Spring & Summer Denim


If you’ve read some of my previous post, you probably already know about my not-so-secret denim addiction. I l o v e the fabric, and always wear it year-round!

course, come spring and summer, I tend to ditch my skinny jeans in favor of cooler, girlier styles like the ones featured below. The following four pieces are my spring and summer denim staples.



1.Boyfriend Jeans

Boyfriend jeans can be hard to pull off, as they can sometimes make you look sloppy or larger on the bottom, but if you pick the right pair they’ll hang off your hips in that effortless California-chic way. As always, it’s important watch your proportions when creating an outfit around a pair of these jeans: pair baggy bottoms with a more fitted top for the most flattering look. Want a more easy-going vibe? Try the jeans with an oversized v-neck.


2. Cuffed Shorts

As far as I’m concerned, cuffed shorts are a MUST for summer. They’re figure-flattering, and a bit more dressy than regular, or un-hemmed varieties. Cuffed shorts also tend to give a bit of extra room in the thighs, which is especially helpful if you have an athletic or fuller figure.



3. Denim Jacket

A good denim jacket is a girl’s best friend. It’s a stylish way to top off a spring or summer outfit for added warmth and fashion points. I love the look of a light-wash jean jacket over a printed maxi dress at night for summer concerts!
