She teamed a pair of black tapered leg trousers with some very chic black mule heels, adding tortoiseshell shades, hoop earrings and a leather tote bag. But it was her embroidered blouse that really spoke to me. It's got a very Meryl in Mamma Mia! vibe to it, don't you think? It really reminds me of the tops her character wears underneath her iconic dungarees!

If you're searching for stylish tops to wear with jeans, particularly in the hot weather, this blouse has got your name written all over it. It's loose and flowy, with just the right amount of detail to tick the boho trend off your list. In black and white, it will fit seamlessly into your wardrobe, plus the frill collar is a really nice touch.

How to style yours

It sounds so simple, but investing in a top can really freshen up your wardrobe for the new season. woman&home's Fashion Editor Rivkie Baum agrees, telling me: "Thanks to the resurgence of boho style, embroidered tops are a big part of this season's spring/summer fashion trends.

"A white shirt is a timeless capsule wardrobe buy, but the embroidered detail helps to bring this classic piece into 2025. The vertical stitch work on the front of the shirt helps to draw the eye down, creating a lengthened silhouette that is both elegant and flattering."

Pairing the navy two-piece with some brown ballet flats from the celebrity-loved, Quiet Luxury brand, The Row. We couldn't help but think about how comfortable the star looked, and how this dressed-down two-piece was the perfect summer look for those looking for chic but cosy airport outfits. A great option for what to wear on a plane, Julia Roberts' was seen legs up on a chair, laidback in her stylish but unfussy set.

Choosing the right airport outfit can set the entire mood of your holiday, so finding an outfit formula that looks elevated yet keeps you comfortable from departures to arrivals is essential. And if over the years you've tried and tested combinations that have left you uncomfortable or just underwhelmed, we think Julia's athleisure is the inspiration we needed with holiday's on the horizon.

Shop Julia Roberts' Outfit

When it comes to laidback, but put-together looks, an athleisure co-ord is a soft, comfortable alternative to your favourite jeans and jumper, making it a perfect choice for optimal travel comfort. Delivering a sporty feel ensures comfort, while the matching top and bottom ensure that, despite its relaxed nature, it still looks put together, all without compromising on long-haul comfort.

Opting for dark colours or vintage-inspired silhouettes can make your two-piece look elevated, ideal for navigating the terminal, yet comfortable enough for long-haul flights or airport queues.

Another standout feature of this outfit has to be the leather ballet flats, and despite Julia relaxing at her hotel, her footwear choice is still inspiring our plane ensembles. Offering slip-on ease at security, with no laces to undo, and just enough structure to feel like you’re not wearing slippers, ballet flats fall perfectly in line with the fashion shoe trends of 2025, as well as being a practical shoe choice for travelling. For maximum comfort, I would choose a pair with a cushioned sole and a slightly squared-off toe, for practicality and ease.

If, like me, you’ve been searching for elusive airport outfit inspiration – one that combines comfort, practicality, and a dash of style – Julia Roberts' athleisure look is the outfit formula you need. Where possible, opt for breathable fabrics and loose silhouettes for the ultimate airport attire, and simply finish with supple leather flats for an on-trend edge.

If you’ve ever worried that white trainers just aren’t the right pairing for flowing, delicate dresses, then Emilia Fox’s latest look should reassure you. The Silent Witness star recently paid a visit to Giffords Circus to watch the Laguna Bay performance and wore a breezy floral co-ord with chunky trainers.

They had a platform sole that added extra elevation in a much more manageable way than stiletto heels. Although we only got a glimpse of them underneath her maxi skirt in a photo shared on Instagram, I suspect that Emilia was wearing Converse.

The black line detailing running around the front and sides of the shoe is a classic Converse touch. If they were by this brand, they were likely the All Star Lift Hi in white, which has a platform sole and sporty high-rise style.

The outsole on this design is made from vulcanised rubber and the upper is canvas. Chunkier or platform trainers might not sound as easy to style as streamlined, plimsoll-esque ones, though they are just as versatile, especially if you choose a neutral tone like white.

They also feel a bit more contemporary and fashion-forward, whilst essentially still being just white trainers. You can wear them with exactly the same outfits you would pair with sleeker trainers and this includes whimsical, very feminine pieces like Emilia Fox’s co-ord (and many of her other seasonal favourites).

It might look like a dress at first glance but the actor stepped out in a matching set by Pink City Prints. The square-neck blouse and maxi skirt are both hand block-printed and are made from breathable cotton and trimmed with cotton lace.

The pattern is intricate and the neutral base colour means that the pink, coral and red flowers and green leaves stand out with their brightness. If you haven’t discovered the best wedding guest dress of the season for you, then a co-ord like this is a fabulous option.

Emilia wore the top tucked into the tiered skirt to create a smooth silhouette and you would never have known it wasn’t a one-piece. The outfit worked so well with her white chunky trainers, despite them being very different styles.

Part of the reason I think this is so successful is because the contrast between the sporty trainers and florals is noticeable and feels very intentional. This is important when you’re putting together an ensemble like hers.

If you opt for plimsolls, it could almost look like an attempt to match the elegance of the outfit without it being the same style. Chunky trainers embrace the difference instead and they’re a brilliant alternative to sandals.

You can also, of course, get a lot of wear out of them with linen trousers and jeans as well as more flowy pieces. Emilia Fox finished off her look for her time at Giffords Circus with white sunglasses and layered necklaces. It was summer comfort in an outfit and is one that I’d love to see her bring out again before the season is over.

Stepping out in a pair of high-waisted, light blue denims, Mariska added a pair of black rimmed sunglasses and added polish to her ensemble with a classic Chanel bouclé jacket. Completing her outfit with a timeless, tucked-in white tee, I was struck by just how chic and effortless the Law and Order actress looked, and how easy it is to recreate this French fashion brand-approved look.

Bouclé jackets have been everywhere this season, and are a brilliant piece of outerwear to add to a summer capsule wardrobe. The tailored jacket is light and feminine and makes a great switch out for a blazer when you want to feel a little more glam. Opting for all white, Mariska's look was perfect for high summer, and pairing it with a white t-shirt helped to keep the light reflected against her face.

Mariska Hargitay gives light blue jeans added polish

If you've been wondering if jeans can be business casual, I'd usually say yes, without a doubt, but stick to dark indigo and black washes. However, Mariska's outfit certainly challenges that fashion rule.

Giving wide-leg jeans a dressier feel by opting for a tucked-in tee, alongside a tailored jacket, has given a denim style that is usually considered casual a more polished edge.

Completing her look with a neat, white, quilted Chanel bag with black trim and instantly recognisable, Chanel two-tone pumps, this was a simple, but stylish smart casual outfit, that oozed Quiet Luxury, and I've found just the pieces to help recreate the look.

Leaning into the power of jeans and a white tee, this is a summer combo not to be overlooked. While this combo does work at any time of year, the faded wash jeans feel particularly summery and gave a nod to the denim trends of 2025.

The high waist and wide leg delivered a figure-flattering fit, nipping the star in at the waist and balancing out the strong shoulder of the jacket with the wide hemline for an hourglass silhouette.

While no one item in this look stood out, each piece helped to build an ensemble that demonstrated how to dress simply but stylishly to perfection.

Get the Look

As one might expect from a Chanel event, all attendees put their best fashion foot forward for the prestigious event. Dressed head-to-toe in Chanel, Mariska's outfit evoked so many classic hallmarks of the brand, although the high-waisted, wide-legged jeans delivered a refreshing twist to Chanel's timeless bouclé jacket.

Keeping the look simple, Mariska leaned into the Quiet Luxury look that is so popular amongst French women, and it worked to her advantage. While nothing felt overly showy, altogether, the outfit looked expensive, whilst feeling relatable too, a hard line to navigate.

Although the last few months have seen a real push towards the best barrel leg jeans, Mariska returned to a classic wide-leg for this ensemble and while it may not be the trending style, it is a cut always flatters. Balancing proportions, lengthening legs and narrowing waistlines, the high-waisted, wide-leg jean is wardrobe hero.

The shoe trends of 2025 have seen a strong resurgence of bohemian themes and motifs, and the revival of the studded sandal is an extension of the boho chic's return. Khaite's Boden Sandals are the perfect example of how this trend has evolved - less about heavy embellishments and more about thoughtfully considered detailing.

Other high-end fashion houses, including Isabel Marant and Valentino, have also confirmed studs being in favour with metal embellished sandals, wedges, and even leather loafers being spotted amongst their summer collections.

Arriving at the BBC on Monday, Moore wore black studded sandals, paired with soft white wide-leg trousers, a cropped knitted pullover with a polo-style neck, and some oversized brown aviator sunglasses. Confirming that this sandal style certainly deserves a spot in your current warm-weather shoe rotation.

I'm currently on the hunt for the best high street lookalike for Moore's sandals, and Mango's Studded Leather Sandals are a strikingly similar alternative that won't cost you a fortune. Shop below for more options.

What's great about this minimalist outfit is how wearable it is. Soft white trousers in either a breathable linen or a lightweight cotton material paired with some open-toe studded sandals are effortlessly chic. And opting for this embellished shoe style means that you don't need to overthink the rest of your look because they become the focal point of the entire outfit.

If you're looking to invest in one sandal this summer, make it a studded pair. You could opt for a flat sole for laid-back styling to pair with your favourite denim jeans, or for elevated dressing, shop platformed or heeled wedge studded options such as these from Anthropologie.

The monochromatic ensemble is always a winner, and while most would think to do black trousers and a white top, flipping this look on its head gives a refreshing and modern take on what will always be a timeless pairing.

It’s one of my favourite shopping destinations and whether I'm on the hunt for a dress or a shirt, I often find exactly what I’m looking for from the current collection. The covetable pieces all come with chic detailing, modern silhouettes or wow-worthy prints, and the range covers everything from casual daytime basics to fancy occasionwear.

I didn’t think it could get any better, but my love for the brand just grew deeper as I've just discovered they now have a shoe collection, and this new footwear drop is absolutely perfect for the sunny season.

The collection covers a wide range of gorgeous flats which all have a fresh yet timeless feel to them that means they will make a wise investment buy for the warm weather, but will still look great next summer and beyond.

Each pair manages to tick off key spring/summer fashion trends while being brilliantly wearable. The only problem I have is deciding which pair to go for...!

Shop the collection

I like all of the shoes in the range, but if I had to pick a favourite, it would be the cross-strap chunky sandals as I feel like they have a smarter feel that will add a polished footnote to any look while being very comfy to wear and fuss-free to style up. Whichever pair you go for, though, I guarantee you will be wearing them for years to come.

Nobody's Child was already a hero fashion destination, and now that there are shoes on offer, I have even more of a reason to visit the site. Be quick to get your hands (or feet!) on some of these sandals, though, as I predict this collection will be a total sell-out.

