Breaking Rules

This is what happens when I feel like I have nothing to wear: I start breaking rules. I’ve said before that when wearing a denim on denim look you shouldn’t wear similar washes. Go for a dark wash and a light wash to break things up. Well, I decided to wear two light washes. I don’t know why. Maybe the heat is getting to me. But you know what? I kind of like it! I wore my polka dot chambray for some interest and hoped the bright lips and big glasses would distract you from my Texas tuxedo!
I hope everyone is having a nice Labor Day weekend! I did a little shopping and got to hang out with my hubby who I don’t get to see during the week!
I’m also wondering if there are any specific posts you would like to see on Jeans and a Teacup. I usually do outfit posts 3 days a week which is really the most I can do since my photographer (aka, my husband) works long hours during the week and can’t always take my pics. But I’d like to mix it up with some other fashion/beauty related posts. I have some ideas in mind but wanted to know what kinds of posts were your favorite!

you know what – I love it when you break the rules. loving it!
You are the cutest thing ever in this look with your ice coffee….breaking rules looks good on you (and works!) How about doing makeup tutorials or show us what products you use?
I love this outfit! I think the shoes, your glasses and gorgeous red lips definitely break up the look:)
Happy Labor Day weekend to you! Hope you have enjoyed the long weekend:)
Cheers,
Alyson
you look so cute in this. A year ago I would have been like CANADIAN TUXEDO, WHAT ARE YOU DOING? but now I just think its chic and on trend. oh blogging, what have you done to me? 😉
The shirt has a print, I think you've broken up the look enough, and it's so cute!
Love your mason jar too!
Chic on the Cheap
Even though they are both light washes they re not too similar so it looks great.
I think this look is great! I don't know that there are any rules for the denim on denim trend, except just try it on, and if it looks good then wear it! Love your sandals too!
xo honestly, b.
If rule breaking always looked that fabulous, rules wouldn't stand a chance! I love those sandals.

Love the hear to toe denim look. Very true to your blog title actually, I love it! With the lip color and the thick rimmed glasses this is very Jenna Lyons/J. Crew. Super fashionable – great post!

I absolutely love this denim on denim look! The top is a bit different so the light washes totally work! I hope you had a great Labor Day!
I love the denim on denim look. I've seen a number of people really pull it off (including you) but for whatever reason, I don't feel like I've gotten it quite right yet. I'll have to keep trying different washes to find the right combination. I have mostly stuck to a lighter chambray on top and a dark bottom, but still don't love it. Maybe I'll have to try the two shades closer together!
Great look. Love the denim on denim.

You wear those same washes alllllll day long!!! I am loving it…in fact it's one of my faves!!! And that pic of you sipping on your straw??? Adorable!!
I love this on you! I just wore a denim on denim to work last Friday with different washes and like it. I would say this is more a mono chromatic look. Have a great short week!
