Take Note: This Is How Cool Girls Are Wearing Denim This Fall
Think of your go-to outfit. Without knowing you at all, I can already guess that denim is involved. The classic jeans and T-shirt combo has transcended trends and time, and it's showing no signs of slowing down. While this outfit has proven to be unstoppable, sometimes I like to add a fresh perspective to the look, and there's no better expert in this department than my fellow editor, Yusra Siddiqui.
Her style tends to be edgy, comfortable, and playful. "Jeans help me stick to the 'comfortable' part of my style persona," she says. Yusra has high standards when it comes to denim, and I don't blame her. That's why Levi's® is her go-to denim brand: "because you're always met with the same high-quality standard, no matter what kind of silhouette you go for." No lies were told. Levi's® happen to be sold at Who What Wear editor–favorite retailer, Free People, which always has a perfectly curated selection of brands, washes, silhouettes, and trending styles. Below, Yusra created three key fall looks to give us some much-needed outfit inspiration.
"I'm about to visit Copenhagen, and as I research for the trip, I've been inspired by the colorful fashion of the city. So I incorporated a punchy color into my wardrobe by way of this bright red sweater. I love a good pop of color, but since the sweater was already making a statement, I kept the rest of the look simple with Levi's® latest offering, the XL Straight-Leg Jeans. Free People is the best place to get denim for fall because no matter what your preference is for brand, denim wash, silhouette, or trend, it has it all in a perfectly curated selection. Since the jeans are already a dramatic shape, I finished the look off with delicate ballet flats to even out the proportion of the outfit. It goes perfectly with the Scandinavian vibe I want to follow when I'm on my trip." — Yusra Siddiqui, associate fashion editor
"If I'm not making my coffee at home, my mornings usually start with a quick trip to my local cafe to get whatever seasonal item they have on their menu. This cozy outfit is the perfect ensemble for the occasion. I freshened up the look with a cropped zip-up in a deep espresso shade, and chunky moto boots in the same shade to match. As I walked down a street covered in colored leaves, wearing this ultra-cozy brown sweater with my high-waisted Levi's® just felt right. I have major trust issues when it comes to jeans (sorry, I'm picky!), but Levi's® offers options I can always rely on. This is a quintessential fall outfit and I know I'm going to be repeating it regularly for my cafe trips." — Siddiqui
"I was inspired to wear this by my high-school style. I first fell in love with Levi's® jeans when I bought a pair from my local thrift store. I was almost always wearing those jeans with a leather jacket because I just had to be that moody teenager. For this look, I made the outfit feel more modern by adding loafers and a cozy gray scarf tied around my neck. And instead of my good ol' high-school skinny jeans, I opted for a relaxed fit from Levi’s®. I love that I was able to reference my past and make it feel fresh for the current season! I've gone through the trend cycle of denim, from too-tight skinny jeans to relaxed and baggier styles, and Levi's® has always been there to back my choices." — Siddiqui
