Denim has forever been a staple in everyone’s closet. As simple and easy as it is, sometimes it’s fun to spice up your normal denim routine! Many designers are changing up their denim styles with cropped flares, while boyfriend jeans and ripped denim continue to be a mainstay. Personalization has also become popular. With brands such as Madewell that allow you to customize your denim pieces with monograms, names, or just a special word or phrase that you love, it’s easier than ever. Here are my five favorite denim picks for the mid-spring denim refresh.
1. Mother Inside Crop Step Fray: $228
This high-rise crop has become increasingly popular and is a best seller from Mother Denim! The updated crop has a fray hem and just enough stretch to adjust to your body while still keeping its original shape. The style comes in multiple colors, but this medium blue wash is the most versatile of the options.
2. Scotch & Soda/Maison Scotch Fringe Button Down: $109
This over-dyed chambray button-down is the perfect comfortable and stylish piece. Its boxy, oversized shape is perfect for a relaxed feel and the fringe in the back gives it some added flair. Pair it with your favorite pair of jeans for the ultimate denim on denim look. 3. Levi’s Wedgie Fit Shorts: $98
Levi’s new “wedgie fit” denim is designed to hug you waist and your hips, and as Levi’s says, it showcases “your best asset!” You may have seen Kylie Jenner recently wearing them, as she was one of the first celebrities to promote the new fit on her social media accounts. This pair is heavyweight selvedge denim and has a raw hem. It’s available in four different shades, and the “wedgie fit” is available in jeans as well. 4. Madewell’s Jean Jacket in Ellery Wash: $118
I mentioned earlier that Madewell has its new customized denim feature that I am extremely excited about. This denim jacket will be the first piece that I order because (1) who doesn’t love a great jean jacket, (2) they go with everything, and (3) you can customize it! If you scroll through their Instagram, you can find plenty of inspiration pics for monogramming ideas on all of their denim items.
5. Lovers + Friends Ezra Slim Boyfriend Jean: $188
Everyone loves a good pair of boyfriend jeans, and this pair is the perfect combination of comfy boyfriend jeans and slim fitting pants. This pair in white is vibrant and fun for spring and the upcoming summer season! They’re also quite versatile and can easily be dressed up or down with some sneakers of a pair of heeled sandals.
