Colour Confident: How to wear coloured denim

Recently I've been a little bit obsessed with brightly coloured denim. I have a little collection happening in my closet and am kind of excited about this spring trend!  At the same time though, I've seen/heard some people shy away from those beautiful brights because they have no idea how to wear them. I had one girl tell me that she flat out couldn't wear them because she thought she was too large in the lower half.  Crazy, I say!

I believe that anybody can wear coloured jeans, you just have to know how to do it right and pair them with other colours or patterns that compliment each other. After all, we're not trying to attract so much attention to your uncomfortable areas.  The general idea is that you don't want to look like a highlighter. You need to balance that bright colour with a more calming colour so you're not a head-to-toe walking rainbow.

I thought that I would start posting pics of coloured jeans incorporated into outfits so you can get some new ideas on how to wear them, and what to pair them with. So over the next couple of weeks, I'll share a few different colours with you all! I'm calling this little series "Colour Confident" because I want you to be confident in those colours!

So let's get to it!

With this outfit, I paired my bright turquoise jeans with a beige knit tank and brown cardigan. I added some accessories that contained bits of turquoise as well to tie it all together.

This look is really very simple, but doesn't that pop of colour just take it to another level? Love!  Are you down with the coloured denim trend?
