1. Keep Them Flat
Ladies, when you’re searching for the perfect pair of shoes to go with your stylish denim cutoffs, flat sandals will do the trick. A shorts and pumps combo is overkill –you want to look hot, but don’t burn them with your heat! I love to pair my cutoffs with colorful gladiators or flip flops for the boardwalk. It keeps the look summery sweet.
2. A Good Fit is Key
One important thing to remember when figuring out how to wear denim cutoffs is that a good fit can make or break your entire ensemble. So, make sure you have enough breathing room (remember: keep your derrière to yourself!). Conversely, you shouldn’t be swimming in your shorts, so try them before you buy them.

3. Take ‘Em to the Beach
One super cute way to wear denim cutoffs is on your next beach trip. Slip them on before hitting the boardwalk or use them as a beach cover up. You can take your one piece on a casual lunch date with the bestie simply by throwing on your cutoffs. Easy, breezy, and oh-so-summery!
4. Dress Them up
If you’re wondering how to wear denim cutoffs to a bar or backyard party, a light and flowy top will take your look up a notch. I always keep a silky white blouse in my closet for these occasions. With an arm party on your wrists, gold gladiators, and a classic clutch, you’ll be totally put together.
5. Dress Them down
If neither a beach date nor a trip to the bar is in order, you can still wear your denim cutoffs without appearing sloppy. My go-to way to pull this off is by wearing my denim with a striped button down. How could you go wrong with nautical?

6. Be Fearless
If you’re plus-sized, don’t let images of emaciated models bring you down! When scouring the racks for a hot pair of denim cutoffs, go for a flattering dark wash and avoid tiny back pockets (they can give the illusion of a larger backside). Shorts can work for a variety of body shapes and sizes if you have the confidence to wear them. And we Stalkers have guts!
7. Don’t Skimp on Sunscreen
Since you’ll be exposing your gorgeous legs, you’ll need to protect them. SPF is a must, so keep the sun’s harmful rays at bay by slathering it on every few hours.
