MICHAEL STARS BLACK TANK:

This stunning cutout top from Michael Stars is a fabulous option for a date night, especially paired with my favorite silhouette of denim for summertime. I love how it looks like a basic tank from the front and then you get a subtly sexy surprise at the back, and the under $100 price tag doesn’t hurt either! I wear an XS and find it fits true to size.

MOTHER TOMCAT JEANS:

As I mentioned above, this is my favorite silhouette of denim for summertime all because of the ankle length! They give major summer vibes and perfectly showcase a stunning pair of heels. The fit is impeccable and the mid-rise is perfect for those who don’t love a full high-rise jean. I wear a size 24 in this classic way to wear denim in the summertime.

OFF THE SHOULDER IVORY TOP:

This cowl neck top is another great date night option from Reformation. The knit material is cool, sleek and has just enough stretch to be incredibly comfortable. It has an under $100 price tag and fits true to size; I’m wearing an XS.

DENIM MINI SKIRT:

The denim mini skirt is the last of 5 versatile ways to wear denim in the summertime! I love a good classic denim skirt because my legs are one of my favorite aspects of my body and as they say, If you’ve got it, flaunt it! The exact denim skirt I’m wearing is sold out, so I’m linking a very similar option that’s on sale for under $75; I would wear an XS in this flattering denim silhouette.

SAM EDELMAN SLIDES:

These amazing slides by Sam Edelman have been the top sellers for the last 2 months on my blog, that’s how good they are! The neutral shade goes with everything but they come in tons of other colors as well. They’re super comfy because of the padded footbed and they have a great price point! I find they run slightly big so size down 1/2 a size – I’m wearing a size 7.
