When wearing long, wide-leg jeans, the goal is to create a strong foundation underneath the extra volume of the denim.

Choose shoes that create vertical detail or height.

One of my favourite choices is a lace-up shoe or sneaker.

The laces create a vertical line that naturally draws the eye upwards, making your feet and ankles appear longer and slimmer.

This helps balance the width of the jeans and stops the fabric from looking heavy or overwhelming.

Make sure you add a feminine handbag when wearing your sneakers with your jeans. 
 

An ankle boot with a heel is another fantastic option.

The heel adds height and visually lengthens your leg line, while the boot gives your wide-leg jeans a polished, intentional finish. 

Any handbag will work when wearing heeled boots with jeans; just make sure the colour doesn't match your boots. 


          

Without a little structure underneath, wide-leg jeans can make your lower half feel bulky.

But with the right shoe, they suddenly ...

Thanks for still being here and hanging out with me!

I know you have an inkling or even a pretty firm idea of which colour type in my Boss System you think suits you. 

And that's why I feel confident that this will resonate with you. 

 Knowing your best colours is only half the story. Learning how to combine them is everything.

That's when your wardrobe stops being a collection of clothes and becomes a tool that helps you communicate who you are before you've even said a word.

Colour isn't just about what suits us. It's also about what it communicates.

Before we've even opened our mouths, people have already formed impressions based on what we're wearing.

Colour is one of the very first things the brain processes, and while everyone experiences and sees colour a little differently, the undertone in any form will influence mood, attention, and first impressions.

That's why I get so excited about colour pairings. They don't just create a beautiful outfit. They create a feeling....

One of my favourite styling formulas is pairing a printed top with suiting

Because it creates the perfect balance between relaxed and refined.

A blazer or tailored trouser naturally brings structure, polish, and sophistication to an outfit.

By adding a print underneath, you soften that structure and inject personality, making the overall look feel approachable rather than corporate.

It's the perfect combination of casual and sophisticated.


          

Prints also act as a visual focal point. They naturally draw the eye upwards towards your face, adding interest and helping the outfit feel intentional without needing lots of accessories.

If you're someone who loves wearing blazers but sometimes feels they look a little too serious, a printed blouse, hoodie or knit is the easiest way to bring warmth and life to your outfit.


          

I also recommend choosing a print that doesn't include a colour that you wear in your shoes most often.

This allows your blazer, trousers, shoes,...

How To Style Crochet

A crochet or lace top is technically a self-print, which means it's already bringing texture, pattern, and interest to your outfit before you've even added anything else.

This is exactly why crochet loves a good print clash. Try styling it with a printed skirt or a pair of printed pants. The crochet acts like a floral pattern, allowing it to happily mingle with other florals, geometrics, and its very favourite partner, stripes.

The result? An outfit with personality. An outfit that gets people asking, "How did you think to put that together?"

One of my favourite Make It Look Easy formulas is to remember that texture behaves like a print. 

A little print clash can take crochet from pretty to unforgettable.
 

Then, to leap from one daring partnership to another, try styling your crochet top with Bermuda shorts and boots.

On paper, it sounds a little odd, but the most stylish outfits come from putting together pieces that don't seem like the...

One of the reasons I love denim so much (apart from being born in denim as a Hair colour type) is that every shade of denim naturally works with every other shade of denim.

That's exactly why I keep all my denim pieces, jeans, jackets, shirts, skirts, and shorts hanging together in one section of my wardrobe. It makes creating outfits incredibly easy.

The secret isn't whether you can wear double denim...

It's how much contrast you create between the two pieces.

If you love making a statement, pair a light denim with a dark denim. The higher contrast creates a bold, confident look that's especially flattering on my Vibrant and Eyes colour types, or women with theatrical style personalities.
 

If your style is softer, more relaxed, or understated, keep your denim pieces closer in colour.

A medium wash jacket with medium wash jeans, or a dark denim jacket with dark jeans, creates a low to medium contrast that feels subtle and easy to wear.

From there, you can control ...

One of my favourite Make It Look Easy formulas is that shorter blazers tend to enjoy the company of skirts and dresses, while longer blazers generally work with all silhouette lines.

Why?

Because a shorter blazer allows you to see more of the skirt, creating a lovely balance of a more streamlined silhouette.

Now, before anyone emails me back, this is Nat's science, not the fashion police's rules. 

If you want to wear a short blazer with jeans, go right ahead. I promise a piano will not fall from the sky and land on your head.
 

These formulas simply make getting dressed easier because they help create proportional balance and harmony without having to think too hard about it.

And as you know, I'm all about making style look easy.


Long Blazers are best with Jeans and Pants.

This way, we concentrate on the long outer frame without focusing on the inner leg finish line. 
 

Short Blazers are best with Skirts and Dresses.
