As last week’s absolutely gorgeous weather proved, summer is still alive. But here’s the tricky part: just as we were preparing for fall, we now want (and need) to wear summer clothes again. It seems like others in the industry are feeling the same way. Just this week, we’ve seen a lot of people wearing shorts again and searching for shorts on Google, especially white denim shorts.
A brighter option than blue denim shorts, the white denim shorts trend brings a fresher, more sophisticated energy to warm-weather outfits. Paired well with black accessories like sleek leather belts and shoulder bags, or bolder statement pieces, white denim shorts are like a blank canvas that you can style however you like.
White denim shorts have officially gone mainstream this summer, having appeared on the high street and in designer brands alike. Already a staple in many influencers’ wardrobes, scroll down to see how they’re being worn now and see our picks of the best styles.
How fashionistas are wearing white denim shorts
1. White denim shorts + white shirt
Style Notes: Nothing says summer quite like an all-white ensemble. A crisp white shirt paired with denim shorts is one of my favourite combos, and layering it with sleek accessories gives you a polished silhouette.

2. White denim shorts + logo tank top
Style Notes: The logo tank trend is popular this summer. A luxurious take on the classic summer tank, this new season trend pairs perfectly with white cut-off shorts. Layer it with a blazer for a sophisticated look and wear it with chic mesh flats to embrace another summer trend.
