If you’re wondering if you can wear a pair of jeans in the summer, the answer is yes! There are a lot of factors that go into play simply because of the heat. My biggest recommendation is to stay away from skinny jeans! They will trap the heat and once you start to sweat in them, there’s no easy way to get out of them. White jeans are all the rage in the summer and I adore them! The shade goes with everything and they are a little different to the jeans we wear the rest of the year, so it’s a breath of fresh air at this time of year.
If you are looking for outfit ideas and new jeans, I am here to help you put together a great summer outfit idea with these top jeans. Here are 12 jeans to have as a summer staple in your summer wardrobe!
Shade
Firstly, the shade is everything. I think we need to have a variety of shades in our closets to have a well rounded wardrobe. Dark wash goes with certain tones better than light wash and vice versa. Although, when I think of summer, I don’t necessarily think of dark denim. I lean more towards pairs of jeans that are either white or a light wash. The bright colors and shades are better for casual wear, which is how summer is! It’s a relaxing season and there are less dressy parties to attend. If I can get a pink jean, you know I’ll go for that first! Light pink, magenta, hot pink- they all work well for the summer season!
Shape
Secondly, dressing for your body type is important. These jeans will be in your closet for hopefully a long time and having pairs that are flattering are essential. Moreover, the shape of the jean itself will help you keep cool in the warmer months. For instance, a wide leg, boyfriend jeans or an oversized fit will be breezier than skinny jeans or something close to the body like a straight leg.
Another type of jeans I love to sport in the summers are a raw hem or cropped leg. These not only show off your ankles and give you some air in the summer, but they are so on trend in a classic, vintage way. Something about a raw hem makes them feel like they were workshopped just for you.
Breezy
Finally, the ease of the breeze in these pants is something you will want to take into deep consideration! Like I just mentioned, the shape helps a lot with this factor. But another thing is the weight of the jean material. I don’t know about you, but a lot of my winter jeans are heavy. It may be hard to believe, but lightweight denim is very much a thing that exists and it’s something that is perfect for the summertime. Although size up, because you want to avoid any fabric tears or possible snags.
