Prepare to brave transitional weather by repurposing your denim shirts as denim jackets. For a longer, tunic-length denim shirt, just wear it like you would a jacket–slung open. Then throw your shirt over your shoulders for a casual look that’s great for dressing down a fancier going-out look. Or purposefully pick a smaller denim shirt (thrift stores are great for these), and wear as a cropped jacket with your summer dresses.

After seeing the BLANK NYC spring 2012 collection up close, we knew we were going to be psyched when the full line was revealed in lookbook form for spring 2012. The line ranges from rich, dark washes to baby-blue jeans, featuring fashion-forward separates like denim tunic dresses and workshirts to style with. Our favorites? A pair of stovepipe-legged medium-wash, mid-rise jeans that scream bohemian summer, and the range of colored ankle-crop skinnies that beg to be worn with a fierce pair of heels and a man’s tailored shirt. We have to give props for the form-fitting overalls, too: a valiant attempt at turning an accepted frumpy classic into something far more feminine. Check out the full lookbook below.
