How to Clean and Care for Women’s Jeans

Washing denim properly helps maintain its colour, shape and overall quality, ensuring it stands the test of time. Follow these simple steps to wash and care for your favourite denim pieces:

• Separate by Colour:

Separate dark and light denim to prevent colour bleeding. Wash similar shades together to maintain the integrity of the fabric.

• Turn Inside Out:

Turn the jeans inside out. This helps protect the outer surface and minimises fading.

• Use Cold Water:

Use cold water to wash denim. Cold water helps preserve the colour and prevents shrinkage.

• Use a Mild Detergent:

Use a mild detergent formulated for delicate fabrics. Avoid using bleach or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the fabric.

• Select a Gentle Cycle:

Use a gentle or delicate cycle on your washing machine. Avoid heavy agitation, as it can cause unnecessary wear and tear.

• Skip Fabric Softener:

Avoid using fabric softener. It can leave a residue on the denim, affecting its texture and appearance.

• Air Dry:

Air drying is the best method for denim. Hang your jeans or lay them flat to dry. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent fading.

How to Style Women’s Jeans

Styling women's denim jeans offers endless possibilities for creating versatile and fashionable outfits. Here are some tips on how to do it:

Casual Chic with a White Tee

Pair your jeans with a classic white t-shirt for an effortlessly cool and timeless look. Add trainers or ankle boots for a casual yet chic ensemble.

Elevate with a Smart Blouse

Dress up your denim with a stylish blouse or button-down shirt. Tuck it in and add a statement belt and boots for a sophisticated and polished outfit.

Layer with Knitwear

During colder months, layer a cosy chunky knit jumper or a cardigan over your jeans. This adds warmth and creates a comfortable, stylish outfit.

Experiment with Double Denim

Layer different shades of denim for a cool and cohesive look. Just make sure there's enough contrast between the pieces to create depth and dimension.

Go Boho with Flowy Tunics

Pair your jeans with loose, flowy tunic tops for a fun and free-spirited bohemian-inspired look. Opt for flared or bootcut jeans, some layered necklaces and boots to complete this remarkable retro ensemble.

How to Style Women’s Tailored Trousers

Women’s tailored trousers can serve as part of a phenomenal three-piece suit, but they’re capable of much more than that, too. Pair your tailored trousers with a lightweight blouse for a perfect summer workwear style, or contrast the sleek formality of your tailored trousers with a graphic t-shirt for a fun smart-casual look. 

One look we love for warm weather occasions is tailored trousers paired with a matching waistcoat which serves as the outfit’s top. You can also dial this look down for slightly more informal events by swapping out the waistcoat and pairing your tailored trousers with a vest top, instead.

In winter, women’s tailored trousers look sublime with a fitted, high-necked jumper. 

How to Style Women’s Shorts

Women’s shorts are much more versatile than the typical t-shirt and pumps ensemble. Slip them under a tunic or a floaty mini dress for a boho summer look. Add sandals and a cami top and they’re a dream holiday style. Or try pairing your shorts with boots and an embroidered blouse for an outfit that wouldn’t look out of place in Nashville.

In winter, don’t pack your shorts away. Just wear them with some funky tights! 

How to Style Women’s Leggings

Leggings are the ultimate comfy women’s trousers, ideal for wearing with loungewear and slouchy knits. However, they can easily be dressed up, whether you’re popping them under a shorter dress to make it a little more workwear-appropriate or styling them with a blouse and heels.
