There are so many different ways you can wear denim, but the denim skirt is a new trend that we are 100% behind. Worried about pulling off a denim skirt? Think if it as wearing denim shorts – you really can’t go wrong! Here’s some inspirations to get started in your denim skirt journey.  

1. With a T-shirt  

Go super casual with a loose tee look. You can add some color/ glam to your outfit with a choker necklace, a colorful or gemmed headband, or a pair of colorful shoes. Speaking of shoes, this look is best paired with sandals or converses to stick with the casual vibe.

2. With a Sweater 

A denim skirt should be a new staple in every girl’s closet because you literally can’t go wrong with styling it! 

Another option is to pair your denim skirt with a sweater to keep warm on chilly days, but without getting too overheated (perfect for Pittsburgh weather!). With this look, you can either wear a cropped sweater, tuck your sweater into your skirt, or let it hang loose – you really can’t go wrong!  

3. With High Boots  

High boots can dress up any jean skirt, making it the perfect going out outfit. Pair your boots with a matching colored long sleeve tee to complete the look, adding the bonus of not needing to bring a jacket! 

4. With a Leather Jacket 

The ultimate date night / going out accessory is the leather jacket. Pair your leather jacket with a black denim skirt to create the perfect night time vibe. Add sheer black tights and combat boots to finish off your look or you can wear the skirt / jacket solo.  

5. With a Crop Top 

For a more girly twist, pair your skirt with a crop top. The trick is to have the crop top end just where your skirt begins / with a tiny patch of skin showing, so a high waisted skirt is your best option.  

6. With a Graphic Tee 

Meet your new game-day outfit. Pair your favorite school team tee (H2P) with a denim skirt & you’re ready to cheer on your team. Bonus: you can make it a sweatshirt instead for chilly games!
