It’s no secret that denim is having a moment, and we’re not just talking about jeans. From button-down shirts to jackets to skirts, stars likeReese Witherspoon,Kelly Clarkson, andCéline Dionhave been wearing denim inso many creative ways.

AndChristie Brinkleyjust showed us how to make the trend even more fall-ready. In a recent Instagram post, the supermodel wore a denim midi dress with a flowy hem, long sleeves, and a button-down design.

Denim is ideal for fall weather thanks to the sturdy fabric that keeps you warm, and wearing it in midi dress form, like Brinkley, is smart during cooler seasons. Denim dresses are timeless and easy to dress up or down. Plus,Taylor Swift and Hilary Duffare fans of variations of the style.

If you’re looking to swap out your little black dress for something different, we’ve rounded up denim dresses that you can wear every day from Amazon, Nordstrom, Madewell, and more — they start at just $37.
