Everywhere I Look, Fashion People Are Wearing These 7 Summer Trends With Jeans
Warm-weather outfits incoming.
When it comes to timeless wardrobe staples that are universally flattering, few pieces rival a good pair of jeans. Some people own more denim than they can count on two hands (guilty), while others rely on a select few tried-and-true silhouettes. Either way, it’s safe to say nearly everyone has at least one style hanging in their closet. And one of denim's biggest draws? It acts as the ultimate foundation for any outfit—or trend. With summer on the horizon, I’ve already been spotting fashion girls styling their jeans with a handful of emerging warm-weather looks.
Jeans are the perfect foil to statement-making tops and outerwear, and this season, expect to see the wardrobe staple paired with boho-chic blouses and sporty jackets alike. Denim also works with virtually every shoe silhouette imaginable. Take cues from the fashion set and style yours with early-aughts-inspired thong sandals or wedges.
And that’s just scratching the surface. Ahead, discover all the summer trends It girls are wearing with their jeans.
Wedges

Sporty Jackets
A jacket in the summer may sound a bit toasty. However, an AC-blasted room often warrants an extra layer. This season, expect the sporty jacket trend to remain firmly in rotation. For an unexpected outfit formula, pair the outerwear with straight-leg jeans and heels.

Slip Dresses
Though slip dresses are a wardrobe classic, experimental dressers are ushering a fresh way to wear the number: over jeans. A popular styling trick in the early 2000s, the combination is sure to make a bold statement.