The actress was spotted watching a tennis match at the French Open in Paris last week, wearing a timeless white shirt and pink A-line skirt combination, and she finished it with a retro-style straw hat and oversized shades. It’s a total fashion fail-safe formula and has such a pretty feel for a sunny day – I adore everything about it.

The celebrity styled her button-down top and skirt brilliantly, and as well as topping it off with her Christian Dior headgear, she rolled up her sleeves and popped up her collar to add a little extra oomph. The look had a lovely vintage vibe to it, but manages to feel fresh and fun, and Natalie proves that sometimes wearing simple separates like these together can make just as much of a statement as something much more bold and fussy.

I will definitely be recreating her look for a summer party or a sunny brunch date, and I have rounded up some similar pieces below that will do the job nicely.

A bold pink skirt like Natalie’s has plenty of styling opportunities and can work for a whole host of daytime or evening occasions. Wear yours with crisp white separates like the celebrity, or add a silver sequin vest and heels for something a little more special.

You can give your colour pop piece a much more casual spin with a light grey knit and your best white trainers, too.

A few years and two children later, I avoid any kind of heel at all costs. I love how they look, but as a busy mum, I feel like I need to be able to move fast, and I prefer shoes that I can wear all day with zero complaints or discomfort. Even on a rare night out, I will opt for shiny loafers or my leopard print ballet flats.

I’m always in flat shoes, and more often than not, I will finish an outfit with my most comfortable trainers before heading out the door. In all honesty, though, sometimes when I'm wearing a floaty sundress or a slip skirt, I do miss the extra height that heels gave me, so when I spotted Lucy Liu’s platform sneakers, I wanted them immediately.

Earlier this month, the star stepped out in a pair of Converse Run Star Hike Ox Platform Trainers, which are a fresh white pair of lace-ups with minimal black details and a very chunky platform sole for some extra lift. You're probably familiar with Converse low-top trainers, but these are another level of luxury.

The actress wore a floral mini dress with a bright red shoulder bag, and her elevated shoe added a sporty footnote that really worked. The chunkier shoe is the perfect blend of comfort and height, and I for one, will be investing in a pair for summer.

When it comes to styling your jumbo-soled trainers, simply wear them as you would any of your other sneakers. The extra height lends itself well to longer length dresses and skirts, but they will work brilliantly with cropped denim or a pair of striped trousers.

The sporty style will give you some lift and lengthen the appearance of your legs, but they will support your feet better than classic heels to keep you comfy on even the busiest of days.

Neutrals, dainty floral patterns and crisp, fresh white shades are musts in any summer capsule wardrobe if you want to create a versatile and ultra wearable collection of clothes to see you through the season. But while we love a good basic, Jennifer Aniston reminded us a few statement pieces are equally as important - and they can take our more simple staples to a whole new level.

Showing us exactly how to style up our most simple summer sandals in a look from back in 2013, Jen paired a statement tie-dye mini dress with a sturdy denim jacket and pair of flat, strappy sandals. A decade on, her look is just as effortless and cool as when she first stepped out in it, with the timeless and classic staples of a trusty denim jacket (featuring prominently in our 2025 denim trends round-up) and comfy strappy sandals never going out of style.

Jen's lowkey look is one woman&home's Digital Fashion Writer, Molly Smith, appreciates: "I love this outfit; it's giving off that well-loved boho aesthetic, that looks effortlessly cool on almost anyone. Plus the flowy silhouette of the dress with the fitted denim jacket is incredibly flattering. Layering a short jacket over a loose dress is a styling hack that looks great on a variety of body types too, perfect for the warmer weather."

Channel Jennifer's Look

No matter which colour suits you best, Jen's outfit is one that has us keen to try out all-over blue tones. Especially with the tie-dye bringing some variation to the bold and bright hue, it feels much more laid-back and chilled than some of the brighter colours we see with monochrome outfits and other colour trends, especially with the denim bringing in added texture to the outfit.

Keeping things relaxed with the jacket sleeves rolled down and buttons left open, Jen slipped into a pair of utterly timeless brown leather strappy sandals. Sleek and simple, they are a style that wouldn't seem out of place on holiday nor on a hot day in a city, making them a versatile addition to any wardrobe.

To accessorise the free-flowing, tiered mini, Jen finished her outfit off with a pair of basic black aviator style sunglasses and a long silver chain necklace added even more wearability to Jen's outfit of choice - making it so easy to take inspiration from.

Everywhere I’ve looked recently, I've found shirts, trousers, and dresses covered with cheerful fruit, florals and beachy prints that look like a snapshot from an exotic getaway and have a playful feel to them that I love. The sketched designs are perfect for wearing while you are away, but also for adding a little vacay-vibe to your wardrobe if you haven’t got any trips in the diary.

The look is bold and bright, but very wearable, and it’s a spring/summer trend that I will definitely be investing in for the coming weeks. I have fallen particularly hard for the Nobody’s Child Cassidy dress, which is covered in an illustrated stamp-style print and comes complete with ruffles and a tiered skirt detail. It’s probably my favourite postcard piece so far, but there are so many to choose from. I have rounded up some of the best below.

Wish you were here! Shop the postcard print trend

While the postcard prints are bright and busy, they can be worn and styled in the same way as your favourite animal print separates or floral pieces. I will team a patterned shirt with jeans or a swishy skirt, and a dress will look great all by itself with just a pair of wedges and a straw bag.

Postcard prints are bursting with summer joy, and I promise that whichever piece you go for, it’ll transport you into holiday mode every time you wear it.

If you're lucky enough to have a ticket to SW19, you're probably wondering what to wear to Wimbledon. One of the big names who consistently aces it with her wardrobe is Sienna Miller, and I’m already excited to see if she'll be there this year. The star always looks fabulous, and the stunning polka dot shirt and skirt ensemble she opted for in summer 2024 was up there with her best.

Sienna wore a matching white cropped blouse and swishy skirt by Prada, and each piece was covered with mini brown spots. The actress finished it with a simple white bag and strappy heels, and it was the perfect look for a day at Centre Court.

I imagine that there will be plenty of dotty dresses and skirts at the sporting event this year (which starts on 30th June, and runs until 13th July), as polka dots are a huge spring/summer fashion trend. I have rounded up some winning designer copycats below to recreate Sienna's look, whatever your budget.

When it comes to trying this patterned trend, you have plenty of options. Wear a matching set like Sienna, simply pair up a spotted blouse with your best barrel leg jeans, or add a colour pop T-shirt to a dotted skirt and sandal combination.

Spots are an evergreen print that will work seamlessly from season to season and year to year, so find your piece now and you’ll love it forever.

I adored her silver embellished dress at the Met Gala 2025, and last month she wore this all-white outfit, complete with an oversized hat that was absolutely gorgeous. But I’m going to make a bold statement and declare that her latest outfit is probably her most fabulous so far.

Last week while out in New York, the 57-year-old star wore the Marni Poplin Mermaid Shirt Dress in white, which was covered in a bold red rose print. She styled it with a pair of Gianvito Rossi court shoes, oversized sunglasses and a white chiffon scarf wrapped around her head that added a touch of old school Hollywood glamour. It’s a look that has a very strong Marilyn Monroe vibe to it and manages to feel very elegant while still being full of fun.

This petal-powered combination is perfect if you're wondering what to wear to Royal Ascot, or for a cocktail party, and I have tracked down some similar red and white patterned pieces below to recreate the star's statement outfit.

I love that Pamela used colour pop shoes to finish her outfit, but a timeless pair of gold strappy sandals or a black mule would look just as stylish.

When it comes to bags and jewellery, keep your accessories simple to let your dress take centre stage - a small clutch or mini top-handle bag in a plain neutral tone will work perfectly with a bold floral design like this.

While we'd love a summer filled with balmy weather, history suggests that isn't what we get, so having a great layering piece to solve what to wear over a dress, even in the warmer months, is a good idea. A leather or denim jacket is a strong choice, as they're just the right weight for spring and mild summer temperatures.

Selecting a trending bomber jacket, elevated by the leather fabric, Ricki Lake's pared-back but thoughtful outfit is such an easy one to recreate; in fact, you probably have lots of the items already in your summer capsule wardrobe.

Ricki Lake knows that even in summer, an all-black look is timeless

If you're ever having a sartorial meltdown, an all-black ensemble is one you can rely on. Everything will go, and this colourway always appears polished.

Opting for a deep neckline, Ricki Lake ensured that there was still plenty of light around her face, making this a flattering look. She added a pop of colour and further brightness with a pair of 3D floral earrings, offering a big nod to the jewellery trends of 2025.

The cropped leather bomber jacket, with subtle ribbed panels at the hem, helped to draw the eye in at her smallest part, creating a narrowed waistline, for a flattering, hourglass silhouette, balancing the star's proportions.

Finishing her look with a statement shoe, a great choice when going for a solid colour outfit, Ricki Lake selected the now sold-out Shoreditch High Platform from British brand Kurt Geiger. Decorated in embossed colourful stars, the platform shoes lengthened the star's silhouette, and ensured her dress hemline avoided sweeping the floor.

An easy look to recreate for the months ahead, a maxi dress is always a key part of a summer wardrobe. Wearable at home, to work or on holiday, this timeless design can be dressed up or down, making it a brilliant investment.

In a sea of celebrity looks, Ricki Lake's is not the boldest, but it is one we want in our arsenal, because sometimes simplicity and understated style is all you need.

Turning to a block colour palette, Ricki has taken out the hard work of matching up several hues, relying on a timeless black dress and an ever-cool leather jacket to ensure she looks polished.

Adding bold touches to finish off her outfit, a pair of statement shoes and trending earrings help to bring her ensemble up-to-date. This is a brilliant style-takeaway to help you refresh classic pieces. Remember, you don't need to re-do your wardrobe every season, with all the trending styles, but a few well-thought-out and directional accessories can make staple items look and feel more timely.

Posting on Instagram last summer, Reese captioned the snap: "The perfect summer dress doesn’t exi— oh wait, I found it!'" And her fans agree. "You look gorgeous," wrote one. "That dress looks good on you!!" said another.

woman&home's Fashion Ecommerce Editor Caroline Parr explains why this is a look you'll come to rely on when the temperatures rise: "Find the perfect summer dress and you're sorted for the next few months. A roomy tote bag will hold all your essentials, and they're a huge (pardon the pun!) trend right now - look to Katie Holmes and Alexa Chung for more inspiration if you need it."

Shop Reese's summer style

In our minds, this outfit is the perfect summer look. The bold pattern on her dress is a great way to make a statement in the summer months, when layering and adding texture to an outfit is impossible thanks to the heat. But with stunning swirls and flower motifs, plus some striking blue stitching, you get a breezy statement piece that also makes for an ideal holiday style thanks to the Mediterranean feel of the colourway, too.

