There was no escaping the ‘90s this year, and that’s set to carry on into 2021, with a big focus on straight-leg styles. Karolina Ekman, collection manager for & Other Stories, said that the straight cut continues to be a favourite: “We love the timeless appeal of this iconic garment, and our core jeans collection of five new cuts celebrates that.” But it’s not just the high street which is celebrating this trend in the upcoming collections. Heajun Park, womenswear design director, EMEA, for 7 For All Mankind, said similar: “For 2021, we believe that straight fits will be our strongest performers, so we’ve focused our attention on the Alexa and Modern Straight and expanded our selection of colours and washes.  You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for...

Admittedly, my trusty flares haven’t had much airtime over the last few months. The one downside to the style is that they’re not so good for super low-key looks. But the moment I get the chance, I’ll be throwing them on with my favourite heeled boots and blouse. Elegant yet personality packed, it’s a denim style that never fails to make me feel polished, even if I’m just wearing a white tee and blazer.  The great thing about denim is that you can mould it to your own personal taste and wardrobe requirements. However, if you’re looking for a few styling cues to keep your flares feeling fresh, I’ve put together an edit of autumn outfits to spark inspiration. From Slip Into Style’s classic check blazer and fla...

À Paris, nous devons beaucoup marcher. C’est pourquoi tout est chic mais toujours très pratique. Je vous garantie chaque parisienne possède des baskets, des bottes Chelsea et un trench-coat – toutes les pièces que l’on peu associer à un jean. Depuis peu, je vois aussi beaucoup de cardigans et de gilets en tricot sans manches (qui semblent être la pièce de transition parfaite) associés à des jeans. La clé est vraiment de faire en sorte que les pièces simples et minimales soient toujours intéressantes. Pour moi, il s’agit de combiner les couleurs, les tissus et les coupes, puis d’ajouter une touche finale avec de superbes accessoires. Si j’ai un t-shirt uni et un jean avec une ceinture marron, je l’associe à un manteau marron ou j’assortis mon ...

In Paris, we have to do a lot of walking. That’s why everything is chic but still very practical. I swear: Every Parisian woman owns trainers, Chelsea boots, and a trench coat, and that’s mostly what we pair with jeans. Recently, I’ve also been seeing lots of cardigans and sleeveless knit vests—which seem like the perfect transitional piece—paired with jeans. The key is really making simple, minimal pieces still feel interesting. For me, it’s all about colour combinations, fabrics, and fit; and then adding a finishing touch with great accessories. If I have a plain T-shirt and jeans with a brown belt, I’ll pair that with a brown coat or match my T-shirt to my outerwear for a tonal look that keeps things modern. I have to say, Gap does some of my favourite T-shirts. They’re slightly thicker...

Although some people may have proudly taken a break from them during lockdown, denim jeans will always be a closet staple. The iconic item has been a key wardrobe must-have for generations, with ever-evolving shapes and silhouettes acting as a time-capsule of their era.  When it comes to A/W20 there are a few denim trends that have caught our attention this season. And while no jean trend is particularly groundbreaking, it is often the smallest tweaks and details that make the biggest impact. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

If I opened your denim drawer right now, I bet I could guess some of the key silhouettes stored inside—straight-leg jeans, skinnies, and perhaps even an of-the-moment outlier like those “grandpa” cuts. But what’s one style that probably hasn’t surfaced to the top of the pile as much as of late? Flares. Sure, cropped flares have been well, cropping up, over the last few years, but the more polarising bootcut and bell-bottom styles (aka anti–skinny jeans) haven’t been as popular again until recently.  That’s right, designers from Celine to Paco Rabanne reintroduced fresh flared jeans in their S/S 2020 collections as the next It denim pick for the forward set. And fun fact, celebrities like Gigi Hadid, Margot Robbie, andHarry Styles have already been following suit in ’70s-ins...

Before we dive in, let’s just remember that in reality, skinny jeans could basically be considered a classic at this point. Sure, people may have varying views on the cut, but they’re more or less timeless. That said, a style on the other end of the denim spectrum continues to increase in popularity—and definitely will thrive come fall. Yep, we’re talking about those loose, straight-leg jeans. More specifically, the silhouettes that are especially relaxed. In fact, we recently highlighted this trending fall 2020 denim cut as showcased on the runways. Well today, we thought we’d dive in a bit deeper with some visual inspiration on how fashion people are wearing loose-fitting jeans. With that in mind, keep scrolling for a range of outfit ideas featuring this top-notch denim silhoue...

I don’t think there’s anything new you can say about jeans. Even if they’re not the item you wear all the time, everyone owns at least one pair. Since the 1960s, they have been a mainstay in our wardrobes—they are the piece that anchors so many of our outfits. From weekend looks to casual dinners as well as that nice-top-and-jeans ensemble, they’re the background noise of our closets. They only make a real impact if you focus on them, and they let the other pieces in your outfit shine. If, like me, you’ve spent less time in jeans, preferring to wear leggings or smart trackies as you live out lockdown, then you might be wondering why you’d even bother wearing them again. Well, firstly, this situation won’t last forever, and secondly, 2020’s summer jeans trend is comfier th...

The S/S 20 runways were rife with exciting trends for us to look forward to next year. (Colourful leather! Bermuda shorts! Waistcoats! And ’60s wallpaper prints, to name but a few.) But we particularly had our eyes on all things denim. The everyday staple had a huge presence on the runways—with every big designer from Givenchy to Gucci and Celine showcasing the much-loved fabric in a variety of refreshing ways, including cropped culottes, vintage washes and ’70s flares. (Yes, they’re back!) Scroll below as we share some of the biggest jean trends that we can expect to see all over our feeds, in our favourite retailers, and inevitably in our closets this year. Then, shop the looks before everyone else. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for D...
