One of the trends I can’t get enough of at the moment is the cropped denim jacket + matching skirt trend. You know that Im such a sucker for denim on denim of any kind. I mean.. as long as it doesn’t look like I belong on a ranch. I am positive we will be seeing this look trickling into summer and getting bigger throughout fall. There are already some amazing sets out there that I have my eye on in so many different colors and fun patterns too. Tophop (for example) is killing it with their sets!

The jacket I am wearing above is a DIY I chopped and cropped myself from an old oversized forever 21 jacket. Super easy and affordable way to update an old denim jacket. Cheap forever 21 or thrifted finds are perfect.  The thing I love about denim is you almost never have to sew anything back when you cut it up. I decided to turn this into the cropped look and paired it with an old denim skirt. I’ve been wearing it so much this summer! If you aren’t the ‘DIY’ type, there are plenty of sets for sale at affordable prices too!

I love how fashion forward this trend is.  What you think of this whole look? Yay or nay?

Here are my top denim set picks :
