Flexibility is an important factor when you think of denim jean shorts. While the fabric is less sturdy than that of a standard pair of jeans, it still offers the wearer plenty of opportunities for flexibility. The following are the best denim jean shorts for your summer trip.

Blue StripeEmail An email for this. Light blue gives the wearer a subdued dressy look that is perfect for a flight or a cruise. If your destination is not too cold, this color is a good choice for a weekend jaunt. It has a soothing effect and is capable of refreshing both the body and the mind. For those women f frustrate with the hip and waist belt designs, a hip belt is a good solution. Pair up your denim jean shorts with a fitted blazer and a simple clutch. Don’t forget your tote bag and shoes.

Light grayIf you crave a darker shade that will give you the ability to step out in style, this is the ideal color for you. A gray is a neutral color that can be worn with many other hues. This is the ideal shade for those that are professional and do not have a preference for one over the other. A gray pair is equally at home on a day out at the races or at the office. This goes well with tops, t-shirts, shirts, accessories… anything really. The secret to a great look is not in the fabric, but in the right way to wear it.

BlackThis is another classic color. Whether or not it is raw black, brick red or midnight black, you don’t have to be a fan of black to look great in it. A black on black look is great for adding pizazz to your outfit or for keeping the darker colors away from your face. Add a little color to your get up with a bright or dark shade watch.

Sand yellows, reds, and bluesFashion Tips: Let freedom ring! Unless you are drastically contrasting the colors of your denim, you should be fine. Great reds and blues can add a great deal of drama to denim. This works especially well for those women fortunate enough to be able to wear all colors.

Denim always comes in different shapes and washes. When shopping for a dark denim, it is recommended that you try different sizes and washes until you find the one that works best for you. Brighter washes tend to fade faster while darker washes hold their color much longer.

As for the fit… There are so many different styles attached to jeans these days. The usual has always been to pair them with a slim fitting top or a heels and a anything black peep dress. With the summer months, a bit more of variety presents itself. While toned down denim still has a place in professional, relaxed, and casual settings, the far more popular relaxed fit is becoming a big hit in professional circles. With rolling Jackson’s as a guide, the most popular relaxed fit is the so-called slim fit. A slimmer, more contoured fit that is tighter but not skin tight is the way to go.

Long and short denim wear is a trend that has been well received this summer. Wearing them the right way is of course a delicate matter since there are different styles and looks for all to wear. As is the case with fashion, the general rule is that more is not necessarily better. A pair of kitten heels with a maxi dress may look good but too much of a statement will make you look like… well… a kitty cat! This is especially true if the longer denim dress is super short. Keep your look fresh and fierce but not to the extreme. A fair warning with the length though is that the longer the denim is on the legs, the trendier they will look.

Jeans are the most durable way to go. They are perfect no matter what the event. Worn with a top or in combination with a calf length leather jacket, they are always ready for the heat wave of summer.
