Prepare to feel blessed — SS17 just gave the nod to channel your inner Avril Lavigne circa 2002, because, yep, skater jeans are back, only now they've had a grown-up upgrade.

Get smart
Make your oversized denim feel v important with a smart, but boyish, vibe that'll get you through birthday dinners to bottomless brunches alike. A boxy shirt, like this one, in pastel print is the jersey tee upgrade you've been searching for, just add in a studded belt and some silver mules to make the whole thing feel polished. Smart/casual dress code? No problemo.
Party trick
If comfort and throwing shapes is an important factor for your night out (naturally), then you're going to lose it for this combo. Throw an off-the-shoulder top — with frills for extra fanciness — into the mix and these jeans instantly become a fancy wide-leg pant. Pair with lace-up heels and you're set.
Laidback Luke
Take chill to the next level via an untucked longline (this one gets a new-season makeover with shirting detail) and layer your classic denim jacket for v good '90s game. Then top it off with these ice-purple adidas Originals Climacool sneakers in fresh lilac for a cute color clash.
