Liz Lisa coordinate inspiration with denim bottoms

This post is inspired by this ask I received on Tumblr a bit ago and just a few comments I've seen floating around!
My answer basically is ofc denim is okay! And there really are no "rules" to break. If you're trying to create a more obviously himekaji-type coordinate with denim, it helps if there is a cute aspect to your jeans like a print or lace, but if you're not motivated by that, then ofc anything is fine! (Denim) Rompers are also great in himekaji style coordinates as well.
It's okay to take it casual, even tone down an already casual fashion, and just take a day off with denim. You don't have to use Liz Lisa for all himekaji/gyaru all the time.

It's especially easy to wear Liz Lisa tops from (top + sukapan) set ups with jeans because of their length! The print or design is likely super cute and quintessential himekaji as most set ups are, but by substituting a more toned down bottom, you can create a really easy-to-wear simple outfit!

Here are some my own examples from 2013 -

I started this post months and months (maybe even a year?) ago, and since then Liz Lisa has released a bunch of denim bottoms, the most popular being the recent skinny pants! As a result, there's been a flood of shop staff photos wearing them, and I wasn't sure if I still wanted to go forward with this post, especially since I don't even own very many Liz Lisa denim bottoms myself. However, I took the time to gather up all the photos before the influx, and I wanted to just write something short to collect my thoughts here at this time, if only to just serve as some denim bottoms inspo.

Liz Lisa has plenty of examples of shop staff wearing denim bottoms! These aren't all jeans - some are denim shorts or overalls, etc, but I think it's just important to show that there's a lot of options out there.

As you can see, there is no shortage of denim bottom coordinates. And of course, the small sample I've shown here isn't even everything.

There were so many pictures featuring the denim skinny pants from Spring/Summer 2017 that I don't think I could properly include them all here, but I want to include a few here and then I'll list links to a bunch in what will be part 2 of this post!

After seeing all the shop staff photos, I couldn't resist getting a pair of these denim skinny pants myself. I purchased a pair back in May, but instead of posting coordinates with the rest of the items in the order, I wanted give them their own post which has been delayed time and time again. It's finally going to happen in the next blog post which will function as "part 2" in this short theme of Liz Lisa/girly coordinates with denim jeans where I make some of my own coordinates with it. It'll hopefully be published this weekend! Published now

I hope this post has cleared up the misconception that some seem to have about incorporating denim pants into Liz Lisa coordinates! We should always wear what we feel most comfortable in and if you're a denim pants kind of person, there isn't anything wrong with that. Keep doing you ♡
