Jeans + a shirt: your spring styling sorted
This power pairing makes getting dressed the easiest part of your day
Think of a uniform and you’d be forgiven for picturing images of a police officer or a traffic warden. But in the fashion lexicon, a ‘uniform’ refers to a failsafe outfit that you can reach for every morning for almost every eventuality. And far from being generic, you can tweak it to make it your own.
While this winter has been all about slip skirts and chunky knits (an easy, reliable look that isn’t going anywhere), spring calls for something lighter. Enter a shirt and a pair of jeans.
The beauty of this pairing is that you can opt to style it as high or low as you desire. Slim jeans and a crisp white shirt with a pair of kitten heels and a ladylike handbag is arguably work-smart; a boyfriend jean and an oversize Kin top is effortless and works for brunch as well as taking the kids down to the park. Play around with silhouettes: leave loose-fit shirts untucked when worn with skinny jeans for a fashion-forward feel or channel a Seventies look with an embellished blouse and bootcut legs.
