The party continues in the third installment of 7 for All Mankind‘s latest fashion campaign video, “Henry Hopper” by James Franco. If the face and the name seem familiar, he is indeed the son of legendary actor Dennis Hopper. That glimmer in his eye and the expressions he makes can only partially distract us from the fact he was styled in a denim shirt (unbuttoned, oh yes) in one scene, and a white denim jacket and neon sunnies à la ’80s style in another. We’re getting a little hot and bothered over here at Denim Therapy, and it isn’t the weather that’s causing it.
Need more festivity watching? Watch Episode 2, entitled “Birthday Party”. Stay tuned for more denim fashion campaign videos!

Sometimes simple is the best way to go, and as the temperature rises, we’re thinking less about styling in layers and more about how little we can possibly wear this summer. Monika W. has the right idea, keeping it classy and cool with Naf Naf denim shorts and a x-eyed H&M black tanktop. Supporting accessories include a vintage “granny bag” and gladiator sandals (which live on in humble form in comparison to the theatrical counterparts they burst on the scene with a few years ago). A few barcelets and a simple, chic hair-cut make this summer ensemble a winner.
