Jennifer Garner gives dungarees ageless appeal with this cool, casual summer look
And the denim staple can transition effortlessly into autumn, too
There is something so lovely about dungarees in August, with their cool and casual appeal playing perfectly into the season – and Jennifer Garner just gave them a sunny spin with her ageless summer styling.
Over on Instagram, Jennifer could be seen wearing some pinstriped dungarees over a buttery yellow tee. Offering the comfort of jeans, her denim staple added a laidback spin, alongside her bright yellow wellies and wide-brimmed sun hat, a great look for enjoying the outdoors.
A good pair of overalls like Jennifer’s tick some of the same boxes as the best jumpsuits. A timeless and flattering fit, this relaxed look is ideal for casual moments, offering the easy styling of a one-piece, but often more comfort than dresses.
These Dickies dungarees boast a 'boyfriend fit,' which means they're gently oversized and have a more relaxed shape than other, more fitted styles. As well as adding comfort, this also creates that effortless feel Jennifer's outfit embodies.
Subtle piping around the neckline gives this & Other Stories t-shirt a charming, vintage-inspired feel. With a slim-fit silhouette and short sleeves, you get a sleek and unfussy shape to layer under dungarees over the summer.
Similar to Jennifer's pinstripe dungarees, this pair by White Stuff have a light pattern that brings texture and interest to the one-piece design. Perfect for summer, they're made from light linen fabric to keep you cool and let skin breathe.
The fitted shape of this t-shirt makes it ideal for slipping on under dungarees, as it reduces any bulkiness. In a gorgeously pale butter yellow hue, it will complement light-wash denim beautifully.
These bold yellow wellies feel surprisingly wearable thanks to their Chelsea boot-inspired design. Cut to an ankle height, they're easily styled with jeans and dungarees, while their non-slip is a practical finishing touch.
Like Jennifer's sun hat, this one from Amazon has a Fedora-like shape that is not only stylish but also helps to keep your face protected from the sun thanks to its wide brim. Reviews say it 'looks beautiful' and is 'comfortable' to wear.
When it comes to denim, light wash blues like Jennifer’s dungarees are ideal for casual wear. This well-loved tone is super versatile and can be worn in many different ways.
Jennifer opted for an on-trend shade, styling her dungarees with a buttery yellow top. This soft, sorbet colour is always at home in summer outfits, and I love that she highlighted it by finishing off her look with a pair of bolder yellow wellies.
To make the look slightly smarter, or more appropriate for city streets, you can easily swap the wellies out for a pair of your best white trainers or, as another heatwave looms, your most comfortable sandals. Try out Jennifer’s colourful approach to styling, or go for a trusty neutral when it comes to your accessories – they’ll always look timeless against denim.
