And what happens if we combine both styling formulas? The result is a display of an idyllic conception. Ask any woman, and you won’t find one who hasn’t experimented, at least once, with this look that is as classic as it is timeless. So, cigarette jeans with a folded hem in a medium wash, a white T-shirt, an oversized jacket, and preppy-inspired shoes with a sporty essence draw an image of relaxed elegance, absolutely on-trend.

The secret to combining jeans lies in using a basic garment, either a T-shirt or a sweater, and some classic sneakers. An infallible formula and ideal for everyday wear. Here, jeans, as in the 80s, use accessories to elevate the look: a beige trench coat is enough to give it a more formal twist. On the other hand, femininity is accentuated with a bun in the hair and a small handbag.

The styles of the past are easily adaptable to the needs and preferences of the present. Their popularity has made them everyday favorites, allowing us to reinterpret them with a more astute approach. If you’re looking for your next outfit for the office or for a casual outing, don’t hesitate to turn to the ankle drop jeans model, paired with a basic tee, a fitted blazer, and thin strappy heels. The ideal formula to balance comfort and modernity with uniformity.

Another variation of this trend proves that you don’t have to replicate it identically to how it was worn in the past. The garment is taken as inspiration and adapted to the current aesthetic and context. In this case, we resort to contrasting styles: the urban and casual of cigarette jeans merges with the formality of a long, belted overshirt and kitten heels.
