Is anyone else excited at the prospect of wearing jeans again? It's the same sort of excitement I had back in May when the concept of wearing, well, anything other than jeans became an option again. However, after a few months of favouring linen and cotton over denim, I'm once again looking forward to the ease of wearing jeans for autumn. That said, coming up with new ways to style them can sometimes feel monotonous—there are only so many tops and jackets you can wear them with that feel "new", after all. So, ahead of next season, I decided to do some research and stockpile some chic jeans looks to inspire me this autumn. Being a self-confessed Francophile, I turned my attention to French women.

Scroll through socials or celebrity street style pics and you'll spot skirts reoccurring as the breakout trend of the season. Sure, wearing skirts for summer is nothing new, but after seeing everyone from Sabrina Elba to Sabrina Carpenter in dressy midis this month, I'm tempted to step away from wide-leg trousers and get skirts back into my rotation instead.

But we beg to differ.

Jeans are the ideal item for any wardrobe. However, as a 5-foot-tall woman, I dread buying them. Trying on jeans has always made me feel like a kid putting on her mom’s clothes: They’re normally too long or baggy enough to swallow me.
