For many stylists and designers, winter is a season where fashion takes a more practical seat; we know the looks for winter need to be very wearable pieces. The good news this season is that fashion has ripped up the denim rulebook, incorporating fresh and lavish new details to classic denim looks. The blues are on winning form in the midst of an incredibly fun and adventurous fashion moment, when anything from baggy to white-wash, or high-rise, and even patchwork—goes.
For every winter mood, there is a jean and a style. Here are a few denim tips to keep you fashionably warm this winter.
That 70s Denim
The paper-bag waist makes for a 70-esquefeel with vintage hued denim characterizing the season. From faded blue to metallic inserts, don’t fear to bring a little “old school,” back to your wardrobe. The paper-bag waist works well with a tuck-in top or shirt and warm knee length coat.
Patchwork Denim
Are you bored with your regular skinny jeans? Trade your skinnies in for a patchwork look to add a fun twist to your everyday staple. Opt for a colourful patchwork print to brighten up the winter months. Pair the patchwork jeans with ankle boots and golden-hued jewellery for a tasteful style up.
White Denim
We all know denim, but are you familiar with white denim? White is slowly seeping into the fashion pages with some fashion gurus deeming it “the new black”. For those of you who want to switch in your white shirts for a more casual chic look, this is the trend for you. The best look for white denim is slightly distressed baggy boyfriend jeans. Perfect for any winter ensemble! Style it up with a knitted sweater in neutral tones and a cosy hat for a classy and chic touch. High Rise Skinny High Rise Skinny
High Rise Skinny
Make the most of your waistline with high rise jeans. The “rise,” meets skinny with this newly updated classic look. A great colour for this trend is light grey for added definition around the hip and thigh area. Finish the look with a black heel and bright coloured top for a pop of colour.
