10 Ways To Wear Your Denim This Summer

As an avid lover of denim, I'm a firm believer that you can go every day of your life with one piece of denim in your outfit and not get bored. Call me Canadian, but I'm a huge fan of the large amount of variations on this multi-seasonal look that never goes out of style. Denim has been a closet staple since the 1980s with icons like Jane Birkin and Kate Moss owning this look time and time again. You can dress it up and dress it down. You can wrap it around your waist or even on your head. Denim is the most versatile fabric on the market and I'm eager to try every version of it that I can. Here are ten ways you can wear it this summer.

NUMBER 10

As A Skirt

At Chloe, the button-front jean skirt made a star appearance and I have been in love ever since. With Normcore being the norm this year, jean skirts are back from the grave and a fashion staple no less.

NUMBER 9

With More Denim

Take it from Olivia Palermo, the Canadian tuxedo is one to try this summer. Whoever thought you could wear too much denim never wore it like a fashion girl.

NUMBER 8

As Cutoffs

With festival season in our midst, denim cutoffs are a closet must. Warm weather demands that they be worn so wear them like you're 16 again.

NUMBER 7

As Boyfriend Jeans

Skinny jean who? With skinny jeans slowly easing out of the picture, baggy ripped boyfriend jeans are the new trend of the moment that's capturing everyone's attention. Are you ready to give it a shot?

NUMBER 6

As Overalls

Summer is the perfect time to release your inner child and with the latest news that Full House is returning as "Fuller House" on Netflix, overalls couldn't be more relevant.

NUMBER 5

With 70s Flair

Since the boho look has resurfaced, so has the wide leg. Best worn with a sky high wedge, are you gutsy enough to try this look?

NUMBER 4

As A Dress

A jean dress is the perfect summer look because all you have to do is slip it on and you're ready to go. Whether you choose to wear it with your crisp new sneakers or a pair of wedges, that's your choice. Either way, when it comes to denim, anything goes.

NUMBER 3

As A Jacket

A jean jacket is the ideal closet staple for those breezy summer nights. It's casual and put together without taking away from your outfit.

NUMBER 2

With Embellishment

Are you bold enough to wear embellished jeans? Seen at Dolce & Gabbana and Ashish, this look was a major crowd pleaser on the Spring 2015 runways.

2015 Predictions: Because I'm An Oracle

There's nothing we all love more than predicting the future. We try to plan our next vacations, our next spa trip, our next mani-pedi. We predict our impending disappointment a couple of months prior to our birthdays and anticipate our next accomplishment. As someone who enjoys planning ahead, these predictions are the heart and soul of my existence. Who would I be if I didn't attempt to predict the future? Mixed with a desire to say "I told you so" come 2016 and a need to know what happens next, I've constructed an educated guess of the fashion stories that will define 2015.

Here is goes.

2015 Will Be The Year That...

PLATFORMS REIGN SUPREME

After spotting the platform at Tom Ford, I just knew this one was here to stay. In 2014, there may have been high wedges and flatforms on the streets of Paris, New York, London, and Milan, but the heels are about to get higher. To some, it was the year of the sneaker, but in fact, it was the year we tried to mix comfort with style. In 2015, comfort will take on a new definitions as the platforms get higher and we'll get to relive our deepest Spice Girls fantasy.

LOOSER PANTS KILL THE SKINNY

Say goodbye to tight pants and hello to loose flowy beach babe skirt pants. Is it a skirt? Is it pants? Nobody knows because they're just so darn flowy. With the 70's revival, flared legs will become the new sexy look du jour, so get ready for supreme comfort and vacation style 24/7.

APPLE WATCHES BECOME THE NEW MICHAEL KORS

Once upon a time, everyone wanted a chic Michael Kors watch or a classy Marc Jacobs. This year, those who belong to the inner fashion circle will opt for something a little more high tech. The apple watch will emerge as the new arm candy statement maker. If you thought tech fashion was big last year, in 2015, it will explode.

SLITS REPLACE MINI SKIRTS

While 2014 was the year that the mod trend invaded the fashion sphere, longer skirts will return in 2015 to replace the Twiggy mini, but with a catch. While a maxi or a midi may seem more conservative, these ones will have more slits than ever. Slits may have been popular in 2014, but they're about to get bigger.

GIGI HADID REPLACES KENDAL JENNER

Though I admit that I've become attached to Kendall (she is my favourite Kardashian), another young model is emerging with a promising career ahead of her. With a campaign for Tom Ford and some runway appearances at the hottest shows, this young model has evolved from her Guess days into a full-blown high fashion model. Are you ready for Gigi?

METALLIC NAILS REPLACE NAIL ART

Remember when nail art was a thing? Thankfully, we've gotten over that fad. This year, I'm hoping for metallic nails. While I love a sheer pastel, metallic fits with the current 70s wave. I'm ready for something bolder this year, are you?

CURLS RETURN
While this has no been confirmed by designers, the emerging 70's trend predicts some bouncier curls this year. Will hair officially get bigger? I can't wait to find out.

IT'S ALL ABOUT THAT TREBLE

While 2014 was all about that Bass (as proven by Nicki Minaj, Kim Kardashian, and Meghan Trainor) 2015 will be all about the treble. We've obsessed over our rears long enough and it's time for our VS bras to shine.
