6 Cute Weekend Outfits for When Jeans Are Just Not Gonna Cut It
No pair of pants can even come close to the versatility of jeans. But once in a blue (indigo?) moon—usually after wearing the same pair of cropped flares 12 weekends in a row—we feel the urge to throw all of our denim out of sight. Plus, we find that when we switch things up, we always come back to our skinnies and our overalls with a newfound appreciation. (And what's better than falling in love with what's already in your closet?) With that in mind, we've rounded up a few of our favorite leading ladies in life and style, from Zoë Kravitz to Kendall Jenner, who have been pushing the nondenim boundaries of summer ’17 fashion. The outfits ahead will help you decide on what to wear on the weekends when jeans are just not what we're craving.
