Spring/Summer 2016 Trend Report: Embellished Denim

Hello! This spring/summer 2016 season is just full of trends that I can't get enough of! This season, embellished denim established itself as a major trend. Designer brands such as alice + olivia, Valentino, Marc Jacobs and Dolce & Gabbana have all defined embellished denim as a trend to keep your eye on. This trend isn't just for jeans though; this trend encompasses all items of clothing and accessories. Yes, even denim shoes! I can't get enough of the Marc Jacobs denim platform heels featured above.

You can shop this trend at fashion-forward retailers like Nasty Gal. However, you could easily DIY this trend. Just take a pair of your denim jeans that you're no longer feeling (or scoop up a pair at a thrift shop for cheap) and embellish away! From beading to patches to pearls, all sort of embellishing is encouraged with this trend. By DIYing this trend, you can choose exactly what sort of embellishment your denim will utilize.

I created these sets through Polyvore [links to these sets and the items included: #1, #2].
