I keep trying to drop the denim-on-denim like a bad habit, but as it goes with any bad habit, I just can't seem to stop. Don't get me wrong. I'm the biggest fan of denim-on-denim (dare I even say a bigger fan than I am of my beloved Chanel?!). But it's become my go-to, wear-it-every-single-day, why-do-I-even-bother-with-other-pieces outfit. Who would have guess that at one point in time I didn't even like the whole double denim thing. Kind of hilarious, no? I mean, I've only worn a million renditions of it (like this, this, this and this).When I bought this dress the other day, I knew I wouldn't be able to resist making it a million and one. Can you blame me? #denimondenimforlyfe

P.S. I'm partnering up with my friend Michelle of Coffee & Champagne this week for a fun NYC week full of summer activities. Make sure you're following on Snapchat (username: runwaychef) and our Instagrams (mine, Michelle's) for all the behind-the-scenes (and for some fun summer things to do in the city)!
