5 Ways I'm Wearing Jeans This Summer

To be completely honest, I really don't like shorts. I don't exactly know why this is because they used to be my favorite thing. But sometime over the last 1.5 years I began to really dislike them. I really don't find them that comfortable (maybe that's just me) especially when brands usually make them way too short so I'm constantly having to pull them down. And I just love jeans. So if you're anything like me, you're not quite ready to say goodbye to jeans over the next few months. Here are 5 ways I plan on continuing to wear jeans this summer:

1. The Culottes

Probably the closest I'd like to come to shorts. I'm looking to pair them with a strapless top, basically a skirt top, for the perfect breezy summer look.

2. The Cropped Skinny

I absolutely love the ankle-bearing skinny (scandalous!). And here is the genius part of this- no longer will your ankles be cold when you wear them! I'm looking to tuck in a bright top and wear lace up gladiator sandals with them, as well as a matching brown belt.

3. The Bellbottoms

I have yet to find the perfect high waisted flared jeans that aren't $200. But when I do, I'll be a changes woman. This style is obviously trendy right now, and I plan on channeling Jane Birkin with a good fitted t-shirt.

4. White Denim

My obsession with black as completely changed into that of white, which makes this white denim trend perfect. Of course I'm going to use them to go for a Parisian look (my favorite style), and throw a bandana in there. Bonus Points: find a pair of white mom jeans.

5. The Overalls 

Did overalls really ever go out? I don't know but I've definitely switched from being tired of seeing them to loving them again. However I will not settle with short overalls, they have to be long. I plan on embracing a tom boy style with them, but throwing in a fun feminine piece like this bag to kind of switch things up.

What do you guys think? How are you planning to wear jeans this summer?

Two Things:

1. How amazing is this dress?!? It's denim. It's midi. It's collared. Maybe its just me, but I think I found my dream dress. And the perfect excuse to incorporate denim into more of my outfits. Thank you, Oh My Love, for making all my denim dreams come true.

2. Meet my new leather jacket. I never knew I wanted a white leather jacket until I encountered this Schott Perfecto. Wow guys its so great to be in love. And yes, I did already have a leather jacket. But it never fit me right and well, I've come out of the dark side. So I probably will be selling that one soon, so if you're looking for a standard (real) leather biker jacket for remotely cheat hit me up. In the meantime, you'll be seeing this bad boy in many posts to come, regardless of the weather.

Pinafore Dress- Asos, Striped Shirt- Zara, Creepers- T.U.K., Sunglasses- Flashbacks

     A few weeks ago the clothing brand Asos contacted me about this back to school feature they were doing. They chose a few bloggers to style what they thought were essential fall wardrobe pieces. The fact that they wanted to include me was not only exciting (I mean hey I'm getting free clothes), but also extremely flattering considering my blog doesn't have the largest following. So without thinking twice I took advantage of this opportunity. I've never ordered anything from Asos before so I wasn't really sure what to expect quality wise, but I absolutely love everything they sent me, this denim pinafore dress being one of them. It's such an easy piece to wear, so I know it definitely will be making the cut for my Italy packing list. Speaking of which, I leave the country in almost 3 weeks. Ahh!
