Jasmine’s review: “Confession: I’m not a fan of most denim. The rationale behind this disdain is that I’m 5″4 and am curvy, so most jeans end up being too long, too baggy, or too tight. That being said, I wasn’t about to pass up the chance to try on Wandler’s denim. Usually, I wear anywhere from 27 to 30, depending on the brand and fit. Since I was nervous about the fit, I ordered Wandler’s black Poppy jeans in size 30. It was a miscalculation on my part, as I found they were a bit baggier and longer than I would have preferred and required me to style them with heels and consider adding a belt. Even though I should have gotten them in a smaller size, I’m a huge fan of their shape because, based on styling, they can become your mos...

Blue jeans—where would our wardrobes be without them? We dread to think. No item in your wardrobe is as hard-working and versatile as blue jeans. You can wear them for everything from shopping trips to brunch, walks in the park to weekend cocktails. But still, our reliance on them can sometimes mean we take them for granted and don’t give them the same love and attention as we do other items on our outfit roster. We simply throw them on without giving them so much as a second thought. Well, no more! To stop them from becoming stagnant—particularly in the colder months when we wear them as frequently as we do jumpers—we’ve found nine blue-jeans outfits that will help you truly appreciate them and unlock their full style potential. So whether you’re looking for new ways t...

Taylor Tomasi Hill is constantly a go-to source for sartorial inspiration. After all, she’s an industry veteran with a storied fashion career that has led her to her current role as the creative and fashion director of The Yes. (It’s the innovative shopping platform that uses your personal taste to provide daily product recommendations from top brands.) Her fashion selects are often of interest given her experience, fresh eye, and unique sense of personal style. So on that note, we wanted to learn more about one of the items she lives in on a daily basis. Yep, we’re talking about jeans. Below, you’ll uncover some of the denim silhouettes Tomasi Hill is gravitating toward this autumn. She also shared the specific trends she’s teaming with her go-to cuts to create her fresh an...

Bonjour, mes amies. Today is a good day because not only do we have Zara news, we have a double whammy of French style news too. Two incredible fashion forces have come together to give us the ultimate chic collaboration: Charlotte Gainsbourg’s denim collection for Zara. You read that right, the cool offspring of Jane Birkin and Serge Gainsbourg has designed a capsule range for the high-street mega brand, and we think you’re going to love it.  The actress and singer has a long history of wearing denim and double denim in particular, often styling a classic true blue denim shirt with a pair of blue jeans, so she knows what she’s talking about when it comes to this material. On the matter of the new line, Gainsbourg said: “I have always wanted to have a tiny...

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 the “grandpa” cut. But what’s one style that probably hasn’t surfaced to the top of the pile as much lately? Flares. Sure, cropped flares have been, well, cropping up over the last few years, but the more polarising bootcut and bell-bottom styles (aka non–skinny jeans) haven’t been as popular until recently. Designers from Alberta Ferretti to Dior reintroduced fresh flare jeans in their autumn/winter 2021 collections as the next It denim pick for the forward set. Even celebrities like Gigi Hadid, Margot Robbie, and Harry Styles have already been following suit in ’70s-in...

When we talk about classic jeans, it’s often blue pairs that spring to mind, but I think black jeans are just as timeless—even if they don’t receive the same airtime as their vintage-wash counterparts. Personally speaking, I always feel more pulled-together and polished in black jeans, which, I’ll argue, also transition from day to night more seamlessly, owning to their darker base colour. Still, just like any other jeans, black jeans outfits can become repetitive if you let them. So, in an attempt to stop them from becoming stale and tired, I’ve gone on the hunt for black jeans outfits that are classic, chic, and won’t let you down, wherever you might be going. Handily, there were a plethora of stylish looks to choose from; my favourites of which I’ve showcased below. Whether yo...

Hollister is a brand that’s been edging onto our radar over the past few seasons. Though it’s always been the place to go to invest in preppy staples like plaid shirts, pleated skirts, and collegiate knitwear, the American label has been seriously trending of late. Leading the ’90s and Y2K style charge with its endless array of preppy but stylish wares, Hollister has become a go-to for fashion types. And for autumn, Hollister has created jeans that tick off every major trend going, including extended sizes available in a variety of fits. (Keep an eye out for its Curvy edit.) Naturally, we felt it was only right to share them with you. Loose-fitting jeans have been a major player this year, and their popularity is continuin...

People got really hyped up about Y2K. It was the turn of the century, you could finally listen to that Prince song and mean it, plus there was a lot of talk how there was a computer bug that was going to turn everything off at the stroke of midnight as our PCs wouldn’t be able to understand the switch from 1999 to 2000. While programming disasters were (mostly) averted, I can’t say the same for fashion. Y2K fashion is a particular sort of era—sure, it was a simpler time when people could still wear jeans or a nice-top-and-trousers to a red carpet event but there were fedora hats, Juicy Couture trackies and lots of pointy-toe heels that everyone seemed to wear with bootcut jeans (shudders). The thing is Y2K trends are booming. Thanks to Gen Z, who didn’t experience the trends the first...

Whether they’re trialling this season’s divisive colour trend, stepping out with the latest hot-off-the-press designer bag or championing an undiscovered label, fashion girls love being ahead of the curve. The moment something reaches peak style saturation, you’ll often see them doing a full 180 in order to hold onto their individuality. This season, this has manifested in the reemergence of baggy jeans, aka the denim style you thought you left behind in the noughties. Sorry about that. Brought on by straight-leg jeans’ proliferation both on social media and in the general public over the last few years, this throwback style has garnered a steady stream of fans amongst Instagram’s trendsetters, who have relishe...
