When you’re packing for Spring Break, sticking to one color scheme or bringing pieces that can easily be layered is a smart way to save room in your bag for a few souvenirs. But if there’s one item that could go with just about anything, it’s jean shorts. Is there really anything more versatile than a pair of daisy dukes? They can be worn with all sorts of looks, and unlike other garments, it’s safe to give them a couple of wears before throwing them into the wash.

And just like denim shorts, ASOS has a ton of cute, affordable pieces that complement any look. See how we’ve styled some of their best Spring Break 2017 clothes and accessories for your upcoming trip – all with a classic blue denim hotpant!

  1. Going to the Beach
    Of course denim shorts are the ultimate beachy keen necessity, and this look is as functional as it is fashionable. With an adorable off-the-shoulder top, wearing this bright strapless suit under your shorts lets you rock a relaxed sun goddess vibe while still having a pop of color.

  2. Hanging Around Town

  3. Hitting Up The Nightlife
    Who says you can’t wear jean shorts when you’re out? On Spring Break, anything goes, so give this sassy look a try. Bonus: These effortless espadrilles sandals with metallic detail are a two-for-one deal (see first look), and transition seamlessly from day to night

Like what you see? Any of these looks would go great in a white or black denim short, too. Happy packing, collegiettes!
