Denim-on-denim may not be an entirely new fashion concept (Canadian tuxedos, anyone?), but this season, all-denim looks have been given a serious refresh (read all about it here). Colorful denim sets are popping up just about everywhere, giving a new life (and meaning) to the classic trend. But that's not to say the tried-and-true head-to-toe blue-jean outfits are going away anytime soon. Which is why we decided to turn to Instagram to see how some of our favorite fashion girls are wearing denim-on-denim right now, and we found so many cool, fresh takes. Ready? Behold your ultimate how-to guide to rocking the Canadian tuxedo the 2018 way.
