Here’s how to style this season’s stand-out denim trend.
The ubiquitous blue jean will forever remain a wardrobe staple, but that doesn’t mean you can’t experiment with other washes. For spring, a new wave of colorful denim is shaping up to be a major fashion trend, and chief among the most wearable hues are earth tones.
Softer than stark white yet fresher than traditional indigo, jeans in tan, beige, or taupe washes strike the perfect balance for the season ahead. They serve as a sophisticated alternative to your old faithful blue and black pairs, and the neutral colorway makes them uber versatile, seasonless, and easy to dress up and down with a range of looks.
There, of course, is a key to mastering the trend, but the formula is pretty straightforward. In the same way styling classic blue jeans is easy, beige denim acts as a blank canvas for any outfit. They pair seamlessly with other neutrals and can be styled in a gazillion different ways, whether with a simple black tee and ballet flats, a crisp button down shirt and trench coat, or beautiful evening jacket and pumps. You can even mix and match with other washes of denim, like a true blue jean jacket, or go for a tonal look as Sienna Miller so chicly did a few years back.
But let’s say, you wanted to incorporate some color into your ensemble with a bright sweater or low-profile sneakers (it is spring after all!), a neutral pair of jeans allows vibrant shades and bold prints to shine.
Beige denim is really a style you can’t go wrong with, especially since you can wear it year-round.
