NYC DJ and certified badass party animal Haruka Salt opened up the doors to her closet recently so Denim Therapy could get a closer look at her style. Her selections included black and white lightening bolt printed jeans, acid wash high-waisted skinnies, and a lot of high-contrast pop accents. She confided in us that she loves mixing up vintage clothing with new, coming up with just as much variation as you’ll find in one of her DJ sets. We hit the street with Haruka in her favorite outfits and took these shots—get inspired below, and listen to one of her mixtapes while you scroll!
Look 1. Acid wash mid-rise skinny jeans with neon yellow tank top & chain-embellished shoes.
Look 2. Tie-dye skinny jeans with black tank and bright yellow heels.
Look 3. Printed light-wash jeans with screen printed t-shirt & oversized earrings.
Look 4. Lightning bolt printed skinny jeans with pastel purple top and vintage lemon earrings.

With one foot into summer, we’re ready to pull out our swinging chiffon skirts and twirl like mad. Take a cue from Ashley Madekwe and add a denim shirt and nude platform heels for a slightly girly vibe, toughened up (just a tad) with a grommet belt, men’s style watch, and hard metal accessories.
Get the look below!

The only thing more exciting than going to a huge music festival? Browsing hundreds of festival style pics after the show wraps up! Okay, we digress. There’s something about the open air, pool parties, live music, and a bunch of friends dressed up in festival fan fare that you just can’t beat. But if you didn’t go to Coachella 2012, this is the next best thing. Check out some of the denim street style we loved from around the web.

Wait one moment. Is that–is that sun we feel? Maybe it’s just wishful thinking, but we’re already looking towards summer and maybe hallucinating that it’s warmer than it actually is. Here is a look that is perfectly beachy, but will suit you for springtime. Style blogger Jennifer paired her peachy jeans with a pastel-adorned white crop top, bangles, cat-eye sunglasses, and neutral heels. Airy, light, and chill as can be. We approve.

Colored denim may be a new staple exploding over the denim scene, but one timeless piece we can’t argue with is a classic chambray. Street styler Sirma chose to accessorize her mint hint of color Pull&Bear jeans with a and basic denim workshirt detailed with a trace of lace.
Dying over this pop of pastel? Get the look below!

What are a girl’s two favorite things? Flowers and fashion. We’ve rounded up some trendy street stylers who are taking floral denim to a new level. With five extremely different ways to dress up or dress down -here are some of our favorite floral ensembles we are eating up.
Silvia chooses an elegant floral print from Zara to liven up her muted color story.
Fashion blogger Shea reps some bright and bold hues on the beach in Zara floral skinnies for the ultimate spring look.
Chelsea tries a more casual approach with a pair of Insight’s floral denim. Cocorosa found her flirty florals at Topshop.
Kat’s unique take on the floral trend is with a pair of vintage floral patchwork jeans.

The weather is finally warming up (fingers crossed!) and we’re looking to grab inspiration from the coolest girls on the street. We’ve rounded up some pics of rad ladies styling jean cut-off shorts, which you can check out below. And FYI, if you have a fave pair of jeans you’re looking to make into shorts, try out Denim Therapy’s cut-off shorts service to get the perfect length!
Sadly, we can’t get our hands on these Levi’s shorts (they were thrifted!), but you can substitute Forever 21′s high rise destroyed shorts. In this transitional weather, it won’t be weird if you pair a cropped sweater with short shorts. Seasonal confusion? Nah!
Take a cue from Connie, the blogger behind K is for Kani, and grab an electric blue pair of cutoffs, like these J Brand Cutoff Shorts in Blue Bonnet. Roll ‘em up for a more polished edge.
This girl does denim on denim while wearing her fave pair of shorts, and we’ll gladly follow suit with our light summer tees, high-tops, and faded cutoffs (check out these Siwy Camilla shorts).
Style blogger Anouska Proetta Brandon got these true-blue jean cutoffs from Camden Market, but here’s a great pair of vintage cut off shorts from 7 For All Mankind that you an snag sans heavy searching. Top knot optional.
The plain white tee and jean shorts combination is a classic, but this look gets edgy with ragged tights and tons of statement bangles. Australian blogger Morgan got her pair from One Teaspoon, but we’re also loving a similar short from the brand, One Teaspoon’s Original Bandits style.

With mint green jeans getting all the hype lately,we can’t forget about its close relative, the lime green jean. Style blogger Shea of Cheyenne Meets Chanel found the ideal pair to pull of her flawless evening-at-the-beach ensemble: Current/Elliott’s The Stiletto in Lime Green. A strong statement on their own, they need only be paired with a knit top and some cute shoes to feel complete.
