Diamonds & Denim - IGB Weekly #12
Hello friends!
This week’s request is denim and diamonds and I am *here* for it. Instead of turning this into an entire wedding theme, I decided to pivot it into a bachelorette! I hope you like it as much as I do.

Denim and Diamonds: a 00s dream
A bachelorette theme true for all those who spent their teenage years in the 00s. Blue denim contrasted with the bright, sparkly white of diamonds. I love the idea of mixing a sparkly crop top with a denim mini! This theme is so fun and I’ve never seen it done before in a way that isn’t overly western. If you do this, tag me in pics so I can see!
The Looks (from left to right, top to bottom):
This denim David Koma bustier would pair nicely with a tennis necklace (but what wouldn’t?) ($780) and a low-rise sparkly skirt. Or save with this bralette from H&M!
These slouchy sequin pants would pair nicely with some denim and give some sparkle. ($65)
This rhinestone tank gives diamonds and I am *here* for it. ($88)
A denim and diamond theme would not be complete without the Mach & Mach denim and crystal bow shoes. ($1060) Or go with the crystal triple heart shoes for less than half the price.
