Fan Favorite Denim
Seasons come and go, as do trends such as bucket hats, platform boots or square toe heels. Despite these cyclical trends there seems to always be one item in particular that stands the test of time and that ladies and gents is denim. Summer or winter, hot or cold, the ol’ reliable denim is always here to stay and carry us through whatever crazy fads the fashion industry throws at us and this season isn’t any different. The beauty of denim is that there are endless possibilities and a plethora of options for any outfit and any day rain or shine. Here’s our three style picks for the must have denim you need in your closet this summer.
Dark Wash
Something about a darker denim just seems a bit more formal and refined. A pair of dark wash jeans and a crisp white tee is a classic pairing of two essentials that just seems fresh and meant for each other. This Kimmie Crop Jean from 7 For All Mankind is exactly what we’re talking about. This mid-rise cropped jean features faded knee detailing and skinny leg silhouette. Another dark wash favorite is this Straight Leg Jeans in 15 Years Shoreline from AG. The classic straight leg silhouette with faded detailing uses sustainable fibers to create this casual and snug fitting denim option.
Boyfriend Jeans
We can’t deny it - we love our boyfriend jeans. The relaxed fit makes for the most comfortable pair of denim you’ll find on this list and here’s a few of our favorites. The Dre Slim Fit Boyfriend Jeans from Rag & Bone take priority on this list. We love the light wash and that these jeans hover right over our ankles making them the ideal jeans to wear with our Rag & Bone boots. Finally, we can’t forget this pair from denim god Frame. The Le Beau Ripped Boyfriend Jeans has rips and distressed detailing on the legs and a straight leg silhouette that even your actual boyfriend will be envious of.
Wide Leg and Flare
The wide leg and flared leg silhouettes seem to be making a comeback this season and we were reluctant at first but after seeing these options we are now converts. This pair from Frame had us sold. The Le High Flare Jeans in the shade Sutherland hug your curves in all the right ways and this dark denim color is chic but also slimming and the high waist doesn’t hurt either. We originally thought that flare jeans only looked good on extremely tall and svelte women but this pair, thankfully proves us wrong on that front. We have yet to list a pair of white denim but we were saving this pair because it just might be our favorite no matter how risky it is to wear white pants. To that we say oh what the hell! This Hepburn High Rise Wide Leg Jeans in the color ‘eggshell’ from DL1961 is the ideal wide leg jean. This pair combines the quintessential wide leg silhouette with the crisp white dye to make the best jeans for this summer.
So which style are you? Are you playing it safe with a dark wash or are you going all out with a dramatic flare? Perhaps you’re taking matters into your own hands and giving your boyfriend back his denim and purchasing your own ‘boy”.
