I was a little skeptical about blue denim together but now I know if done right (like me, obvi) it's awesome. This was inspired by Erin....because she's awesome.

So no bruises today but I still feel like I just had a nose job... Like my face needed to be any flatter!

Wearing thrifted Gap shirt ($4), secondhand BDG jeans ($17), and Old Navy wedges ($15).

I love this look! I wore denim on denim earlier this week... I think the look done right can look great!
i love it- i know i could never pull off denim-on-denim, but you look great, as always (:
so glad you're not bruised!
Those wedges look great! They look like Gladiator sandals. I still have to buy myself a pair.
What Not to Wear actually didn't like denim on denim. I sure do disagree! It can be cool if you do it right.
It's almost workman-inspired, I like it! I think you pulled it off nicely. :) The blue of the pool matches, but I was afraid you'd fall off when I saw the picture!
As for jet lag... yes, it IS quite annoying. At least it lets me sleep relatively early since I'm so dead tired by then...

Don't fall in haha. Sorry your face hurts :(
I love this look. It looks great on you!

Oooo you did it so right. I love this look on you. If the shoes were red it would be a perfect 4th of July outfit.
I think you pulled this off quite nicely. Not everyone can do it, but you have successfully executed it.
you're definitely rocking the denim on denim :)
i like the d.o.d. (as a friend of mine used to call denim on denim), especially with this shirt (which if you ever get sick of, PLEASE send my way!!).
It looks great--not cowboy-ish at all! But something about you looks different. Different make-up??? Maybe it's the time in the pool. =)
love the denim on denim. so chic.
Pretty darling! I love you in jeans <3
Blogger went crazy, did you see my last comment?

Long time, my dear! Looks great, and I love the backdrop.
yes! i love the double denim look, I wore something similar to this yesterday! (which I will post on my blog soon)
great pictures , glad you didnt slip in the pool .. love the all denim and those were great shoes to wear with it
I've been thinking about rocking the D-on-D, so I've been hunting for the perfect top. I think one of the keys is skinnies. I really think it looks best with fitted bottoms.
I think you carry off the denim on denim look perfectly! And ouch! I'm glad you don't have any face bruises.
Wow this looks amazing! I'm loving the denim on denim look, especially since it's two different shades of blue!
looks really good, way to go!
I think this is about the only way double denim works - it has to be different shades of blue. Looks lovely on you :)
I'm liking this look!
You look fab! I think what makes this so successful (apart from getting 2 different shades of denim to match) is the modern cut of the jeans and shirt paired with some kicka$$ shoes. I'm taking stock of all the lovely style bloggers doing the d.o.d (to steal from Tania's comment) to possibly venture into that realm myself.
love the outfit!
I never thought I would like a denim on denim look, but you totally did it!
i just love this 'controversial' denim on denim look!
I haven't yet tried the denim on denim - I still have a mental block in re to it. But every time I see it on someone (like you), it looks really stylish. Maybe I just need the right top.

WB! It looks really good on you. I'm still not brave enough to do the denim on denim thing, though!
Cute top!!!!!
Love your sandals!
I don't think everyone can pull off a double-denim look Elaine, but you sure did!
BTW ... I'm your newest follower :)

I love the denim look. You pull it off nicely.
Rachael
very good combination.
One lighter than the other so it doesn't really look like you're wearing just one denim piece.

You look good this trend and you still look very pretty, Elaine!
Light and dark...that's the way to make it work. You look fab!

i think denim on denim works well when the shades are different like you did :) i love your denim top so much! i'm still searching aimlessly for one!
I love your shirt and your shoes!! Who would have guessed that I would like denim on denim!
Welcome back! Well sorta welcome back. You're not here anymore, so I'm sad, but I'll live. Hope your California adventure is going well!
I do think you pull this off really well, actually. The shirt is a great fit for you :)
love the simple match! and the shoes made everything look even better!! and while i'm looking at the pictures i kept thinking you would just turn around and jump into the pool lol

I don't really like jean shirts...but I love how you put this together! Great job.
Cute! Definitely not the "denim suit" that can go so wrong!
You are wearing this so well together! It's unbelievable! Love it :)
The Canadian tuxedo, and you're rockin' it. Calivintage IS awesome. Great style, all the time.
i totally put this exact outfit on the other day! not even kidding, almost the same exact outfit except for no skinny jeans. love it...i couldn't pull it off though...you look amazing. seriously.
whatever you're doing you're looking really good... have you lost weight? i'm digging this look on you - the top is fabulous!
