Three easy ways to wear denim dresses. Photos: Marc Piasecki/WireImage and Imaxtree
As temperatures rise, we're looking at new ways to wear denim. Last week we made the case for denim skirts as an alternative to jeans, and now we're spotlighting another versatile favorite — the denim dress.
The easiest way to wear it is as a longer version of the denim shirt. There are tons of styling options: roll up the sleeves, belt it, layer it over another dress or simply wear it loose around the body. A shift denim dress is the more sophisticated option, taking advantage of the fabric's natural stiffness for a sleek look. For a playful take on the style, try a pinafore or overall dress. Layer it over a thin shirt (or nothing, if the cut allows) on really hot days when you want something breathable but more ladylike than overall shorts.