While the dress is super classic and timeless, Reese gave it a modern edge by adding a boxy beach bag to the look. Reese tagged the clothes as being from Draper James X Kohl's, which is her California lifestyle brand and epitomises the actor's laid-back style.

Reese is wearing the Women's Draper James Embroidered Midi Dress, available in US department store Kohl's, which sadly doesn't ship to the UK. But we've found some great alternatives if you want to mimic Reese's style. Crafted from floaty fabrics that will keep you cool, with elegant and flattering fits, any of these would make a great addition to your summer capsule wardrobe.

The star recently shared a selection of pictures on Instagram showcasing a wide range of her looks, captioning it "When you find a brand that’s just right and you can’t stop wearing it #appreciationpost"

They covered everything from a crisp off-white suit to a boldly striped knit. I ooh-ed and ahh-ed over each piece, so I was delighted to discover that she had tagged her clothing, and it turns out that every item that Emma was wearing was from ME+EM.

ME+EM is a British clothing brand that is well-loved by celebrities, with a number of big-name fans including Katie Holmes and Trinny Woodall. Emma’s recent looks showed exactly why it's so popular, and just how much choice the collection offers. There’s a piece to suit every summer capsule wardrobe, and you can get your hands on the very same hero buys below.

I love all of Emma's looks, but the striped jumper is probably up there as one of my favourites. It'll work brilliantly as an easy extra layer on a chilly morning or for when the Great British weather lets us down, and then once Autumn comes around, you can rewear it again and again. Team it with a satin slip skirt or tailored trousers and you'll be all set.

The 62-year-old actress shared a photo of herself wearing a black sporty bomber jacket with matching black jeans, finishing her laid-back ensemble with a pair of what look like Classic Mini UGG boots. The outfit was a low-key yet chic combination, and her snuggly soft footwear was the perfect footnote. The sheepskin shoe style always looks great, and will make a handy pair to have in your summer capsule wardrobe for those inevitable chillier days when the weather lets you down.

The key to making UGGs work for the coming months is to opt for the shorter ankle-high pairs like Demi’s as they won’t feel overly hot on your feet and will sit neatly with your cropped denim or floaty sundresses. Whether you're a long-time fan of the fuzzy-lined boot or looking to invest in a new pair, the star’s look is great inspiration for how to wear them right now.

If you’re unsure about what brand of sheepskin shoe to invest in, our guide to UGG vs Emu boots might help with your decision. As a brand, UGG tends to reign supreme with the fashion set, but there are plenty of options available to suit any budget and personal style.

The key to keeping your sheepskin boots looking chic is to team them with smarter clothing or with separates that have plenty of structure and definition. Wide-leg trousers or a loose maxi dress may look a little cumbersome and unflattering when sitting over fluffy boots, so take note from Demi and opt for skinny denim or tailored bottoms.

With chunky leather straps running across the foot and a supportive criss-cross strap hugging the ankle, what makes the style of sandal so trendy in 2025 is the toe strap detail, which plays into a minimal, quiet luxury look.

woman&home's Fashion Ecommerce Editor Caroline Parr said, "I don't know about you, but in the summer months, I want the ease of a slip-in sandal rather than trainers.

"VB's toe loop leather style is a more elevated take on the classic flip-flop, and as she's proving here, they look so chic with blue jeans and a crisp white shirt. The definition of smart casual," she added.

With a low rise waist and relaxed fit, the jeans perfectly blended everyday casual with a more elevated style. The 3/4 length of her shirt sleeves and the slightly oversized fit of the blouse worked to create an ideal day-to-day outfit that would also work in any summer outfit ideas for work.

The flat sandal style was an unexpected choice for Victoria, who rarely ditches her heels. When she does, she is a fan of more sporty styles like adidas's best white trainers; the adidas Women's Grand Td Lifestyle Court Casual Shoes.

But these Celine sandals clearly caught her eye, as she wore them multiple times across the 2010s and even invested in the same style in other colourways - which is always a clever thing to do when you've found a wardrobe staple that you love and know you'll get a lot of wear out of.

Wearing the sandals again in 2018, she gave us an outfit formula we'll be following all summer when she slipped into the white colourway of the Celine sandals and created a monochrome outfit by styling them with tailored white maxi skirt. And, like with her 2016 look, a crisp white shirt completed the sleek, summer-ready outfit.

As well as styling the black sandals with jeans, she's showed off their versatility over the years by also wearing them with a pair of roomy, wide leg suit trousers.

Keeping to a simple colour palette, she styled her black trousers with a crisp white shirt, and carried a black leather shoulder bag to finish off the look and tie in with the black leather of her sandals.

Also, for some white jeans outfit inspiration, she's previously worn the Celine sandals with a pair of white, high waisted jeans and a tailored black shirt.

A truly versatile style staple, we're racing to invest in a pair for ourselves!

The epitome of Quiet Luxury, the understated ensemble was expertly executed. Dressed head-to-toe in Chanel, the star accented her look with subtle black and gold accessories that included a classic quilted bag with chain strap, an elegant woven and gold chain buckle belt and a coordinating watch for completeness.

The timeless outfit echoed other guests' ensembles, several of whom opted for the latest 2025 denim trends for the occasion. And while barrel leg jeans have been a key look throughout spring, they can be overwhelming when it comes to the sheer volume of fabric from thigh to ankle, while high-waisted flares deliver a much more curve-loving finish.

Olivia Munn revives the flare: the jean style that flatters every shape

When it comes to summer outfit ideas, very little beats the classics and light blue jeans and a white shirt certainly fall into this category. The wide hem of the jeans, coupled with the tucked-in top and cinching belt helps to create a flattering hourglass silhouette

Although the best barrel legs jeans have been the style choice for the past few months, denim trends come and go, and Chanel's penchant for a flared jean is about to put this nostalgic shape back on the fashion map.

Opting for a high-waisted style will help to create a narrowed waistline. This, coupled with the width at the bottom of the hem, creates a well-balanced hourglass throughout.

When styling flared jeans, always keep your top half neat and fitted; tucking in at the waist helps to streamline your frame and ensure your form isn't overwhelmed.

While Chanel's iteration of this trend delivers an exaggerated hem, there are plenty of smaller flares on the market to help ease you into this 70s silhouette.

Denim trends come and go, that's why if you find a great pair of jeans, don't get rid of them if a silhouette falls out of favour, as they will come back to the fore at some point.

The best part of flared jeans? This figure-flattering shape is easy to adapt to your body type, with a range of flares available, from super-sized to gentle kick-flares to ease you in.

When it comes to how to style flared jeans, take notes from Olivia Munn and keep your look simple. The hem shape is already quite the statement, so there is no need to go overboard. Keep your top half tailored and proportionate to balance out the wider leg. Tuck in tops, or go for just-hitting-the-waistline styles to help narrow your middle, and try a short, but strong-shouldered blazer for added polish. The slightly wider shoulder will reflect the hem, giving you an even more emphasised hourglass.

If you're looking to execute a Quiet Luxury look, remember it's all in the subtle details. A white shirt and denim jeans is the ideal combo for this type of outfit. It says that you don't need to go over the top to have confidence in your style. Finish a laidback but put-together ensemble such as this with a great handbag and classic jewellery for an unbeatable look.

This is why Ranvir Singh’s strawberry-patterned dress caught my eye so much when she wore it to the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition Preview Party on 11th June. A design like this is an easy way to bring a pop of colour in an understated way.

I was disappointed to discover that her exact M&S X Ghost dress isn’t available anymore, though I will still be taking a lot of inspiration from it for my seasonal looks. It has a vintage-esque style, with a neat collared neckline and puffed short sleeves.

The silhouette is elegant and modest, making it perfect for wearing to a christening or a garden party where you want to feel dressed up but still be comfortable. Ranvir’s dress is midi-length and although the bodice is more fitted, the skirt is flowing and loose.

The A-line silhouette is timeless and feels more low-key than a fit-and-flare with its voluminous skirt. Because of this, the presenter could easily have worn a pair of her best white trainers and added a raffia bag to make it seem smart-casual instead.

When you’re wearing patterned pieces the design can sometimes lend itself to being styled formally or for the daytime, but Ranvir’s strawberry-print dress works for both. It’s very delicate and small, meaning that it brings just a hint of colour.

The red of the strawberries is complemented by the green leaves and pale blue flowers. Each hue stands out from the white base fabric without taking over.

Even if fruit prints aren’t for you, Ranvir Singh’s ensemble shows how much of a difference having a small amount of colour can make to a simple white dress. It’s not too out-there and bright polka dots or tiny flowers can achieve a similar effect to this strawberry pattern.

To make it subtler still, Ranvir accessorised with plain white slingback heels. This time of year, many of us go for flats or espadrilles like the Princess of Wales’s wedges as they are easier to walk on grass in than stilettos.

The presenter didn’t need to worry about this for the exhibition, though she still went comfy with a pair of kitten heels. They had a covered, pointed toe with a mesh upper.

Ranvir completed her outfit for the occasion with an array of different bracelets. On her right wrist there was a stack of silver ones and she wore a single gold one on her left wrist.

When she’s working on Lorraine and Good Morning Britain, she tends to stick to either fully bright pieces or entirely neutral looks. This kind of whimsical patterned dress isn’t something we often see Ranvir reaching for, but I’m really glad she did.

The human rights lawyer has large collection, featuring some of the best jumpsuits you can buy, which range from neutral colours to more striking tones like burgundy.

But, going through the fashion archives, I've found my favourite in this navy all-in-one that she wore back in 2019. I should know, I'm a fashion editor and have been following Amal's style for years.

Delivering the perfect party outfit inspiration with this look, Amal solidified the one shoulder shape as a go-to for a super flattering look that feels timeless and classic, while also giving off a unique and contemporary flair. The cropped wide leg trouser was a stroke of genius, with the shorter hem creating a modern style too. Plus, the deep blue navy hue is softer than classic black, while still being rich and full of depth - oh and it's got pockets!

Amal wore this jumpsuit, which was designed by one of her favourite designers, Stella McCartney, for a charity gala in Scotland. And it still ticks all the boxes for an on-trend outfit today.

Get Amal's look for less

Amal's closet is a haven of timeless and classic pieces, though she's often a fan of updating more understated styles with bright colours, statement shoes and fun accessories. Here, though, she makes a good case for less being more as this pared-back outfit is totally timeless. The structured finish of the satin fabric looks incredibly luxurious and, by matching the shade of navy blue and carrying it through to her choice of shoes, she created an ultra-glamorous outfit.

