One of the constants in any wardrobe is denim. Sure, the colour, fit and finish may change over the years but there will always be denim.
The best advice I can give is to dedicate some time to shopping for jeans and, once you've found a pair that works, buy more than one pair.
Included in the small selection below are dark denim options from from longtime local denim devotees Workshop Denim and Australian label Neuw; an on-trend pale, distressed and boyfriend style from sass & bide, a fashion-heavy, double denim option from Maurie & Eve and the latest reinvention of the classic 501 from Levi's.
Beyond jeans, the options are endless. There is a great beaded denim shirt from Glassons, a forever useful denim pencil skirt from Witchery and a fabulous chambray denim shirt dress from Max. I can't live without my denim trucker jacket and Levi's has all colour options covered with its authentic classic offering. I especially love the dark indigo one pictured. Around since the 1850s, Dunedin-based Bing, Harris & Co produces quality denim goods at cheap and cheerful prices - and its distressed Macraes denim vest will take you from layered-up in winter to beach-ready in summer.
