Chambray is one of those essential pieces in anyone’s closet. While it is normally synonymous with fall and winter, it can be a go-to piece for summer as well. Here are four ways to wear chambray in summer!
Chambray in Summer: A Short Skirt
Pairing chambray with a short skirt, especially a printed one, is an easy way to wear chambray. It is perfect for those cool summer days. This is also a great way to feel summery if you are spending a lot of time in the air conditioning and need more layers.
Chambray in Summer: Over a Dress
Going in and out of air conditioning? Or know you will be outside at night once it cools down? Try throwing on a chambray shirt over a dress. It is an easy layer that can be removed when needed. Not feeling the open look? Try knotting the bottom of your shirt for a look that is more like a skirt and top, but you can still loose a layer.
PS: Pretend this look doesn’t have leggings 🙂
Chambray in Summer: a Maxi Skirt
Pairing chambray with a maxi skirt is another easy way to wear it. It gives you a summery feel but gives you plenty of coverage. Heading to work and it is a #CubeTundra? Wear this combo as you stare wistfully at the sunshine outside.
Chambray in Summer: Denim on Denim
Feeling adventurous? Try pairing chambray with denim. Just make sure the shades of denim are different. If your chambray shirt is on the light side, pair it with dark jeans/shorts. Add some excitement with a big statement necklace and throw on some simple sandals and you are ready to go!
There you have it! Do you have any other combinations on how to wear chambray in the summer?

Oh ho I love me some chambray!! You look perfect tin all of these, I especially love the long lacey skirt..so pretty!!
You really can’t go wrong with chambray! After pulling this post together I realized I need to pull that skirt out more often.
Seriously love chambray. I got the best chambray shirt at J.Crew about 4 years ago and I wear it often! Gorgeous styling!
Thanks! Those buys that you can keep pulling out year after year are the best.
I love your maxi skirt! It has such a great bohemian feel to it! I also love how you paired the two denims together. The contrast was great and it didn’t feel like you were head-to-toe in denim; the necklace also drew the eye away from the whole denim look and pulled it all together!
Thank you so much Rebekah!
I love the jeans and the skirt outfits.
Thanks Christine 🙂
These are some really great ideas! I’ve been meaning to try denim on denim but I’m nervous. Haha. You pull it off so well!
I’m in love with all the outfits!
Thank you Adriana!
I can’t pick my favorite…but seeing you in the short skirt with chambray…going to try that soon!
That might be my favorite one to wear 🙂
Chambray shirts are the best! So versatile!
They really are!
Great ways to wear chambray! I think the look with the maxi skirt is my favourite 🙂 I just love maxi skirts!

I’m a big fan of maxi skirts too 🙂
My favourite look is with the shorter floral skirt. SO cute but you can rock anything! I wish I could pull off that tiered lace maxi skirt. DROOLING!
Thanks Abbie! I actually sometimes struggle with that maxi skirt. But I need to pull it out again ASAP!
I’m a big fan of the chambray over a dress look 🙂 something I do all the time xoxo
It is such a fun and easy look!