Of course, though, she couldn't totally ditch her fun accessories and styled the jumpsuit with a punchy leopard print box clutch bag, which we adore with its bold pattern.

How to accessorize

The beauty of finding a jumpsuit you really love is that it takes out all the stress of having to work out if that top works with those trousers. Be prepared to pay a bit more than you might for, say, a skirt, since this is an entire outfit in one. Make the most of the asymmetric neckline by wearing your hair up and adding some earrings.

She was pictured looking incredibly chic on the streets of Paris, wearing a pair of slim-fit flare jeans in deep indigo blue, paired with a striking tomato red top, complete with a collar and flattering little sleeves. Add in one of the best designer bags, an Hermes Kelly, some oversized Aviator sunglasses, and - we can only assume - a pair of sky-high platforms, and it's a flawless look on the soon-to-be Lady Victoria.

The jeans are, of course, from her very own collection, and I love the patch pockets and red VB monogram embroidery. If you're going to spend £390 on a pair of jeans, you want the world to know who they're by, right?

The colour pop top really packs a punch in this otherwise minimalist outfit, and it's the perfect lightweight knit for this time of year. This is a simple but very sophisticated look that's easy to recreate, so check out my nine ways to work into your own wardrobe. Then wait for the compliments!

Victoria has long been a fan of this flare shape - slim to the knee, and not overly voluminous, but just enough flare to cover your shoes and make your legs look endless.

She's pictured below wearing similar styles in 2021 in Paris (left), and two pairs whilst on another trip to Paris back in May 2013.

If Victoria has been wearing this denim silhouette for more than a decade, it's a pretty good guarantee it's going to stick around, so it's worth investing in.

The outing marked Princess Catherine's return to royal duties, following a short break to spend quality time with Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis during their half-term holiday.

Kate kept her outfit smart and chic, with a crisp blue suit designed by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen. While we'll never tire of an insight into Catherine's dress collection, we love how she continues to embrace sleek, feminine tailoring and women's trouser suits.

Relying on simple wardrobe staples to style her designer two-piece, Her Royal Highness proved, once again, that she's one to look to for inspiration on blazer styling. She layered the single-breasted piece over a fresh white T-shirt with a dipped round neckline,

Tucking the white upper into her high-rise waistband, Kate reminded us just how perfect a classic black leather belt with a chunky gold buckle can look with a pair of elegant trousers.

Rivkie Baum, Digital Fashion Editor for woman&home, is always pleased to see Catherine embracing streamlined tailoring in pieces made by iconic British labels, hailing her most recent look "polished to perfection".

"When it comes to supporting British brands, we can always rely on Kate Middleton to showcase some of the best. This gorgeous navy trouser suit from designer brand, Alexander McQueen, fits to perfection and the deep blue hue makes a polished but lighter change from classic black," Rivkie says.

Shop Chunky Chain Necklaces

"The pared-back look is ideal for a formal occasion and pairing with other neutrals helps to keep this look smart. The addition of a chunky, chained gold necklace gives this outfit a modern finish."

Kate's jewellery of choice is always one of the first things we look at when she appears in public. Her collection is unmatched and the definition of high-low, with priceless Royal Family heirlooms, designer pieces, and some very affordable earrings in the mix.

This time, Princess Catherine strayed from her usual taste in dainty necklaces with delicate chains and subtle pendants, wearing her chunky chain link 4kt gold-plated necklace by Laura Lombardi.

It's one she has worn publicly just a handful of times - but we think it was the perfect choice alongside her slick blue blazer and trousers combination.

With summer events filling up the calendar – holidays, garden parties, and evening dinners – I've found myself bookmarking ways to style jeans with a blazer that feel sophisticated and considered but not overdone.

Worn to a screening of Landman in LA, Moore's outfit features a sharply tailored Schiaparelli white jacket styled with exposed-fly jeans, gold pointed heels, and an avant-garde yet on-brand face bag from the Italian fashion house.

The combination of bright white tailoring with mid-wash straight leg denim jeans and subtle gold details, such as the button-fly front and gold slingback heels, feels high-end, yet this outfit is incredibly easy to recreate with a few thoughtful styling details.

Moore finished the outfit with large brown aviator sunglasses, an eyewear style that taps into the sunglasses trends for 2025. To finish, Demi chose chunky rings, sculptural hoop earrings, styling details that take the tailored blazer and jeans combination from laid-back cool to smart casual parties and evenings out. Her pointed gold slingback heels also echoed the blazer's standout detailing – a bold front lock, a nod to Schiaparelli's signature surrealist history.

She joined husband George Clooney at the Tony Awards in New York over the weekend, wearing a white off-shoulder dress by Tamara Ralph that was dripping in draped pearls. The sleeve detailing is particularly dreamy, and when paired with some white Roger Vivier heels and this Mother of Pearl bag by Jimmy Choo, Amal looked even more glowing than usual. And that's saying something!

When it was shown on the runway, this Spring 2025 Couture collection gown had a dramatic ivory silk train to it, so I love that Amal pared things back a bit. If a dress completely covered in pearls can be called pared-back?

Red carpet events might not be part of our everyday life, but there is inspiration to be found in Amal's old-school Hollywood glamour. There are plenty of pearl-embellished picks out there, starting with this knitted midi dress from French clothing brand Sandro.

Shop the look

We don't see Amal out and about as often as we'd like to, but this super glamorous look makes up for it. She decided on a theme and really committed to it, and it paid off. I'm a big fan of her style, and I'd say this has to be one of her all-time best outfits.

It's such a refreshingly modern take on classic pearls, and woman&home's Fashion Writer Molly Smith agrees. She told me: "White pearls on dresses, skirts and tailoring are making a quiet comeback.

"They add a thoughtful layer of texture that feels vintage and feminine. It's a detail that can transform a garment from laid-back to occasion-ready in an instant, and I love to see red-carpet looks such as Amal's bringing this design detail into the spotlight."

And while we'd much prefer to be slipping into our summer wardrobe favourites, Holly Willoughby just gave us some rainy June day style inspiration that makes us think the showers sticking around a little longer might be worth it.

Taking to Instagram, Holly shared a sweet snap as she ventured out on a dog walk with her Golden Retriever, Bailey. Posing for a fresh-faced selfie, the TV presenting icon showed off her combination of a lightweight rain jacket, chunky boots, and a chic wide-brimmed hat.

For Rivkie Baum, Digital Fashion Editor at woman&home, the blend of a timeless Barbour jacket like Holly's with her other outdoorsy staples is a look that'll simply never go out of style. Even during the warmer months, it's a look that's great to have on hand for when a rainy day strikes.

"Like all of us, Holly is doing her best to cope with the changeable weather right now, and her Barbour jacket is the perfect choice for sudden showers. A much-loved British clothing brand, this heritage label makes some of my stylish outdoor pieces and the best Barbour jackets have a water repellent coating to keep you dry, whilst staying fashionable," Rivkie says.

"Tapping into this summer's utility trend, a Barbour jacket is one to buy now and wear for a lifetime, as you can easily rewax your Barbour jacket to increase its longevity too."

Penning a short caption, Holly joked about the typically unpredictable British weather, listing her "raincoat", "hat", and "wellies" alongside three green tick emojis, adding, "Must must be June."

A trusty rain jacket and a pair of wellies aren't the only rainy summer must-haves to ensure your wardrobe is equipped with. A pair of comfy hiking sandals is ideal if you're a regular walker, and we've tested some great ones.

And we've been keeping our springtime trench coats in regular rotation so far this June, styling them with straight leg jeans or comfy trousers for the balmy yet breezy weather.

There are times when I want to create more of a smart-casual outfit, though, and Emilia Fox has just demonstrated why you should reach for a T-shirt to help with this. The Silent Witness star wore a fabulous rose-pink co-ord to CrimeCon UK London, where she presented a Lifetime Achievement Award to Professor David Wilson.

The pair teamed up for In The Footsteps of Killers, which airs on Channel 4, and I’ve also seen them on the BBC’s 2019 documentary, Jack the Ripper - The Case Reopened. Her outfit for the London event was bright and summery, and I love the way she made her suit more relaxed by wearing it with a graphic T-shirt.

Recreate Emilia's Outfit

The T-shirt looks to be from one of the best British clothing brands (and one which Emilia often gravitates towards), Wyse London. Unfortunately, it’s old season, but graphic T-shirts will never go out of fashion and so you can always find an array of them with different prints.

Emilia’s top had ‘Amore’ written on it, as well as four horizontal stripes across the white background. The emerald green, pastel blue and sunny yellow were striking and the pink stripe perfectly matched her tailored pieces.

This helped to bring the whole outfit together and if you want to wear a blazer and trousers with a graphic or printed T-shirt I would recommend picking a design that has either the same colour or a complementary one in it. Alternatively, just go for a plain white, grey or black T-shirt and you know that it’ll work with any suit.

Either way, the casualness of a T-shirt works so well with the structure of tailored co-ords and makes the overall outfit cooler and fashion-forward. A graphic T-shirt is more of a contrast and accentuates the contemporary feel and choosing a vibrant suit colour like hers instantly makes it less corporate and more fun too.

The Silent Witness star’s suit featured a single-breasted pink blazer with a notched lapel collar and straight leg trousers. She left the jacket unbuttoned to add to the off-duty theme and this also meant more of her T-shirt was visible.

The trousers were cropped which also made them feel less business-like and this length showed off her powder blue court heels. If I were putting together an outfit like hers, I would probably swap these for my white trainers which are comfortable for wearing all day long.

As Emilia was at an event and presenting David Wilson with an award, it makes sense that she went dressier with her shoes. She appeared on stage with him during CrimeCon and posted afterwards about the occasion, explaining that she’d also learnt a lot about Inside Justice UK - a charity dedicated to investigating miscarriages of justice.

Emilia Fox is "already looking forward" to the next CrimeCon and I’m looking forward to seeing her and David in season 3 of In The Footsteps of Killers which landed on 10th June, as well as hoping for another sighting of this chic outfit.

The blazer kept the look on the formal side of smart casual outfit ideas, even balancing out the frayed hemline, which can sometimes look a little too laidback. Adding a directional edge to the whole look, Julianne Moore accessorised with shoes, sunglasses and a bag all by Italian designer brand, Bottega Veneta, little wonder, as Moore's recent campaign for the label has just dropped.

Answering the much-asked question, can jeans be business casual, Julianne manages to walk the fine line between a relaxed ensemble and a polished finish. By sticking to capsule wardrobe heroes, she created a timeless look, that she can still turn to in years to come, and feel just as put together.

Ankle-cropped denim is the summer trend our jean collection has been waiting for

We love an outfit formula that always works, and this Julianne Moore outfit is the perfect example. Opting for a straight leg jean that finishes at the ankle, is ideal for the summer months and great for showing off those new season shoe buys. The frayed hem adds a little extra fashionability, while the light wash hue is something we're seeing increasingly sported by celebrities, flagging the return of this major '90s trend.

