How To Rock A Denim Dress



Style blogger Flávia from Criciúma, Brazil shows us how a denim dress doesn’t have to be prom queen cheesy or Diesel Island sexy—there is a happy medium! Here she rocks a Damyller denim dress with atiered skirt and fringe edges with Gabriela Faraco accessories. Two great Brazilian brands and one Brazilian babe? We’re all over it! But she’s not just cute, she knows her stuff! She works heavy, powerfulmetallic accessories into the look so that her aesthetic is balanced with the weight of the denim garment, but still spunky enough to throw off the whole tiered-dress-frilly-factor. Bottom line? If you wear a denim dress, go bold all the way! A slinky silver chain just wouldn’t cut it in this outfit.

How To Remove Odors From Your Vintage Denim (Or Vintage Anything, Actually)!



We all love shopping vintage. There are few things closer to actually treasure hunting than picking through the selections at your favorite second hand & vintage store. But truth be told, sometimes the history behind your new favorite denim skirt or chambray dress comes through in more ways than one. We’re talking about odor. Want to zap the unpleasant aroma ASAP? Follow this tip we found on Glamour:
Janie Bryant, Mad Men costume designer, says “All you have to do is mix one part vodka with two parts water in a spray bottle. It works every time—that’s the power of vodka for you.”

Exposed Denim Workshirt Collar As An Accent



Today’s denim tip is all about style: the exposed denim collar, worn under a layered pop-color top. Check out style blogger Hanna’s bold-but-simple outfit combo. Even though the focal point of this outfit is primarily the hot pink top, the collar peeking out at the neckline becomes as important as a statement accessory. After this formula is executed, you just need a sleek pair of skinnies and some chic flats or lace-up boots to bring it all together. Try it out this week!
