Jeans are a forever staple, but do you ever feel… like they’re a little plain sometimes?
Instead of chasing the newest trendy jean of the season - hop on this year’s train & spice up the old pair gathering dust in your wardrobe! From delicate anklets to edgy studs, here are five fresh ways to personalise your denim and turn those old basics into your new favourite statement piece.
Switch things up & save your money:
Anklets aren’t just for bare ankles - wearing them over your jeans adds a playful dimension and flattering shape to your legs! It’s an unexpected detail and Y2K-inspired twist that lets you show off your shoes that were once hiding underneath your baggy jeans, and is reminiscent of those warmer summer days…
💎 Style Tip: Try stacking necklace chains or get creative and safety pin the front of the ankle area to achieve that cinched look!
Simple, useful & an effortless addition, add a carabiner to your keychain and clip it to your belt loop! It adds a cool detail to your jeans that looks like you’re not trying too hard, but also adds a touch of personality - and is a great way to keep essentials close. Very streetwear vibes, and a great excuse to collect more keychains and match with your bestie.
🔑 Style Tip: Mix and match metals, add mini pouches, or even DIY your own charms to make it your own. Who needs a handbag when your jeans can hold it all?
Studded bags, shoes, tops, jeans… it’s all the craze on social media, and for good reason too! Keep it simple with the rest of your outfit and let your studded denim do the talking (don’t wear ALL your studded outfits at once). It’s edgy & punk-rock - a contrast to recent hyper-feminine trends that have been circling over the last year.
🎸 Style Tip: For extra flair, create patterns or mix studs and patches for a bold and personalised look.
Playful & nostalgic, patches are making a comeback! A great way to upcycle a pair of your old favourites or a fun DIY project for a rainy day, these add colour and texture to make your jeans pop. Line them down your leg, add them to your back pockets or scatter them randomly - it’s an easy upgrade that’ll get your friends asking where you got them from.
⭐️ Style Tip: Mix fabrics, cut your own shapes, or even combine this trend with another for an extra fresh and unforgettable look!
Layering is an art, and adding an extra belt is one of easiest ways to add dimension and style to your waistline. We saw Alix Earle rock about five belts at Coachella, which is enough of a sign that this trend is so in! Dig into your wardrobe and find all those belts you forgot you purchased or don’t know how to wear to mix and match - it might sound a little extra, but trust me, this is super flattering and will complete your look.
🧣 Style Tip: Pair your skinny chain belt with your chunky leather one for some contrast, or swap one out for a wrapped scarf for something that's still statement, but a little softer.
Jeans should be more than just a wardrobe staple - they should feel comfortable, fun, and just like you! Don’t be afraid to play around, mix things up, and show off a denim deck-out that’s totally you.
