The Summer Denim Styling Guide
Ultra-utilitarian, billowy bohemian, or somewhere in between—whatever your vibe, chances are there’s a common denominator: jeans. They go with everything, can skew dressy or laid-back, and somehow manage to read cool without trying too hard. Ahead, some of our favorite season-appropriate denim looks to ride out the summer in.
NAVY KNIT + CLASSIC WHITE
Combine figure-hugging short shorts with a little volume up top (something along the lines of a quintessentially goop puff sleeve) for an easy polished look.

Wear It With
FRENCH-GIRL STRIPES + JEANS À LA SEBERG
Nothing captures summer quite like shorts and stripes. This pairing is nostalgic, effortless, and with the right touches (boatneck cut and woven basket in tow), très, très chic.
Wear It With
A-LINE SKIRT +
TUCKED-IN TOP
The denim skirt can—and should—go to the office; just add a detail-oriented meeting-friendly top. Best part? This versatile combination is just as hardworking off-hours.
Wear It With
BUTTON SHORTS + FEMININE TOP
Ramp up the romance on a pair of high-rise shorts with something blousy for breakfast dates, lunch dates…any dates, really.
Wear It With
CULOTTES + SIMPLE TANK
First: Contrast the wide-legs with something simple but sexy. Then drive the casual elegance home with a matching clutch.
