All the outfit inspiration you need to style straight leg jeans

A pair of straight leg jeans are a denim essential and a favourite among the fashion pack. Incredibly versatile and universally flattering, this simple cut is the cooler alternative to your classic skinny jeans.

Whilst there will always be room in our wardrobe rotation for our trusty skinnies, other denim silhouettes have climbed up the fashion ladder including straight leg jeans. Looser than the aforementioned skinny (and therefore comfier) but not as baggy as a mom or wide-leg, straight leg jeans make the perfect in-between. Often sitting high on the waist, they fall straight down the leg for a relaxed fit. Easy to dress up or down, straight leg jeans have heaps of styling potential, making them worthy of a spot in your capsule wardrobe.

Whether you choose to pair them with a relaxed blazer or a sparkly shoe, straight leg jeans are the building block to endless styling opportunities.
