As popular as the denim-on-denim trend (aka “Canadian tuxedo”) has become, I still had yet to give the look a try. But when I scored this vertical striped blazer on sale last week, I instantly knew it would add just the right amount of structure & polish to my favorite chambray shirt and distressed jeans. Finished off with the most comfortable flats I own & a crossbody bag, this is comfortable & easy weekend style.
What I’m wearing:
Forever 21 chambray shirt (similar here or here), Gap blazer (similar – extra 20% off w/ code EVERYONE),
Forever 21 jeans, Old Navy oxfords (similar), Forever 21 bag (similar here or here), Bracelets: Vintage,

This is one of my favorite looks to date. LOVE the blazer and the denim on denim combo. Those oxfords are fabulous ~ one of my most comfortable pairs of loafers is from Old Navy too. Also {and I think this all the time} your skin is flawless!

I'm still skeptical of the Canadian tuxedo look, but I have to admit I like this 🙂

IT's not technically a Canadian tuxedo though. Thats all denim, one color, head to toe! I like this, but isn't it a bit hot?

Ashleigh,
Haha – I know…I had to make it my own! 🙂 It was really hot here in NY all last week, but it finally cooled down this weekend a little bit; just enough for me to wear these light layers! 🙂

Thinking the same Jen said re: those oxfords because I've still only worn mine twice. 🙁 Need to auction them off on your site, or use your cute pics on a Poshmark listing! haha.
Love this look, and how the blazer breaks up the denim. So cute for a summer to fall transition.

Great outfit. Has anyone ever told you — "you look like Kelly Preston"?
Q…
Kim – I start to think I couldn't love your style and more than I already do, but then you put something up as simple as this look and you make it SO fantastic! Style inspiration to me you are! LOVE!

I love the pop of neon color under the collar! It's a nice touch of color since the denim and stripes act as a neutral and are pretty simple!

Such a great pair of oxfords; I think the fact that they sans laces makes them much more versatile!
