Summer may be in full swing, but with the weather being as unpredictable as ever, we're all about wearing versatile pieces that will keep us cool during the sunny spells and protect us from the cold when the temperatures drop. And if there's one thing that does that better than anything, it's denim. This summer, though, we're ditching our go-to jeans and denim shorts in favour of an altogether different way to wear denim, with celebrities like Blake Lively and Kylie Jenner leading the way with their denim dress trend.
From minis to midi lengths and every style imaginable including halternecks and shirt dress, this truly is a trend for everyone.

The former Gossip Girl actress wore a £300 rhinestone-covered mini dress from Self Portrait for the occasion, which she paired with a floor length denim duster coat in a contrasting shade of blue and a pair of strappy stilettos.
If you want to copy Blake's look for your next evening out, we've found some gorgeous (and more budget-friendly) alternatives to her party dress, including this Ruchi Embellished Square Neck Mini Dress in Blue from Oh Polly for £96 (was £120). It has a similar square strappy neckline and a shorter hemline, although it's slightly more figure-hugging than Blake's.
