Denim makes me happy. Whether it’s a casual pair of boyfriend jeans, or a more dressy pair of high-waisted pants, I get excited about great denim finds. And just for the record, “denim” is no longer just a great pair of classic jeans.

The word is no a catch all for tanks, button down tops, dresses and pants in various colors and washes. So you can imagine when I found this cold shoulder top with ruffle layers in DENIM, I was over the moon with excitement.

Denim is found in everybody’s wardrobe and thanks to its diversity, denim is now a fabric you can wear everyday and just about anywhere. In fact, when you think about it, for every mood and for every season there is a pair of jeans or the perfect denim coordinates that you can rock and is likely appropriate for the occasion. And at the office, denim is no longer just allowed on Casual Fridays. That doesn’t mean your favorite pair of weekend jeans full of holes, rips and tears should be worn at your traditional workplace, but I have worn these great denim dress pants by JIBRI to the office and work-related events on a few occasions. It’s all about how you style it!

As always, thanks so much for stopping by! And stay tuned for some great holiday fashions coming your way on NikkiFreeStyle.com.

Fashionably Yours,
