How to accessorize colored denim

There are tons of ways to wear colored denim. Choose one of our favorite styles to look super hot in one of fall's biggest trends.

Go simple up top

There's nothing wrong with putting your brightest colors on the bottom, but you should probably tone down your top to keep things balanced. If you choose bright-colored denim pants, stick with neutral colors like white, black or gray for your shirt. If you want a little color on top, choose a simple striped top or a shirt with a small pattern, but make sure the color in the shirt matches your pants well.

Add more color with accessories

Since your shirt is a neutral tone, put on a few more pops of color with your accessories. Wear a scarf or jewelry that's the same color as your pants.

Go glam

When you're wearing brightly colored denim, don't be afraid to go bold with your accessories, too! Go '60s or '70s glam by throwing in chunky bangle bracelets, giant sunglasses or a pair of thick wedge shoes.

Try color blocking

Since you're trying one big fashion hit of the season, why not go two for two? Use those gorgeous colored denim pants to try your hand at color blocking. There are a few different ways to go about color blocking, with the easiest being staying in the same color family. If your jeans are red, try a white shirt with a pink jacket or a yellow cami with an orange cardigan. Once you get comfortable with that, try adding a color that's not so close, like a pair of bright blue shoes or a blue handbag.

Keep in mind that when you're color blocking with your clothes, you need to keep your jewelry as neutral as possible. Silver or gold jewelry will complement these outfits perfectly.
