A classic oversized white shirt is the ultimate fail-safe option – make it even classier with a pair of pumps.

#7: Add Some Sequins

Elevate a simple pair of denim shorts by throwing sequins into the mix – a pair of bright strappy pumps won’t hurt either.

#8: Light Trench

If you’re conscious about showing too much leg, this is the perfect partner for your blues. Play with length by wearing your denim shorts with a long, breezy trench coat… leopard-print boots optional.

#9: Bomber Jacket

Match two classic pieces together by wearing your denim shorts with a bomber jacket – patent leather boots complete the biker chic look.

#10: Bermuda Shorts

If the short length of most denim shorts doesn’t cut it for you, a pair of denim bermudas works just as well
