They're versatile, and are great with crop tops as they are with your favourite Chikankari kurta.

Rumour has it that the first pair of black denims were spotted on Elvis Presley. While traditional jeans are mostly in different washes of blue, a classic black pair of denims is another staple in your wardrobe that you can wear for various occasions.

A tapered pair of jeans gradually narrows toward the ankle and is super popular among those who love their joggers. 

How to Style: To complete the look, wear slightly oversized white tees, a cool pair of sneakers, and sunglasses. You can also wear loose-fitted shirts here. We saw florals as the choice of Pinterest girlies.

Another types of jeans that has become a hot trend to wear! Barell jeans feature a fitted waist and a wide leg fit that tapers at the ankles to give it that balloon-y flared-out fit at the thighs. It suits pear shaped bodies the best but can also be considered flattering if you an hourglass body since it draws attention at the waist. Team it with a fitted tank top, a nice cardigan or a crisp white shirt but don't go for silhouettes that are loose-fitted since that can make the overall look bulky.

Jorts had a moment in fashion in 2024 but slowly went away from our feeds which we are kinda glad about since pulling off these is not everyone's cup of tea. These jeans are a style of shorts that have a more relaxed fit and are slightly longer, channeling the classic jeans with a 'lazy-boy' take on them.

How To Style: A classic, comfortable, and supremely stylish way to hop on the Jorts trend is to inculcate it with denim on denim. It's sophisticated, comparatively formal, and looks chic. The similar silhouette creates a flow to the outfit that has an edge to it. While making sure your accessorise right is important to take the fit to the next level.

Occasion To Wear: Your summery day outings when you want to go for a chill, athletic look.
