To me,
Spring is a great time to for a denim update. It’s when I like to dig out some
of my lighter washes, and maybe treat myself to a new fit for the warmer months
ahead. In the past I’ve gone with Mom jeans and slouchy boyfriend shapes, but
this year I’m heading for the crop.
The cut off
style was actually one I wasn’t sure about – I guess I initially though it’d be
something like the pairs I used to go for in the noughties, matched with a
strappy top and white eye shadow (I think it’s universal that we’re all not
okay with the fact that teens are now skipping this stage). Instead, the style now
seems a lot more ‘grown up’, something that my 24-year-old self can get away
with.
The pair I’m
wearing here are new in from H&M… A casual, lighter wash just right for
this in-between season where the weather can’t quite make it’s mind up. It may
only be a little ankle flash, but it’s a nod to warmer temperatures to come,
without freezing your nips off.
I’ve mostly
been wearing these with my mid heels to lengthen my legs out a bit. I do feel
like I need an extra bit of height in this cut, but for keeping things casual I
love those blocky heels. I hope I get round to wearing this denim pair on a
summer night out though – I’m sure they’d be larrrvely with a strappy black
heel & off the shoulder top. In my head I’ve got Dirty Dancing vibes crossed
with Sandy from Grease?

I'm a big fan of cropped jeans this year also, I've only really bought into the cropped flares trend but after seeing this post I'll totally be treating myself to a pair similar to these - I love how they look and how you've styled them with that block heel!
