denim shorts are a staple in any spring/summer wardrobe, but white denim shorts are perhaps another story. i, myself was skeptical that my closet needed a second pair of denim cut-offs, that is until i saw how cute they were on one of my girlfriends who had paired them with a simple grey tee. there’s something just so fresh about white denim. similar to its blue cousin, it plays nicely with just about every color. but as you’re already well aware, right now i’m all about neutrals. in fact, they were all i packed on our trip to the desert mostly for the fact that they make creating outfits an absolute breeze. to show off their versatility, i styled these shorts two ways over the course of our time in la quinta -once for a low-key date night look and once for an an effortless look on our trek back home.
