We know we're not the only ones living in jeans right now. Sorry to our midi dresses, but the cold weather has arrived and with it, the longing for comfort and cosiness that a good pair of true blues can bring. Especially when paired with a slouchy knit jumper.
While our denim collection encompasses a fair few different leg silhouettes – barrel, turn-up, a classic straight fit – we've found ourselves reaching repeatedly for one cut in particular: wide leg jeans. Not only is the style universally flattering, but they also work with pretty much every autumn/winter shoe trend going, including knee-high boots (!!) thanks to the roomy shape.
And we think we've found the perfect pair of wide-leg jeans, beating every other design on the high street. Allow us to introduce you to Marks and Spencer's take on the trend.
Coming in six different washes (black, indigo, medium, light, brown and cream), the jeans are cut slim at the hips and loose through the leg with a high waist. Available in sizes six through 24 as well as various leg lengths, it's never been easier to find your perfect fit. No wonder they've had over 2,000 five-star reviews!
As for how to style them, the dark indigo hue is smart enough to take to the office when paired with a blazer, while allowing you to simultaneously nail one of AW25's biggest jean trends. Lean into the casual feel of light denim on lazy weekends, worn with loafers and a striped rugby top for a preppy twist.
Or, for instant polish, rep head-to-toe winter white with the ecru wide-leg jeans providing the foundations of a seasonally chic monochrome ensemble comprised entirely of neutral hues.
The styling options are endless! But no need to decide which colour is for you. Given they retail for just £36, we'll be snapping up a few.