Pairing the slim leg and ankle finish jeans with an oversized blazer ensures the look remains balanced throughout, making everything work harmoniously together. By sticking to a timeless palette, Moore ensures her whole look delivers a Quiet Luxury feel.

With a new Bottega Veneta campaign just out, it is no surprise that Julianne Moore opted for this Italian fashion house for her accessories. The statement woven bag, with coordinating shoes, once again delivered an expensive look and feel without being flashy. Tapping into the sunglasses trends of 2025, she opted for a cat-eye frame, which is as timeless as it is trending.

Get the look

Sometimes, keeping things simple is all you need for a great outfit. While we love incorporating the latest trends into our outfit rotation, knowing you have a wardrobe with great building blocks can make getting dressed a breeze.

A wear-all-year, whatever-the-weather ensemble, jeans and a t-shirt, finished with a blazer is the fallback outfit formula that fashion-lovers turn to time and again to feel both comfortable and put together.

Blue jeans, a white tee and a classic blazer will never go out of style, and while your jean choice will largely revolve around the best jeans for your body type, we find an ankle crop in a straight or kick flare shape is universally flattering, and always chic.

When recreating this look, keep your accessories as polished as the rest of your look, opting for classic shapes and neutral colours for the luxe Quiet Luxury feel that's favoured by A-listers.

Butter yellow in particular has been hugely on-trend this season and vivid yellows are fun, so it was great to see Kate Garraway styling this bold tone in a way I can easily recreate. The Good Morning Britain host recently wore a shocking pink dress with a pair of citrus-yellow court heels.

The presenter shared a glimpse of this look in a post on Instagram with her brilliant stylist Debbie Harper, who revealed that the shoes were from Kate’s wardrobe. These would be perfect to wear to the races, as well as to a wedding, or just when you want to make a statement on date night.

Shop Yellow Shoes For Summer

Shop Bright Pink Dresses Like Kate's

Kate Garraway regularly wears court heels for work and the contrast between the timeless design and the vivid yellow colour of this pair made them so eye-catching. If you’re going to invest in bright shoes, I’d recommend taking a similar approach.

The more classic you go design-wise, the more flamboyant you can get with the shade as the style will help to balance it out and make sure it’s not overwhelming. Kate’s heels were a true, sunshine yellow and screamed summer to me.

Her choice of footwear was a clever way to add yellow into her ensemble without resorting to a full-on yellow outfit. Everywhere on the high street and online I’ve been seeing yellow dresses, cardigans and shirts, but shoes make up only a small part of your look.

This means that yellow doesn’t have to be the focus of an outfit, yet you can enjoy the joyfulness of this popular colour. If you pair yellow sandals or heels with a white dress or a neutral T-shirt and linen trousers, the shoes suddenly become a lot more understated.

Alternatively, you can use them to accessorise brighter outfits too, delivering a colour-clash effect. This is what Kate Garraway did, as her Hansine silk dress was magenta.

If you love pink, then this would be one of the best wedding guest dresses for you, thanks to its formal, sophisticated silhouette. The brand describes it as being an "ode to vintage elegance" and it has billowing sleeves and ruching at the neck and cuffs.

The colour makes a statement and although you might not have imagined it complementing citrus-yellow, it really did. Both colours were the same level of boldness, and this is a combination often seen with flowers which made it feel more harmonious.

Kate’s dress and court shoes were just as striking together as the Boden floral dress she wore back in February. This also features pops of pink and yellow and it seems that her love for wearing vibrant colours isn’t going anywhere.

Rivalling any of the best wedding guest dresses, she stepped out in the Silk Wide Leg Jumpsuit from ME+EM (which is still available to buy) for the 2024 Celebrity Golf Classic tournament. The striking magenta jumpsuit still takes the ticket as one of the best jumpsuits we've seen her in and was the epitome of summer occasion dressing. Ideal for formal events, or for adding a bright pop of colour to your holiday wardrobe, it proves that even the most vivid hues can be beautifully sophisticated.

Sure, experimenting with colour in your wardrobe can be daunting, but the stunning magenta shade of Zara's jumpsuit has us re-evaluating that fear.

Shop Zara's style

Shop matching accessories

The luxurious and quiet luxury look of muted neutrals and timeless white dresses will always have their place in formal wear, but Zara proves that stepping out of your comfort zone and going bright and bold with your outfit choices can really pay off.

This purple-toned pink is a really flattering colour on her, with it complementing her skin tone and sleek blonde bob perfectly - we're sold on magenta.

Aside from the summery palette, the cut and silhouette of this jumpsuit are what really stand out. Loose and flowing at the legs with unique details above the waist, the eye is instantly drawn upwards to the standout neckline and cutout detail. Cutouts can be tricky to get right, especially in formal wear, but this particular take on the trend is a brilliant example of how to incorporate them into your wardrobe tastefully.

With a high neckline, feminine ruffled shoulder detailing, and wide pleated trousers that are ideal for staying cool in the warmer months, both comfort and sophistication are covered.

Ready to take the plunge with a similarly statement hue but wondering what colour suits me? This is a shade that will work for every skin tone, so there is really no going wrong.

After a last-minute, frantic search for a holiday-ready bag that works for both the beach and long travel days, I stumbled upon this canvas tote. The appeal of this style is obvious; it’s structured, spacious, and works if you're wondering what to wear on a plane as well as beach days. I used it as my carry-on for the long-haul flights and managed to fit in everything I needed: my headphones, a book, snacks, a charger, and a jumper with room to spare.

And once we arrived, the bag doubled as a beach bag effortlessly. Each morning, I packed it with a towel, water, suncream, mosquito spray, and other beach essentials, and was amazed at just how spacious (and stylish) it was.

Shop the Radley Canvas Large Tote

In terms of travelling, the attachable internal purse was a lifesaver. Anyone who knows me tends to assume that I shouldn't be trusted with passports, but this time my partner actually handed them over to me because I had somewhere safe and secure to put them. As well as some other key essentials, such as our physical flight confirmation and my headphones.

The magnetic closure means that you can quickly and securely close up the bag when needed, which also adds to its appeal. It has winged sides which can be tucked inwards if you're looking to change the appearance of the tote, and shrink its footprint, adding to its versatility.

Aesthetically, its canvas material looks and feels elevated and pairs perfectly with almost any colourway. In the daytime, I would pair it with my Boden swimwear pieces, which thanks to the bold, vibrant prints, needed the soft neutral tone of the bag to balance them.

I also wore it alongside my favourite beach coverups in bright blue or crimson red botanical prints. The neutral tone went with almost everything, which is an essential characteristic when trying to keep packing to a minimum.

If you’re looking for a travel tote that can double up as an excellent beach bag, this should be a top contender. It’s now earned a permanent place when it comes to packing holiday outfit ideas, and I'm even using it for daily commuting and warm-weather weekend outings too.

The blend of a polished, tailored jacket and casual jeans is such a winning fashion formula and will sit equally well for a day at the office as it will for a shopping trip or a dinner date. There are plenty of ways to update the look, too, and Halle Berry just showed us how with one of her most recent outfits.

The 58-year-old actress rocked a soft white blazer and T-shirt with a pair of straight-leg jeans that had ripped detailing down the front and a raw hem. She finished her high-meets-low combination with a top-handle Gucci bag and some slip-on Loewe Petal Anagram leather sliders. I love every item that the star is wearing, but it's Halle's jeans that really caught my attention.

It's been a while since I spotted a pair of distressed denim trousers looking so sharp, as over the last few seasons we have seen a real lean towards barrel leg jeans and simpler straight-leg styles. Halle has worn slashed denim a number of times over the last few weeks and styled them differently each time. She has made a very strong case for a ripped denim revival, and I, for one, am really happy to see some torn jeans out in the open again. I will definitely be digging out my old pair to recreate Halle's look.

Halle’s outfit is a total wardrobe winner and very easy to recreate but if you're still unsure about the distressed denim trend, I totally get it. The slashed knees may seem a little bit grungy, but when it comes to styling, simply wear your ripped bottoms as you would any of your other jeans.

I will wear mine with an oversized T-shirt and my leopard print ballet flats for weekend plans, or for a busy work day, I will match them with a button-down white shirt and shiny loafers.

They have a more casual feel than plainer jeans, so they are probably best suited to daytime dressing, but you can always finish them with heels and a silky cami as a fresh take on date night outfits.

Starting with a Roxanne mini purchased at my first ever sample sale as an intern, then a Darley in a gorgeous collegiate stripe (another sample sale find) and an Alexa for my 30th birthday, I thought my Mulberry bag trio was complete until I laid eyes on their latest collection of accessories.

However, this time it's not a bag for me but rather my family's smallest member, Seff the miniature dachshund. At 13 years old, Seff still commutes with me to different freelance jobs, but given his age, he doesn't always fancy walking - who could blame him?

Mulberry's new pet accessories collection is so chic

Our current dog carrier has served us well but it's looking decidedly worse for wear and now that I've spied this chic oxblood number from Mulberry, I can't get it out of my head. Priced at £995, it's not a cheap option but given that it could easily double up as a regular tote, could it be a sound investment for my smallest charge and myself as a new handbag?

It even has environmental credentials too as the bag is made from a beautiful oxblood small classic grain leather that is surplus to the production of the brand's main range of handbags, meaning that there is less leather waste from the factory floor.

The Mulberry dog carrier has all of the hallmarks of a traditionally quiet luxury handbag from the brand too, featuring an embossed signature logo, sublime stitching and a clever pocket on the body side of the bag for essentials. However, given that it is first and foremost a bag for your furry friend, it also has other clever details. The bag is lined in wipe-clean nylon rather than cotton to allow for easy cleaning, there's a clip to attach to your dog's collar to stop them leaping out that could double as a key clip when they're not there and one side of the gusset opening features a discreet added section to provide additional protection for your dog's body at the rear.

I decided to take it for a spin around the streets of West London. It was the perfect accessory to elevate my smart casual outfit consisting of my favourite Mint Velvet Leopard jeans, a denim jacket and sunglasses.

Designed for toy boys and small breeds only, I'm lucky that Seff the sausage dog fits easily inside it. As a slightly larger miniature dachshund he quickly fills most of the bag up, not leaving much space for anything other than essentials.

Alongside the Mulberry dog carrier bag, the brand has also created a limited edition collection of stylish dog accessories for a head-to-tail look. As well as typical dog accessories in the form of leads and collars plus two cool key rings, Mulberry have reimagined two of their classic bag styles as dog owner essentials.

