While many of us get daunted by the 'double denim look', it is a simple concept that when nailed looks effortlessly cool. To give us the ultimate lesson in 'double denim', Cate Blanchett was captured in New York wearing the fashion combination on Monday (5 August).

Known for her chic red carpet outfits, the Oscar-winning actress Cate can really do it all when it comes to fashion, including wearable, off-duty looks.

Exuding 70s style, Cate's beautiful co-ord was in fact actually made from velvet, but designed to imitate the appearance of a classic blue double denim look.

Wearing a dusty blue 'denim' jacket teamed with her matching pair of flared jeans, the star finished off her look with a Brandon Maxwell heart-shaped oversized belt and burgundy faux crocodile print stilettos.

For some of us oversized belts instantly reminds us of the early 2000s, especially when paired with our favourite low-rise jeans.

Championing the oversized belt trend in full force, Cate shows us how a statement belt is a great way to punctuate an everyday outfit.

If you're wondering how to style your favourite denim pieces together or looking to buy a double denim outfit like Cate's or Pamela Anderson's, try pairing two denim pieces that are closest in colour together or if you're not going for a matching look, you're better to completely mismatch your denim pieces.

We suggest playing around with contrasting tones, as this will immediately make the trend more wearable and add a touch of fun to your weekly wardrobe.

However, if you love the matching uniform aesthetic, then we love this affordable yet stylish option from the high street retailer New Look paired with this gorgeous belt from Mango.

We can't get enough of the double denim looks this season!
