perfect sense that when you're styling denim, you can create a little friction by bringing in something more feminine.

Think crochet, lace, pretty details , or even choosing a denim piece that has already done some of the work for you, like a gorgeous denim skirt.

 

But then… You can REALLY double down.

Because what if the crochet and lace were actually made from denim?  Yep.

You get the masculine, casual feel of denim AND the softness and femininity of crochet or lace, all wrapped up in one piece.
 

The balance has basically been created for you.

No complicated styling formula. No standing in front of your wardrobe wondering what on earth to put with it.

No extra effort required on your behalf.

Other than being brave enough to give it a go.And resilient enough to accept a few:

“OOOOHs…” and perhaps even a couple of “ARRRRRs…...

As we get ready to break out our toes, it's time to warm up and practise your Boss Friction Formula.
 

Let's take a look at the stylish friction happening in the outfits below.
 

You'll see camo Bermuda shorts (those knee-length shorts that finish around the knee) paired with striped polo tops, and camo shorts and pants teamed with graphic tees.

At first glance, these pieces might seem like they're competing with each other but look closely at what's been added to create that beautiful balance between masculine and feminine...
 

• Necklaces
• Earrings
• Handbags
   

These little feminine details completely change the conversation.
 

Then we have blazers with denim Bermuda shorts (or jorts, as they're now being called), heeled thongs, oversized sunnies (red is a huge trend right now!) and cute handbags.
 

Here's the thing... Nothing matches.
 

And that's exactly why it works.
 

There are contrasts everywhere.
 

Relaxed with polished. Masculine with feminine. Stru...