The Mulberry Lily (dog) bag, one of the best affordable designer handbags on the market, has been scaled down into miniature form to create the perfect dog treat carrier, while the Mulberry Bayswater (dog bag) appears as a tiny taupe iteration designed to hold a roll of dog waste bags.

Even if you're not a dog owner, these chic miniature bags could easily be some of the best bag charms to adorn your handbag too, so even if you don't have a furry friend, priced at £295, they're great entry points to the brand.

SHOP THE COLLECTION

Would I be willing to spend £995 on a bag that was just for my dog? Maybe not, but given the beautiful classic cut of the Mulberry bag itself, the classic oxblood hue and the fact that it can easily double up as a tote bag big enough to carry my laptop, I'm giving it serious thought, because I can max out that cost-per-wear and both Seff and I can benefit from this beautiful purchase.

At the very least, I'll definitely be treating Seff to a cool new leather collar and the cross-body lead so that he can maintain his status as best dressed dog... and maybe a tiny Bayswater bag for me to clip onto my bag for his walk essentials.

As timeless as black or tan, the oxblood colourway looks incredibly decadent and is so easy to style too, teaming with everything from denim to more formal items.

Whether you go for the big purchase (and share with your pup), or start small with accessories, there is no question that this a super stylish collection for those who want their dog to look as fashion forward as their owners.

But our favourite outfit has to be Hannah Bagshawe's. Eddie Redmayne's wife wore a simple but très chic blue denim midi shirt dress, which is from none other than high street favourite Cos. Hannah is often spotted on the red carpet in dreamy designer dresses by Alexander McQueen, so it shows just how good this little number is.

Her £115 denim midi shirt dress has now sold out, but there are similar styles still available on the site. I love the longer length, slightly dropped waist and belt loop detailing, and the beauty of a dress like this is how versatile it is. Wear it à la Hannah with a pair of platform Superga trainers, or on super hot days with some Birkenstocks. Then, in the cooler weather, knee-high boots will add a really sophisticated feel.

Hannah isn't the only fan of a denim shirt dress like this. In recent weeks, we've fallen for the Gabriela Hearst style that Kate Middleton and Gillian Anderson have both worn.

It's such an effortless option that you don't have to overthink - you can throw it on, whether you're keeping things casual or dressing up for a bigger occasion. It's certainly a good idea for a day of watching tennis at Wimbledon, as it will work for both warm and cool temperatures, and will keep you feeling comfortable for a long day of walking and enjoying strawberries and cream!

A loose yet well-fitted pair of trousers can easily work in the sunshine, and can often feel just as breezy and wearable as a traditional wide leg, all the while looking a little more polished. A perfect example of wearing tailored separates at this time of year is Meg Ryan’s chic T-shirt and trouser ensemble, which the actress wore while visiting a museum in Spain recently.

The 63-year-old teamed this printed Loewe T-shirt with a pair of black barrel-leg trousers, which were high-waisted and had neat pleat details down the front. When it comes to smart casual outfit ideas, this one really works, and Meg finished it perfectly with a pair of chunky black boots and some rounded sunglasses.

The whole ensemble worked nicely together, and it's brilliantly versatile, because she buddied up a casual type of top with a preppy and fitted pair of bottoms. This look could easily work for a shopping trip, cocktail hour, or the office, and I will definitely be recreating it over the coming weeks.

When it comes to browsing for summer-ready trousers, look for light and breathable fabrics like cotton and linen, and opt for slightly looser leg shapes that won't cling, as this will keep you feeling comfortable on even the warmest of days.

I love Meg’s chunky boots, but for a softer footnote, opt for your leopard print ballet flats or a simple pair of chunky espadrilles. To take your tailored bottoms from daytime to playtime, try switching out casual footwear for a pair of court shoes or metallic strappy heels too.

A perfect example of her fashion know-how is the outfit she recently shared on Instagram. JLo posted a picture of herself wearing an oversized white T-shirt with beige wide-leg trousers, and she finished the look with a pair of Nike x Commes Des Garcons Cortez Platform Trainers, a soft grey cap and her signature aviator sunglasses.

Rested on the sofa next to her was an Hermes Birkin, too. Apart from the very luxurious designer bag, Jennifer’s combination is a low-key and comfy-looking outfit, and it proves that even everyday basics really can have a high-end feel.

The star looked really comfortable in her ensemble, and it’s one of those outfits that would be perfect for travelling, a trip to the shops or just a day at home. The soft and muted colour palette feels very clean and classic, and her sporty accessories added some oomph without being too much. Want to get in her relaxed vibe, as much as I do? I have rounded up some similar buys below to recreate her look.

Loose, wide-leg trousers like JLo’s are not only easy to wear, but are surprisingly flattering as the floaty shape will sit at your waist and then skim over hips for a leg-lengthening finish. Wear yours with a basic tee, or give them a slightly smarter spin with a fresh white shirt or a fine knit jumper.

Every wardrobe should include a very comfy pair of bottoms, and a soft beige pair like Jennifer’s is a wise investment – they will look chic however you wear them and will add an A-lister feel to your casual weekend plans.

There have been only a handful of standout trends that have received 'it' item status this year, with adidas Sambas dominating our shoe capsule wardrobes and, when it comes to our jackets, none has rocketed in popularity quite like the trench coat. Beginning the year as a winter capsule wardrobe staple, a throwback look from Amal Clooney has proved that the trench will be going nowhere throughout spring as she styled hers with a summer-ready mini dress to battle the rain and keep just warm enough as the cold weather dissipates.

Snapped while out in New York back in 2022, Amal created an elegant and elevated monochrome outfit by pairing a timeless white shift dress with an off-white, longline trench coat. Her trench, which she left unbuttoned, provided the perfect amount of warmth and practical waterproofing when paired with the chic mini dress, with a pair of snakeskin print court shoe heels finishing off the look and bringing in a subtle pop of pattern.

woman&home's Fashion Ecommerce Editor Caroline Parr says: "Invest in a good trench coat, and it won't only see you through April showers. You'll be wearing it long into summer too! Choose a lighter colour and a lightweight colour for the perfect warm weather cover-up."

While Amal's dress is a mini, it still offers lots of coverage thanks to its high-sitting neckline, which runs high across the collarbones and accentuates the shoulders beautifully. Playing into this clean, sharp and simple look, the loose-fitting bodice of Amal's dress plays into this understated though flattering look, with an A-line silhouette at the skirt giving a 60s-style shift dress feel that's so classic and timeless.

There are plenty of similar dress styles available on the high street, with sleeveless styles made all the more wearable with high, flattering necklines like that of Amal's dress.

As her mini dress itself was simple and classic, Amal leaned into this with her accessories. She completed the look with a black leather handbag, as she does with most of her outfits, and it's no wonder she often opts for a classic black handbag like this one. It's a great, staple accessory that can take you effortlessly from day to night and occasion to occasion, oozing luxury and sophistication no matter how it is styled.

With minimal jewellery, our eyes were drawn to Amal's choice of shoe. Playing into the classic feel of the rest of her outfit while also adding a fun pop of pattern, Amal opted for a pair of classic court-style heels to accessorise the dress. Their snakeskin print and blend of neutral tones brought in a nice pop of texture while still playing into the muted and almost monochrome outfit, proving yet again that you can never go wrong with some animal print.

Amal threw on a crisp, white double-breasted trench coat over the top of the dress, with the neutral colour matching the tone of her outfit perfectly for a sleek style that oozes sophistication. We've actually seen Amal in this coat before, and she even paired it with the same snakeskin heels too! Though she opted to add a little more colour and wore a beautiful green midi dress with the two staples, proving their impressive versatility.

The entire look is a masterclass in simple yet sophisticated styling, with the white mini dress, snakeskin heels, trench coat and handbag all being wardrobe staples that can effortlessly transition through seasons and occasions.

I'm not a huge fan of getting my feet out, even when I have a fresh summer pedicure. But this year Katie has inspired me to get my toes out with her comfortable summer staple. She's been spotted numerous times wearing the Birkenstock 1774 Arizona Sandals over the past few summers.

With the same iconic two-strap, slide-on design of Birkenstock's other Arizona styles, Katie's 1774 pair has an all-black colourway and shining buckle. This makes them look so sleek and versatile, not to mention comfortable, with their smooth nappa leather footbed and EVA sole that keeps them super flexible.

At £380, they're not the most affordable Birkenstocks on offer - but the brand do have a whole range of black Arizona sandals at a more affordable price.

woman&home's Fashion Ecommerce Editor Caroline Parr says she can't live without her sandals in the summer months. She says, "Once you go Birky, you'll never look back! Endlessly versatile, super comfortable, and celebrity-approved, they're such a good investment. I'd recommend sticking to classic black in order to maximise your wardrobe options."

Shop Birkenstock Arizona Sandals

In the height of July back in 2021, Katie slipped into her pair to finish off a laid-back, easy-going outfit of muted, neutral joggers and a black muscle tee.

Nailing the comfy-chic look, the slightly cropped hem of her trousers cut off at a super flattering ankle length, and the simple, two-strap look of the sandals worked alongside this to create a sleek and streamlined look against her bare ankle.

With a baseball cap and simple black crossbody finishing off the outfit, it's hard to imagine a different pair of shoes working as well with this casual look as Katie's Birkenstocks do.

She also proved the sandals' brilliance at finishing off more dressier, elevated styles when, in July 2020, she created a monochrome outfit by pairing them with a summer-ready black mini dress, statement belt, and a pair of oversized sunglasses.

Back in 2020, Katie leaned into another elevated though still perfectly casual look when she styled her Birkenstocks with a denim midi skirt and simple plain white tee. Channeling the best of 90s fashion, the simple a-line denim midi cut off just below the knee and boasted a comfortable high waist.

After seeing celebrities like Oprah Winfrey and Poppy Delevingne wearing stripey trousers recently, though, I was tempted to be a bit braver and try something new. Stripes are one of those key spring/summer fashion trends that seem to come around every year, and I've spent over a decade writing about the leg-lengthening effect they can have and just how versatile they can be. I decided to practice what I preach and try it for myself, and I'm happy to report I'm now hooked.

The first pair I tried was a red and white silky style from Yours Clothing. They were super comfy and floaty to wear in the sun, and I wore them with a graphic print T-shirt and some comfortable trainers. I felt very free to be wearing something other than my heavier jeans, so I quickly invested in another striped pair.

This time, I opted for blue and brown lined trousers from Asos. They had a barrel leg fit, which I really love, and a slightly thicker fabric, which felt quite smart. I wore mine with a plain top and sandals on holiday and had zero complaints - they were fun to wear and easy to move around in while I chased my little ones around during our busy days.

I’ve found both pairs to be dreamy to wear, and they are far more flattering than I expected. I’m kicking myself for not trying this trend sooner, as I love how they look and how much fun they bring to my wardrobe.

