While we're totally down for wearing white denim all year round, the trend (featuring cropped cuts) is particularly perfect for summer.

Consider upgrading your classic denim jacket in favor of a frayed style for a fresh silhouette. 

On the other hand, don't underestimate the power of a flawless pair of straight-leg black jeans to bring a downtown feel to your off-duty looks.

Bring a touch of playful sophistication to your summer outfits with a ruffled denim skirt. It's an easy way to make a statement.

You'd be hard-pressed to find a fashion person who doesn't have light-wash jeans in their arsenal. That ideal pair will make any ensemble seem laid-back and of-the-moment.

Not feeling the Bermudas trend? Go for the hiked-up look with short denim shorts to kick it on the weekends this season.

Don't be afraid to venture out of your comfort zone by testing out offbeat denim silhouettes like an eye-catching asymmetrical pick.
