To quote designer Ritu Kumar, “Denim has always been an everyday symbol for style”. And rightly so! You have your jeans, your skirts, your jackets, your shirts. Not just is denim universal, but all-season fashion that will never go out of style. Your fave Bollywood celebrities are proof. Here’s some denim inspiration you can steal from them for a fashion-forward lifestyle. They’re so easy you either have these in your closet already or you can DIY them at home.
1. The (Not So) Classic Denim Skirt
Shirt dresses can be a tad tricky to pull-off. Well, not anymore when you’ve denim to the rescue. Pair a denim skirt with your longline shirts just like Shraddha for an ultra-chic look. Cinch your waist with a belt and match your shoes for a high-street fashion look.

3. Stripped And Sexy
Denim shorts a day, keeps all the blues away (anyone here a fan of irony?) We love the tiny little side slits and the all-over vertical stripes. Pair it with a cami to the beach or with a boxy white tee and sneakers to college.
