The Anatomy of a Great Denim Look

Rihanna is the queen of cool (read denim). So we studied, analysed, and ultimately chalked out the style equation that makes her look so on-target. If you’re four parts attitude, one part denim, then you’re almost as #wickedcool as Rihanna!

The Cap
A black, patent baseball cap gives the outfit a focal point and prevents it from looking too blue.

The Extras
Accessories are the jam to the ultimate denim sandwich. A li’l sparkle (Chanel always wins), keeps things glam and a little less casual.

The Shirt
A well-fitted denim shirt is a wardrobe must-have. Plain, embellished, embroidered—take your pick. Just make sure you own one...or like, a 100!

The Clutch
Adding a denim clutch may be an OD, but a leather one in similar hues adds a new texture to the mix.

The Skirt
Distressed jeans are easy; a distressed skirt is next-level. Remember:length makes all the difference!

The Shoes
When you’ve got so much denim on, a pair of nude heels is all you need. It breaks the monotony, but still ensures your denim doesn’t lose the spotlight.
