Denim Dungarees: Overall a Great Idea

Plentiful pockets, comfy denim—there are many reasons to love overalls. This childhood classic has become a fashion favorite, and now is a better time than ever to invest in a pair of overalls that awakens your inner nine-year-old.

If you needed any more reasons to go out and get yourself into a pair of denim overalls, here are a few that might spark you to action.

Storage Capacity

Who needs a handbag when your pants-top combo can carry all your essentials? Store a cell phone, lipstick, keys and cash in the front pocket of your denim dungarees and head out the door without a care in the world.

Easy On, Easy Off

Unlike your more serious-minded jumpsuits, which require some wriggling to remove, taking off your overalls involves little more than the simple unhooking of a clasp. It’s never been easier to glide onto a beach and doff your one-piece garment to reveal the bikini underneath and run into the ocean.

Comfort is King

Though you could choose a tight pair of overalls, the best ones give you a bit more room to breathe. Pick up overalls in soft, worn-in denim that float around your body, giving you an airy cover-up on the hottest days. Just make sure to adjust the straps to ensure a suitable fit.

Stone-Cold Cute

Though your primary overall-wearing days preceded your ability to drive a car or pay taxes, they’re just as adorable on you now. Try styling your overalls with a sexy off-the-shoulder Bardot top, a striped tank or a traditional button-down for a variety of looks. Finish the outfit off with sturdy, grown-up looking shoes like oxfords or brogues, or play up the girlish vibe with a pair of jelly sandals.

Forget cutoffs and rompers—you need an all-in-one garment that keeps you cool, cute and comfortable. Denim overalls do all that and more.

Overalls, overalls, uber alles!
