Weekend style: Dressed-down denim with a dressed-up top

Forgive me, but I’m just not through with distressed denim yet. My fave way to wear it is to juxtapose a ripped-to-shreds pair of denim bottoms with a dressy blouse or jacket on top. Take advantage of the warm weather and match your denim shorts with a slouchy topper and a pair of nude, strappy sandals that elongate the leg.

I think summer hair should involve little to no work, so throw it up in a low, loose bun. Or if you have a natural wave like me, don’t fight it. Instead, spritz on some beach spray, scrunch it and go.
