The power pair: A summer dress and jeans

Fashion
Rebecca Laurey and Leandra Medine

So you’ve bought an amazing summer dress that you just can’t wait to wear, but the weather isn’t playing ball. It’s not unusual, but it is surmountable. Take a leaf out of Leandra Medine and Rebecca Laurey’s books and solve your trans-seasonal styling issue with a pair of jeans. Not only does wearing a dress over denim let you get maximum wardrobe mileage from both pieces, it’s also this season’s must-try styling trick. The secret to nailing the look? Go for a dress that hits below the knee and ever-so-slightly cropped jeans that don’t add bulk around your middle for a flattering silhouette. It’s a match made in heaven.
