Not all beautiful things grow in the garden, but printed denim options are growing like wild-flowers. Okay, enough floral puns! We’re here to introduce 6 pairs of jeans that have nothing to do with floral print. They fall more into the families of polka-dots, pinstripes, and various interpretations of geometric-tribal. What they all have in common is, you can throw on a basic tee and you’ve got an outfit made.
1. Sass & Bide The Headliner Jeans 2. Each x Other Polka-dot mid-rise skinny jeans 3. Current/Elliott The Ankle Skinny Jeans

4. Tibi Velocity Easy Jeans 5. Rag & Bone Dash striped slim-leg jeans 6. Superfine Union Jack Jeans

When it comes to women’s denim, we have a policy: less is more. We’re all about wild prints and exciting textures to spice life up once in a while, but a favorite pair of neutral-hued skinny jeans or no-fuss cut-off shorts can make the difference between a last minute outfit and a stellar ensemble. Eugene Is My Middle Name released their spring 2013 lookbook full of gorgeous clean lines and vibrant hues for the upcoming warm weather season, and we’re all over it.

See the full lookbook below.
You can shop the spring collection online at Scoop NYC. A percentage of all the brand’s profits are donated to charities that empower lives globally.

We’ve seen flowers, we’ve seen paisley…heck, we’ve even seen skeletons prancing on printed jeans! So it’s super refreshing when a brand comes out with a unique take on a done-to-death trend (not that we’re tired of it). Big Star USA released a pair of very charming jeans for spring that feature a smattering of colorful birds on white denim. Understated in a cartoon-y way, they’d be a flawless match for a white silk button-down top or a tailored navy blazer.


This style will hit stores in May, so stay tuned.

A spring outfit combo for women that just can’t go wrong? Denim jackets and pretty spring dresses. We dropped the hint in our denim dose this morning, and this time we’ll say it with gusto: pairing something pretty with something a little rock’n'roll, a little industrial, a little bad-ass? That equals a balanced, nicely contrasted look (which translates into stylish intrigue). Kristin Cavallari illustrated this point perfectly when she recently wore a cropped Levi’s jacket over a long white dress. Perfection. Check out a few of our favorite pairings below.
Look 1: Notify Denim Jacket + Thakoon Grey Knit Dress
Look 2: Topshop Moto Sleeveless Denim Jacket + The Ava Lace Dress in Coral
Look 3: Madewell Denim Jacket + Mint Green Strapless Dress
Look 4: Topshop Moto Pink Denim Vest + Moondance Dress In Ivory
Look 5: Current/Elliott Red Denim Jacket + Rare Pastel Stripe Dip Hem Dress
Share your favorite pairings on our facebook wall!

Mint green jeans fever is really catching on—even our least favorite socialite, Kim Kardashian, is wearing it! We quite like this outfit—a change of pace from spike heels and forced-luxury. She was snapped wearing this pair of Black Orchid by Julien Jarmoune Jewel Jegging in Curacao wash with a creme blazer and sandals. Pretty fresh.

If you’re in the market for a men’s denim workshirt to freshen up your spring wardrobe, this is a good pick. The Sidian, Ersatz & Vanes Color Blocked Shirt ($209) features two-tone cotton in a slim fit. The thing we love about denim color blocking is, it trades in the mod look any other fabric would supply in this style for something far more utilitarian. This would look killer with a pair of pale red/pink chinos. It’s available here.
