Having trouble getting dressed in the morning? We can relate. It’s always a little uncertain to know which way the temperature is going to go at this time of year.
The usual prescription is to dress in layers that can be removed, but if you’re a fan of a streamlined, minimal trend, this can feel fussy.
The perfect solution? Spring denim. If you’ve had a look through the latest ranges and racks in stores you’ll know designers tend to agree. There’s plenty of mid-weight denim, be it wide-leg pants and matching shirts, or boxy crops and long bermuda-style denim shorts on offer.
White denim is in demand too, with a crisp summer vibe but offering a bit more structure and warmth.
Even a slight retro 70s vibe high-waisted, wide-leg jean still looks great with a tight tee and slimline trainers – think Puma Speedcats – or a more chunky platform heel, the way Sienna Miller is reviving her boho-moment right now.
Fashion-forward dressers are still loving the tapered barrel- leg style too.
A happy medium is offered by straight-leg jeans that, as the name suggests, should sit straight from the hip to ankle without catching or pulling.
