Love denim, but wondering how to wear it during the summer?
Chambray is the perfect warm weather alternative to heavy denim, combining the classic, easy-to-wear styling of denim without the bulk (and heat) of traditional denim. This versatile fabric, which can be worn with pretty much any color, looks great with a pair of
gladiator heels and/or with a
woven brown belt, like this one from Target
