Straight leg jeans are not only on trend, but also comfortable, especially in the hot summer days! I received this high waisted straight leg jeans and 3 different statement tops from Express, and I’m going to show you my favorite ways to style them in the summer.

Express is one of my go to places for statement tops! I love how many different styles they carry and how easy it is to exchange sizes at my local mall. My normal size in Express jeans are size 2 and typically their short length works perfectly for me without any alteration.
