This denim jacket is 100% cotton, in a versatile mid-indigo wash with classic trucker jacket styling, and it runs true to size. It’s a nice way to add structure to these wide-leg pants in a subtle shade of off-white.

These pants are right on trend for spring 2023, and I’m really impressed with the fit and feel. They come in a wide range of sizes, as well as short and long options. Plus, the raw hem allows you to cut them to your desired length.

I topped them off with this ribbed henley t-shirt in a gorgeous shade of pink. I love how the henley style neckline adds interest to the simple look, and the fitted top helps to define the waist.

My next look features the same denim jacket with white flares and a navy linen dolman tee.

Every few years, I find the perfect linen tee that I wear on repeat all spring and summer for several years in a row. I’m always sad to retire it for fear I won’t find anything as good again.

I still have my black one from last year, but the one before that was navy, and I wore it until it was practically threadbare.

Well, I’m calling it now. This Relaxed Linen Dolman Tee is the 2023 version of that perfect linen tee. It has such an easy fit with the perfect drape, and it comes in a bunch of colors, but I went with navy because I know how much I wore my old one.

And as for these jeans, flares are a great option for those who don’t care for the wide-leg silhouette, but want to update their denim wardrobe for spring 2023. This pair has a classic fit, with front patch pockets for a little extra style value.

They have a 32″ inseam and just a hint of stretch, and they run true to size. I’m wearing the 28, but they were pretty snug. I probably will end up keeping the 29 instead. (I always order both sizes these days, because I never know which is going to work.)

I also love wearing a denim jacket with dresses this time of year, and Gap Factory has several casual dresses that caught my eye, like this 100% cotton pocket t-shirt dress.

I think the combination of this bright pink with the medium-wash blue denim is so pretty!

This dress also comes in black and olive, and it has a bit of a slub texture that’s really nice.

I’m wearing the medium here, but I also ordered the olive in small, and it fits me fine too… probably better than the medium, so I’d say this dress is true to size.

When I wear a denim jacket this time of year, I usually cuff the sleeves. It keeps me a little cooler, and 3/4-length sleeves are typically more flattering than full-length. Plus, it just looks a little more intentionally styled.

And I didn’t photograph this look with the denim jacket, but it would certainly look great over this black rayon v-neck shift dress.

I love the neckline on this one, and it’s super lightweight and cool and comfortable. I’m definitely packing this one for Italy!

It also comes in a pretty blue and white stripe, and it runs true to size. I’m wearing the regular size small, but it also comes in petite and tall sizes, if you need that.
