2. Acne Studio "Gelder" Top ($192)
Does it pain you to put away your denim when Monday arrives? This midriff-baring top is another workplace-ready option. It's "all grown-up and poised to get serious mileage on the weekdays," says Kristin Andersen at Vogue. Buy it at Matches Fashion.
3. ASOS Denim Embroidered Shorts ($30)
The return of embroidery has to be "summer's prettiest denim trend," says Leanne Bayley at Glamour. These distressed cutoffs get a pop of color and a shot of romance from stitched flowers and pocket detailing. Buy it at ASOS.
4. Alice and Olivia Lucie Jumpsuit ($368)
The chic silhouette of this strapless, cropped-leg jumpsuit make it perfect for an outdoor cocktail party. Skip the jewelry and pair it instead with a bandanna tied round your neck or wrist. Buy it at Alice and Olivia.
5. Joshua Sanders Bow Sneaker ($146)
For a more modest foray into the elevated-denim trend, slip into this rubber-soled shoe. Its large, raw-edged denim bow can't be missed, but the sneaker is more accessory than statement. Buy it at Matches Fashion.
