Mom Denim The Funnel Sneak
“I am in my denim era: After years of boring skinny jeans, 2023’s denim trends are more exciting than ever, and I am fully embracing jean maxi skirts and unexpected styles. This extra-wide-leg style from Mother’s SNACKS! line looks just as good with sneakers and tank tops as with a button-down and heels.” — Irina Grechko, vogue directorMom Denim The Funner Sneak, $, obtainable at Mom Denim
Closed Nikka Denims
“As a petite human, I’m always on the hunt for oversized jeans that don’t swallow me whole. This pair from Closed is definitely an investment, but I’ve already gotten my fair share of wear out of them. They are buttery soft — literally feel like sweatpants — and the silhouette feels streamlined almost like a trouser, so I look put-together without feeling stiff. I’ve dressed these up with boots and heels, but they look just as good with sneakers or ballet flats.” — Kate Spencer, senior affiliate strategistClosed Closed Nikka wide-leg Denims, $, obtainable at Farfetch

Mango Denim Midi Skirt
“Of course, I jumped on spring’s must-have denim skirt trend. I can’t wait to wear it with my Schutz knee-high blocked heel boots for a night out, but this casual-Sunday-winery-tour fit is definitely more of my day-to-day style.” — Carli Whitwell, senior director of editorialMango Denim midi-skirt, $, obtainable at Mango
Dissh Pure Linen Vest & Midi Skirt

Artizia Satin Shirt