If you're unsure about trying this look, I urge you to face your fear and give stripes a go. I'm pleasantly surprised, and I've been wearing mine again and again over the last few weeks.

Shop Striped Trousers

I'd recommend shopping around and trying on a few pairs to find your best fit, and it's worth considering your body type and your personal style to find the right shape and stripe for you. I like bright and bold colourways, but if you prefer something more understated, then a classic pinstriped grey or navy pair would look just as chic and might feel a little less daunting.

When it comes to styling stripes, you have plenty of options. Buddy them up with plain separates like a classic shirt or plain vest top, or make even more of a statement with a different type of stripe or a slogan T-shirt.

There isn't an age limit on this cheerful trend either. I asked fellow Fashion Editor Julie Player for tips on styling striped trousers when you're over 50, and she told me: "I’ve got a fabulous blue and white striped linen suit that I love wearing in the summer, but when I wear it, I’m inevitably subjected to ‘jovial’ comments.

"Luckily, I’ve got the confidence to completely ignore these ‘helpful’ comments and wear the suit regardless. But to be fair, they may have a point. Wearing a loose-fitting pair of striped trousers with a matching top is always going to give off pyjama vibes, and most women over 50 don't want to look like they've just got out of bed!

"Instead, elevate your stripey trousers with classic, tailored items. Try pairing with a white T-shirt and fitted blazer, adding simple gold jewellery to finish the look. Alternatively, team with clashing florals or polka dots for a fun, more relaxed vibe."

I adore the crisp shirt and blazer combinations as well as elegant tea dresses, and although I won’t actually be attending a match, the whole Wimbledon vibe seems to take over my wardrobe for a few weeks each year, and I find myself dressing a little more preppy to channel some Centre Court chic into my outfits.

So imagine my joy, when I discovered that Boden’s latest drop is filled with tennis-inspired pieces that are absolutely perfect for this time of year - the British clothing brand has aced it with a whole host of stylish staples that are covered in a playful racket print, and I couldn’t love it anymore if I tried.

There’s everything from polished A-line skirts and button-down shirts to a simple jersey top and a tiered maxi, and each of them is covered with a vintage-looking print.

When it comes to Wimbledon-inspired style, it’s officially game, set and match with this cheery collection.

Shop The Collection

Wimbledon kicks off on the 30th June, and amongst the spectators you'll often spot famous faces including the Princess of Wales, Zara Tindall and Queen Camilla, so I'm already looking forward to seeing their wardrobe choices.

I actually wouldn’t be surprised to see some celebrities wearing pieces from this Boden range while watching the tennis, as it’s the perfect way to celebrate the sport in style.

The joyful print doesn’t have to be saved just for watching a match either, as the pieces are all total classics, and the statement pattern will work all summer long. If bolder prints feel a little daunting, simply tone them down with plain separates, denim and your best white trainers.

If you're looking to update your warm weather wardrobe but aren't sure where to start, in my opinion, you really can't go wrong with bright colours and bold florals as they always feel fresh and fun for the sunny season. It seems that Helen Skelton feels the same way, as the presenter shared some recent photos on Instagram wearing a gorgeous co-ord set that ticked off both key trends perfectly, and it had a lovely holiday vibe that is perfect for this time of year.

Helen looked amazing in a patterned top and skirt set from Zara, and the 41-year-old finished the matchy-matchy combination with a pair of tan strappy sandals and some timeless aviator sunglasses. The star looked gorgeous, and it's one of those looks that will work just as well for a summer wedding as it will for daytime plans – you’ll get endless wardrobe mileage out of this statement co-ord.

Bright botanical prints like Helen’s set will really wow when worn together, but if you're unsure about wearing top-to-toe bold blooms, you can easily dress down each separate with some clever styling. Try teaming the skirt with a crisp white button-down or a slouchy grey T-shirt, and the top will sit well with your barrel leg jeans or layered under a classic blazer.

However you choose to wear them, the co-ord will work for this season and for summers to come – buy now, and love forever!

A clever reinvention of this timeless accessory, rather than opting for a leather belt, Sharon Stone reached for a silky scarf to add detail to her waistline. This super simple styling hack added a splash of print to her outfit, and demonstrated a clever way of making scarves work harder in your wardrobe and adding interest to classic outfits.

One of the most popular accessories of 2025, the neck scarf fashion trend has been a huge hit for style savvy shoppers, but Sharon Stone's rework of the look adds longevity to any new scarf buys and is a great switch-up for classic leather belts.

Styling scarf belts

Worn much like a regular belt, Sharon Stone weaved her printed scarf through the belt loops of her trousers, before tying it to fasten it. Leaving a little bit of the scarf loose for a burst of brightness and texture, the chic styling hack is one you can recreate on trousers, jeans or skirts.

By using the belt loops, Sharon ensured her scarf would stay in place, ensuring her look would feel smart, rather than running the risk of the scarf untying and falling off. The added detail at the waist, drawing the eye in at a centre point, helped to create an hourglass silhouette, even with a blazer obscuring the star's shape.

Coordinating her bag and scarf, as the colour focuses of the look, Sharon's muted attire allowed her accessories to steal the show, and the heeled loafers felt like a directional nod to the shoe trends of 2025, whilst remaining in line with her tailored ensemble.

An easy look to recreate, whether you're reworking current scarves or investing in new ones, opt for larger sizes so that you get a decent-sized knot. Pair bright colours or bold prints with neutral ensembles, this is a great one for refreshing denim, or go fully maximalist and team print on print.

While the scarf belt might not be the item you immediately notice on Sharon Stone's ensemble, this subtle detail sparked our interest straight away, because it's the finishing touches that make her look Quiet Luxury. Elegant but not shouty, with just the right amount of accessorising and colour to have a look that feels cohesive but directional.

For a winning outfit formula every time, curate for yourself a solid foundation of building block items. Neutral suiting, timeless jeans, and crisp white shirts and t-shirts all fall into this category. These items don't go in and out of fashion, but they do help to hold an outfit together and allow you to play with accessories to add in a more modern or cutting-edge element to an outfit, without your look feeling cluttered.

The scarf belt is one such styling tool, and it's such an easy win. Try Sharon Stone's look with a pair of indigo jeans and a simple t-shirt to help you get used to the look, and let those compliments roll in.

When we think of SJP's most memorable outfits, images of tutus and, of course, Manolo Blahnik heels come to mind. But the actress proved she knows how to style comfortable and cosy loungewear pieces too with this ensemble.

For this particular outing she was seen wearing something we never thought we would see her in; tracksuit bottoms. Styling the comfortable staple, she showed us exactly how to transform loungewear into the ideal elevated casual wear by pairing hers with a baggy white shirt and some sporty, off-white adidas trainers.

If you're someone who wants to prioritise comfort in your capsule wardrobe but struggles to make more casual pieces look sophisticated, this look is one to take inspiration from.

woman&home's Fashion Ecommerce Editor Caroline Parr agrees: "SJP's look is the epitome of business on the top, casual on the bottom. Who knew a crisp white shirt and pearls would work so well with joggers and sneakers? I love what she's done with the laces too. It's rare to see her wearing anything other than heels, so you know these trainers must be good!"

While trackies might not be the item that comes to mind when we think of SJP, when you take in her styling, this outfit still feels characteristically like the fashion icon we've come to know and love. Her voluminous waved hairstyle and the addition of a long pearl necklace help to make this relaxed outfit feel more refined, with us learning a valuable styling lesson when it comes to accessories.

Even the simplest addition of your favourite necklace or pair of earrings can make loungewear look chic.

Although tracksuit bottoms are designed for lounging around, there are plenty of ways to make them feel smarter for all manner of occasions. Straight leg cuts typically have a chicer feel than cuffed options, and dark hues tend to be easier to dress up than lighter ones.

The simplest method for making them appear put-together is balancing out the slouchy silhouette with a tailored top like a button-up shirt or blouse that has a formal feel. Or, if you want to wear an equally as comfortable top, a crisp white slogan tee is both loose and fashion-forward, whilst being more elevated than loungewear options. Come autumn, a chic cardigan or cashmere jumper can offer cosiness and a smart look that will even be suitable for the office.

Finish off the outfit with a pair of the best white trainers or some ballet flats to bring a feminine feel back to the oversized shape of your look without sacrificing the comfort appeal.

In cherry red, one of this season's hottest hues, Zoe combined three separate items to create her block coloured style. The smart casual outfit idea was made up of a sleek, midi pencil skirt, a U-shaped sleeveless tank top and a nonchalantly shoulder-draped cardigan by Gia Studios, accented by Saint Laurent accessories and a smattering of Cartier jewels.

Tucking the tank top into the waistband of her skirt, Zoe Saldaña created an almost dress-like aesthetic. The straight up and down cut suited Zoe's silhouette, and the addition of the loosely tied cardigan gave the whole outfit a more sporty feel. Breaking up the tonal look, Zoe accented her outfit with bright white shoes to add a second focal point, as well as layering delicate fine jewellery, that despite its price tag still felt laidback.

One of the hottest hues of the season, cherry red is the colour to invest in

A big part of the spring/summer 2025 fashion trends, red tones have been a huge hit both on and off the runway, with the likes of Louis Vuitton, Jacquemus and Bottega Veneta all opting for this colour family, from burgundy and merlot to tomato tones, it's all about red right now.

A passionate colour, Zoe's outfit was perfect for a sunny day, the slit at the back of the pencil skirt ensured that despite the fitted silhouette, the star had plenty of movement in the look. Pairing the red with white gave the ensemble a summer-ready feel, as opposed to a festive one, Zoe finished off the outfit with some sleek tortoiseshell sunglasses.

Part of the sunglasses trends for 2025, tortoiseshell frames never really date, making them a fantastic investment piece for seasons to come. With a cat-eye inspired silhouette, Zoe's sunglasses are a pair she can turn to again and again.

When it comes to wearing this trending colourway, don't be afraid to go bold. Zoe's look proves that multiple red pieces together, when similar in tone, can look exceptionally chic, and playing with texture, such as adding a piece of knitwear for example can help to add depth and interest.

Think about the balance of your overall outfit, not just in terms of colour and shape, but how your accessories complement your look. If you're wearing a bright hue, consider more muted and quiet jewellery items to help pull your outfit together, but there is no need for multiple elements to fight for attention.

Contrast is key here. Zoe Saldaña's all-over red look is made even more striking by adding white shoes. The white hue matches the skirt lining, making this outfit feel even more seamless, but it also helps to cement the colour as the main feature of this look.

If going for an all-over red look still feels too much, start injecting this trend into your wardrobe slowly. Try a red pair of shoes, a handbag or even just a new season scarf to slowly integrate the colour while you get comfortable with it.

