This summer has officially been my summer of the Boy Jean. I felt it appropriate to share what has been a go-to staple with you especially since this staple can transition perfectly in to cooler days.
Up North during the summer there is nothing more important than having great jeans. Everywhere I go even if I start out in a dress or shorts, I have a pair of jeans and sweatshirt with me. What I have loved this year about the boy jean is that whether I am heading to the beach for a bonfire or meeting a client for drinks, this jean will rock it out hard for me. Pair them with a favorite button down, a simple t-shirt, a crop top, or a drapey tank. Dress them up with a heel, ankle boot, or a simple sandal.
Not only are they versatile, but the relaxed style has been great on warm days. There is nothing I hate more than wearing something skin tight after a day of sweating. With working out so much this summer, I have been really into slipping these on after I clean up from a workout. They feel relaxed enough but are not my harem sweatpants I slip on when I wake up in the morning.
It sounds nuts but I have about 3 pairs now. Some are real boy jeans from Goodwill but this pair is from the new Madewell Denim line for fall, and I can’t get enough of them. I wore them all during Mille to give them a solid road test and sure enough they didn’t disappoint: Still fit like a glove and not to mention are comfier than the first time I slipped them on. They are the perfect pair for fall if you are looking for your next fave denim purchase.
