Outfit Ideas; Denim Shorts
Denim shorts are a summer staple that make putting together cute, casual outfits a breeze. Pair them with a breezy tank top or a simple graphic tee for an easygoing daytime look, and throw on your favorite sneakers or sandals to keep things comfy. Add a pair of sunglasses and a tote bag, and you’re good to go for anything from a beach trip to a coffee run.
Want to switch it up a bit? Try styling your denim shorts with a lightweight button-down shirt, either tucked in or worn open over a crop top for that effortless vibe. You can also dress them up slightly with a cute blouse and some platform sandals for a laid-back evening out. However you wear them, denim shorts are basically the summer version of a blank canvas—simple, easy, and always in style.
Here are some ideas we had for wearing denim shorts this summer!