In 2013, Jennifer Aniston reminded us how we can wear simple styles and still look well put together. Stripping back her style, she looked relaxed and chic in a pair of denim shorts, basic white tank top and a pair of wedges.

"Jennifer Aniston's closet is proof that simple ensembles can often be much chicer than fussy prints or trend-led looks", says woman&home's Fashion Ecommerce Editor Caroline Parr. "Get these summer season basics perfected, and dressing for the warmer weather will be easy every year."

Channel Jen's Style

Jen's look is the perfect style for a hot summer day, playing into timeless denim trends with her loose-fitting, low-rise denim shorts that had a chic belted waist detail and flattering, relaxed shape.

Leaning into a low-key and laid-back feel, she paired the denim shorts with a crisp white vest top. With a scoop neck and thick shoulder straps, the piece looked effortless while also being super flattering as it complemented her radiant summer tan.

Adding instant elevation to the laid-back look, a pair of espadrille wedge heels in a muted khaki tone completed the trio of casual classics, injecting a glam edge.

Odds are, a simple cotton vest top and pair of slouchy denim shorts are pieces that already have a home within your closet, so making like Jen and whipping them out to wear with a pair of statement summer heels or sandals is an easy way to dress for the hotter days of summer.

If you don't already own a white tank top or pair of denim shorts, you're missing out! They're seriously versatile basics that are really easy to shop and invest in from the high street, and you'll find that they work for a variety of occasions. Pair the tank with floating skirts and heels for a more dressed-up feel, or pair your shorts with a blouse and some chic sandals for a similarly elevated look.

Accessorize with a pair of on-trend sunglasses like Jen, layer on the elegant jewellery and a statement watch, and you've got a go-to outfit you can re-wear over and over.

We're huge jumpsuit fans here at woman&home, so when we spotted EastEnders star Gillian Taylforth arriving at the event in style wearing a blush pink all-in-one, we had to know where it was from. Looks expensive, doesn't it?

In fact, it's from Phase Eight, the British clothing brand that is a go-to for occasionwear. One of the label's jumpsuits made it onto our list of the best mother of the bride outfits, and this one has to be a contender if you're looking for wedding guest outfits.

The sculptural bow at the neckline is simply stunning, and Gillian showed it off perfectly by wearing her hair up, adding only a sparkly bracelet. The best thing about a jumpsuit is quite how fuss-free it is. You won't have to spend any time ahead of a big event deciding whether this top works with that skirt!

If you're wondering what to wear to a wedding, blush pink is a great option. It's safe enough not to be mistaken for white, and if you're not a fan of florals, this is a minimalist, elegant choice.

Between us on the fashion team, we've recently been asking can you wear red to a wedding? but if you're not sure about such a bold pop of colour, pale pink is the perfect hue for you.

The 'Stephy' jumpsuit from Phase Eight is selling out fast, and it's available in UK sizes 6 to 20. The upper half is made from a different fabric from the trousers, giving the look of separates. So it looks like you've put even more thought into your ensemble. We won't tell anyone your secret!

Gillian posed with soap legend Anita Dobson as they arrived at the event. Anita gave her friend a run for her money, wearing a blingy embellished blazer with matching leggings and a slogan T-shirt.

How to style yours

Wearing an Anna Quan jacket from Revolve with matching trousers, Jessica gave a directional take on women's trouser suits. The dark wash denim was ideal for a smart casual outfit idea, making it appropriate for her Good Morning America TV appearance.

While denim jackets and shirts are often less form-fitting, the tailored cut of the Quan piece highlighted Jessica's frame, nipping in at the waist, before a peplum-style finish that delivered an hourglass silhouette. Paired with the jeans, the two-piece looked like a flattering jumpsuit, giving the appearance of an all-in-one, with the fit benefits of separates.

Double denim has had a 2025 makeover and it's so easy to recreate

Jessica Biel's zip-through denim jacket featured vertical stitch detailing that created a lengthened silhouette while the flap pockets at the waist helped to draw the eye in, narrowing her middle. The short sleeves offered a modern twist on classic denim jackets, giving what is usually a spring or autumn piece a more summery feel.

Teamed with gently flared jeans, the success of this denim suit is all in the cut and stitching. Using contrast tan and white threads, as well as a statement ring-zip, this Anna Quan ensemble gave denim a feminine finish, using every opportunity to provide an outfit that highlighted and supported Jessica's shape.

Taking note of the contrast tan hue, Jessica leaned into this for her accessories, pairing her denim co-ord with timeless tan heels and a neat tan shoulder bag with a statement buckle. While her look fits into the denim trends for 2025, this ensemble is one that can continue to inspire your capsule wardrobe for years to come.

A classic combination, denim and tan always tick the wearability box for us, so however you interpret Jessica's look, stick to this palette for investment pieces. A pair of indigo denim jeans not only don't date, but if you're wondering whether jeans can be business casual, this is the hue you should go for. Dark blue jeans are less harsh than black, and as black can wash out to a not-so-smart grey, dark blue jeans tend to hold onto their colour well for a longer-lasting wear.

When it comes to denim jackets, the classic trucker styles will always have a spot in our wardrobe, but the modern, short-sleeve take worn by Jessica has got us wanting to invest in newer denim designs. More feminine and definitely dressier, a short-sleeved denim jacket, with a form-fitted cut, can be worn as both a cover-up in the summer months or fastened over a camisole as a top for added wear, particularly if the denim has a softer handle.

Although when we think about double denim, Justin Timberlake's 2001 ensemble often springs to mind, Jessica Biel has just put this co-ord back on the map in the most stylish of ways, and we can't wait to try it.

Way before we all clocked on to how chic and sophisticated burgundy tones are, Amal was wearing the color and looking effortlessly elegant. And her outfit for the Giambattista Valli store opening in London in 2018 is still impossibly on trend – her burgundy style is by far one of the best jumpsuits we've seen.

Showing us how easily the color can transition from a fall and winter staple into something perfect for warmer months, Amal's jumpsuit is made from a laser-cut lace fabric, with frill detailing at the one shoulder bodice adding tonnes of texture and interest to the otherwise simple shape of the design. In line with the event, her look is from Giambattista Valli and she styled it expertly by adding a pair of dazzling gold earrings, some gold Gianvito Rossi heels and a matching metallic clutch bag.

Shop Amal's style

woman&home's Fashion Writer Molly Smith explains that while we tend to think of burgundy as a 'warm, wintry and truly festive' shade, it also works so well for this time of year on a piece like Amal's, with the one-shouldered design being more warm-weather appropriate.

She says: "Amal's burgundy jumpsuit is everything we want to see in an outfit during this time of year. Plus, a jumpsuit is perfect for so many body types, making it the ultimate flattering choice for special occasions."

A one-shoulder silhouette can really help to elongate your figure and is especially good for rectangular body shapes. Personally I'm quite pear-shaped, but I love a jumpsuit that creates balance and is so easy to style.

How to style your jumpsuit

The Absolutely Fabulous star, who is set to appear in season two of the smash hit Netflix Wednesday, was pictured at a Netflix event in California last week. She's certainly a long way from her alter ego Patsy's old haunt, Harvey Nics!

She put her own spin on the tuxedos for women trend in a pair of white wide-leg trousers with a matching camisole and a tailored longline blazer, which fell to ankle length. Add in a pair of mesh panelled brogues - which appear to be these Ralph Lauren beauties - and Joanna looked impossibly chic.

She so often wears bold prints like tropical florals or polka dots, so this sleek look feels like a real gear change. A longline jacket will be an asset to any wardrobe and will always make you feel put together. This styling hack also applies to a button-down midi dress, too: try wearing one open at the front with tailored trousers and a camisole, for a lightweight summer layer that will help you make a dramatic entrance.

White might be a tricky colour to wear to weddings, but there are plenty of occasions when sleek white tailoring will work. It's a great idea if you're wondering what to wear to Wimbledon, for example. You can of course, mix and match too - a long white jacket like Joanna's will work just as well with jeans.

woman&home's Fashion Writer Molly Smith loves this sophisticated look on Joanna as much as I do. She said, "white tailoring is a go-to for summer.

"There's something so crisp and elevated about a quality pair of tailored trousers in bright white, and paired with a tailored blazer creates the kind of look that can transition so easily from a late afternoon garden party to an evening dinner on holiday."

If you're currently wondering what to wear in the heat and how to channel that sought-after energy of someone who knows exactly how to dress in high temperatures, this combination is your answer: high-waisted white trousers, a blue striped poplin shirt, and simple white leather flats.

The power of white trousers should never be underestimated, especially when packing for sunnier climates. And when worn with a structured poplin shirt tucked into the waist, a pair of quality white trousers becomes a summer capsule wardrobe essential.

Both her light blue shirt and white high-waisted trousers are from Celine, and her minimalist white leather flats are from the brand Roger Vivier. She accessorised with simple Chopard jewellery and a pair of oval sunglasses from Oliver Peoples.

White trousers have always been a summer favourite, and their versatility allows them to work for almost any occasion, from city breaks to beach days. For warmer temperatures, opt for light breathable fabrics, for example, try linen or cotton materials in wide-leg or loose silhouettes.

Completing an outfit like this with some on-trend white leather flats truly ties everything together, adding a polished touch that elevates this outfit into one that can be worn for evenings out as well as for daytime laid-back outings.

This outfit is the perfect reminder that summer dressing doesn't have to be overcomplicated. A pair of wide-leg white trousers in a quality fabric and a structured poplin shirt in a light blue for the kind of outfit that works for almost everything, from travel days to terrace dinners.

Wearing a fluid chocolate brown skirt with a grey jumper and woven black flats, Julianne Moore's recent outfit offers the perfect example of how to style a satin skirt. The deep, rich colour of her skirt feels elevated and on-trend while the lightweight knit softens this look, keeping it extremely wearable and laid-back.

Often, a satin skirt is reserved for evenings out or dressed-up occasions, but this is the kind of outfit combination that you can easily integrate into your day-to-day summer capsule wardrobe. To finish, she opted for a large black woven tote bag from Bottega Veneta and some woven leather flats, from the same brand.

Moore was spotted strolling the streets of New York, a week after the release of her Netflix hit series Sirens.

This isn't the first time we've spotted a satin skirt this season on one of our favourite celebrities, and Katie Holmes wore a cream satin skirt paired with a tailored blazer and black heeled boots earlier in the year. However, Moore's take feels far easier to recreate for day-to-day styling, proving that this staple doesn't have to be exclusive for special occasion dressing.

Plus, the colour combination is another reason this look works so well. The deep chocolate brown of the skirt is rich and warm, whilst the soft grey knit brings a lighter, more relaxed contrast. And to finish, the black flats and large tote bag feel intentional and smart.
