Ruffled or unfinished/frayed hemlines were huge last year and transitioned to this year too. That’s definitely one way to wear denim differently. And if you can’t cop yourself, you can just DIY at home.

6. Wear a dress over your jeans.

Yes, it’s practical, stylish and trendy, especially if you get it right. While our Muslim sisters have been wearing like this for the longest time, this trend made its way into the fashion world but quickly became a fad. However, I think it’s ultra-chic if you do find a calf length button down dress. Try pairing it with your jeans and see how that look turns out.

7. Denim shirt dress.

Feminine, cute and the perfect sunny weekend casual outfit.

8. Overalls.

This is an underrated piece of garment that an be paired with so many closet basics and either dressed up of dressed down depending on the look you’re hoping to achieve.

9. Dare to be bold.

Wear jeans that feature embellishments, lace, distressed jeans, those with patchwork, etc. You could also get creative and do some DIY say by adding African print fabric on your denim be it to cover the pockets or distressed parts or as an artsy patchwork.
