Let’s be bold and blunt: Denim never goes out of style. The material is too classic, giving “must-have” vibes every season. The only changes we face are what denim trends are currently in – and that’s exactly what we’re here to discuss. Keep reading for some awesome inspirational denim photos and picks for your summer wardrobe.
Pleated Trousers
Pleated trousers with fitted waistbands are everywhere these days! These high-rise fashion statements can be worn with a bodysuit or bralette for a sexy, laid-back look – or with a baggy top for a more comfortable vibe. You can even take an alternative route and get dressy with a matching crop-top blouse.

Denim Overshirts
The best layering piece you’ll ever invest in is a denim overshirt. This closet staple will stand the test of time, giving you a good bang for your buck. Wear it with jeans for a complete denim outfit, or choose this as your stand-alone piece for the day. If the weather gets too hot, roll up the sleeves, or carry it as a jacket for when the sun goes down.

Flares
Flared jeans are standing tall in popularity. The best part about them is that they easily range from sophisticated to laid-back. Pair the classic, subtle look with a pretty blouse for work, or grab a tank top and sneakers for a more casual outing.

Pocket Cargo Jeans
These pocket cargos are one-of-a-kind, and we’re obsessed with them. They’re well-rounded on top to fit the waist, butt, and thighs properly but loose on the bottom to provide ample comfort. You can pair them with a cute button-up vest and heels for juxtaposition.

Blushing Jeans
Do you feel pretty in pink? Blush-colored jeans will definitely be your thing this summer. Show off that romantic vibe with a blush denim jacket, or grab a pair of blush shorts that show off a casual and sporty vibe. Blushing hues range from peach and rosy to neutral and everything in between.
