This Summery Denim Trend Is What Everyone Will Order to Wear With Flats

After wearing 100% cotton straight-leg jeans for months on end, I’m kind of bored. That said, I’m not quite ready to give up jeans yet, even though warmer weather is here. What I am ready to do is invest in a more seasonally appropriate style. Enter Sienna Miller.
While in London recently, Miller was photographed wearing the perfect casual spring outfit, which included the perfect casual denim trend. The trend is wide-leg patch-pocket jeans, which she paired with a blouse, a cardigan, and Gucci Horsebit Ballet Flats. Truth be told, it’s been a minute since I considered ordering a pair of cropped wide-leg jeans, but I’m feeling inspired. The sailor pant–inspired jeans look spot-on for spring with a pretty boho blouse or even just a simple tank or T-shirt. And a cropped wide leg always looks best with flats, so that’s how I predict chic dressers will style them for spring and summer.
If you, too, are ready for a new pair of warm-weather jeans, keep scrolling to shop patch-pocket, wide-leg pairs similar to Miller’s.
