Hot Off The Press: Denim Styling Tips in Austin-American Statesman!

Clockwise from top left: Blank NYC Prairie Dog Shorts ($78) at Eleven Eleven; Current-Elliott Sleeveless Black Denim Vest ($278) at Luxe Apothetique; Vince Dark Grey Relaxed Rolled Jean ($245) at Girl Next Door; Ark & Co. Contrast Denim Skirt ($44) at Maya Star; Marc by Marc Jacobs Rolled Slim Penelope ($188) at Luxe Apothetique; A Fifty Street Button-up Chambray ($30) at Maya Star; (center) BCBG Generation Day Painter Sleeveless Button Down ($95) at Maya Star.
Denim....an American staple, a wardrobe must-have. Now that the temps are finally cooling down a bit, we are super excited to start incorporating more denim into our daily outfits (not that we weren't before...chambray and jean shorts were two of our summer go-to's). We were thrilled to spot some of our denim essentials in this article, written by Michelle Pimm and styled by Cristina Facundo, in the Austin-American Statesman:

"This fall, denim is anything but basic. Thanks to fashion-forward designs, textures such as frayed edges and distressed patchwork give you and instant edge. Leather panels elevate skirt silhouettes, and your trusted skinny jean appears in washed-out grays to essential black. The rookie closet staple, the chambray button-down, charms this season with printed silk sleeves or bleached polka dots. Take advantage of denim’s comfort with these local finds."
Thanks so much, ladies! Be sure to visit us and check out our latest fall arrivals, and while you're at it, swing by our sister store Co-Star...they have a fab selection of jeans from Joe's, Paige, AG, J Brand and more for men and women!
