3 Ways to Style a Denim Overall Dress (Without Looking Childish!) How To Style a Denim Overall Dress

Who doesn’t love a denim overall dress?!

A denim jumper is both timeless, easy to wear, but also harkens back to a simpler time in our lives; thus making us feel very child-ish when we wear them.

It’s definitely tricky finding a balance of styling clothes usually associated with children while making them feel grown-up for you now and also representing your personal style.

Today I’m tackling the problem with denim overall dresses and hopefully sparking some new outfit ideas for you!

Outfit Idea: A Denim Dress with Color

My personal style is very colorful so naturally I want to style a staple like a denim dress with color!

The blue denim can really be an anchor for any color palette you choose. I went with reds and orange since my mind is in Fall mode!

I think the red is also a more mature version of pink that we might see and associate with a little girls outfit. Red is a bold choice, marking how far you’ve come since you were younger!

Outfit Idea: A Denim Dress and Embracing Youthful Elements

If you’re already going to feel like a child in a denim dress, why not embrace it?

I went with another colorful palette but the pieces themselves have grown-up silhouettes. Like a pea coat, beret, and boat neck top.

Outfit Idea: A Denim Dress and Moto Jacket

Lastly, get as far as you can from a goody-two-shoes image by decking yourself out in dark colors and an edgy moto jacket!

I added a fun patterned scarf for some flair, but a structured hat or statement accessories would also be a good addition to this look!

Jean (Dress) Queen

A denim dress can be so much fun to style and wear. If you’re still feeling self-conscious, try to think about where those thoughts are coming from and why they bother you so much. There’s nothing wrong with wearing what you like and expressing yourself!

At the end of the day, there’s no harm in wearing something youthful or wearing your hair in pigtails. The world will keep spinning and you will have rocked a look that was true to yourself!
