Denim is a staple in everyone’s wardrobe, but how do you find that perfect pair of jeans and incorporate them into a summer wardrobe? We caught up with Diesel’s Erin Yefet to get the inside scoop of this season’s hottest denim trends and how to wear them.

Trend Watch: Boho, Cropped Pants and Jeggings

The boho look is one of the hottest trends of the season, with celebrities like Vanessa Hudgens and Nicole Richie adopting the style, which also showed up in the summer collections of Marc by Marc Jacobs, Missoni, Chloé, Roberto Cavalli, Anna Sui, Jimmy Choo and Bottega Veneta. Yefet says the retro trend is something every girl can rock this summer. “Flared jeans have come back for spring/summer. [Try] ripped detailing and a nice light wash paired with a great summer top.”

Another warm weather trend is the cropped pant. With so much versatility, this look is a great option for girls on the go. “You can wear them casual with running shoes and you can also dress them up with heels and a jacket to go out at night,” Yefet explains. “The great thing about them is that they’re versatile…you can wear them as a boyfriend fit or you can wear them fitted to your body.”

Also, the jeggings trend shows no signs of slowing down. “Diesel has made an amazing style of jegging called the Livier,” says Yefet. “They are super stretchy with no front pockets. These give you the perfect butt, which is what we’re all looking for. It has a nice lift, and the pockets are nicely placed on your butt.”

Take Denim from Day to Night

Love wearing jeans during the daytime? Don’t assume you have to put them away when you’re heading for a night out on the town. Yefet suggests dressing up jeans with some key accessories.

“You can actually accessorize with denim pieces,” says Yefet. “[Cropped pants] with a jean jacket would be great; adding a denim purse would be great, too. Don’t be afraid to wear denim with denim!”

Forget the “Canadian tuxedo”

Remember that golden rule about never pairing denim with denim? Throw it out. Yefet says layering denim on denim can look great – as long as you’re never mixing pieces in the same wash.

“You will want to wear [different washes] like a greyish denim jacket with a lighter denim on the bottom and then a dark denim blue bag, so it doesn’t really look like you’re overloaded in denim. It looks like you’ve contrasted everything properly and it all works together.”
