How to Stylishly Wear Denim on Denim

Denim is, after all, the people's fabric—it's just too popular to limit to one single item. "The beauty of denim is that it can transcend all these different styles.

The key to pulling off the look is having the right balance. Break up your look with staples like a white tee or blue button down. Opt for a lighter wash top with a faded finish or denim with embellishments, like beading or sequins

The easiest way to do it? Pair new with old.

I love mixing old and new. I think it's really fresh and timeless at the same time. Like a vintage trucker jacket, and then wearing it with a pair of black jeans. —Matt Baldwin

The best way to pair to denim pieces together, whether it's a denim shirt and jeans, or a denim jacket and jeans, or even a denim jacket on a denim shirt, is that the level of wear should be different on the items. One thing I wear a lot is a raw denim jacket and a pair of jeans, but my jeans are super worn in. So my denim jacket can be the same fabric, but you would never know because the jeans are two years old and super faded. —Kiya Babzani

I'm a big fan of colored denim this season, and I love it when it's paired back to a vintage-looking denim jacket. —Scott Morrison

Or mix light and dark.

If you're going to pair denim on denim today, you need to have some contrast, like a lighter colored shirt with a darker colored jean. The Canadian Tuxedo I most remember is the Justin Timberlake version from 15 years ago. It was two shades of the same denim (three if you count the hat), both of which were washed down to a flat, mid-blue indigo shade. The wash was also bad, so that didn't help

"Meet Sultana Nazif"

My name is Sultana Nazif, I am 17 years old. I was born in December (best month of the year) I loveee reading books and am also a planner I always like to be organised. The apps on my phone are arranged from darker colours to lighter colours. I am studying to become an Engineer InshaAllah. I have six younger siblings I hate when things don’t go my way and i like being in control. I try my best to be nice to everyone I also love listening to music I am so Indecisive 😂. I think African teenagers nowadays are very diverse with their sense of style and fashion statements, both girls and boys! Everyone should be able to dress how ever they want to and should feel free of being judged. For what they wear because at the end of the day you only have to please yourself. Do you and stay true to you because there are gonna be haters anyway🤪

"Meet Beauty Queen Imani Shagari"

I’m Imani Shagari , a student reading Architecture and I’m one of twenty other children. Coming from a big family has shown me how important supporting other people can be to their growth. I constantly live by the quote “Always remember that you are absolutely unique. Just like everyone else.” It motivates me to help and support people without feeling afraid or threatened by their growth. Instead it helps me to see the best in people and that everyone has their own gifts , we just need each other to help show those gifts. As a young black girl, I would encourage other girls just like me to love themselves and also believe that they are beautiful without the beauty standards set up by society and social media.

What Do Older Generations Misunderstand About Teenagers Today?

What stereotypes about teenagers do the adults you know seem to hold? How does the media portray people your age — and what, in your opinion, do they get wrong? What do you wish you could explain to adults in general to dispel some of these beliefs? In “ Taking Away the Phones Won’t Solve Our Teenagers’ Problems ,” a psychology professor writes about rising levels of anxiety and stress: Teenagers are struggling with anxiety more than any other problem, and perhaps more than ever before. There’s a good chance that it is anxiety that is driving teenagers (and the rest of us) to escape into screens as a way to flee fears. Across most types of anxiety runs a common thread — difficulty coping with feelings of uncertainty: something today’s teenagers have more than their fair share of. They have uncertain economic lives: Unlike previous generations, they can anticipate a worse economic future than their parents. They’ve also grown up with uncertain truths and unre
