After I wrote about the double-denim look<\/a> and predicted it would become a genuine fashion trend<\/a>, a few gorgeous outliers<\/a> volunteered to try the style or a variation thereof while others offered evidence that they were leaders of the pack<\/a>.\u00a0 (Please click the bloggers’ photos to see their full posts and additional pictures.)<\/p>\n

Mai of fashioni.st<\/a> was out in front with this picture from November.\u00a0 I was delighted by her denim jumpsuit because I was all over the jumpsuit concept in my second double-denim post<\/a>.<\/p>\n

That post also has great closeups of Mai’s Martin Margiela nail heel booties and Nars Kitty turquoise eyeliner<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Jennine of The Coveted exclaimed, “I thought I wouldn’t cave on this one, but it’s all I can think about!” She’s apparently a little shy, however, and has contented herself with sneaking around off camera<\/a> in double-denim separates. On camera, she’s modeled a chambray dress, which is a very wearable option for those who want a look that barely whispers “denim.” Shhhh. You have to be very quiet to hear it.<\/p>\n

Jennine had the good taste to wear her WendyB Diana ring with her G-Star chambray dress.<\/p><\/div>\n

Jennine’s handsome husband Rocky is happy to shout his love for denim. Jennine alerted me to the fact that Rocky was rocking double denim in this snap from The SF Style<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Is Jennine living vicariously through Rocky?<\/p><\/div>\n

When I wrote about the Gap’s promotion of\u00a0 the hard-core denim top-and-bottom look<\/a>, we all theorized that the style would only work in ad campaigns and on runways. Here is Fiona from Save Our Shoes<\/a> to prove us wrong.<\/p>\n

Fiona has two denim dresses in her post as well.<\/p><\/div>\n

Work With What You’ve Got went wild, adding denim accessories to her denim jacket and jeans.<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/a>

The denim purse blue me away. I wrote "blue" instead of "blew" accidentally just now but I'm keeping it.<\/p><\/div>\n

I think thrifting queen Sharon Rose looks spectacular in a faded Topshop denim jacket and darker denim leggings. Naturally, she got the jacket for a whopping \u00a33.99. I don’t know how she does it.<\/p>\n

Sharon Rose has me wanting denim leggings.<\/p><\/div>\n

As a bonus, Sharon put on her McQ playsuit just for this post.<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/a>

Sharon got this in November for \u00a34.80. She has mad thrifting skillz, yo.<\/p><\/div>\n

Finally, Stacy of taffetadarlings<\/a> deserves a round of applause for finding a picture of her cute self wearing a denim jumpsuit in 1976.<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"<\/a>

Her sister Kim had one too.<\/p><\/div>\n

After seeing Stacy’s picture, my first thought was, “One thing I’m sure of is that we’ll never wear yarn pigtail bows again.” My second thought was, “Never say never!” So … who’s up for starting a yarn-in-hair trend? Anyone? Anyone? ANYONE?<\/p>\n
