I own a very similar looking jacket, which everyone is always trying to steal from me! Now they can have their own.

While lately I've been all about wide leg jeans (this in particular), relishing their virtues (long, lean silhouette! vintage-y detailing but right now looking!), I haven't completely given up on straight-cut jeans, and if I had my druthers, I'd have this pair in my denim arsenal. That's because they possess the same qualities I love about wide leg jeans: a flattering high waist, standout pockets and buttons, and an everyday-cool sensibility. LOVE!

As some stylist friends and I chatted away at a party the other night, we noticed that we were all wearing high-waisted wide leg jeans and button down-blouses. Call it coincidence--or the new chic uniform. It's easy dressing and yet manages to do the impossible: look both timelessly classic and right this minute. What you'll need to pull off this everyday-worthy outfit are flattering, versatile jeans such as these from , , , and , along with instantly-polishing blouses like this , this , this , this , this and this .

Miu Miu's may be all the rage, but I am more than content to roll in this one.

A Saturday night dinner at my sister's house featured a delicious Mallorcan feast (courtesy of a chef friend in town from the Spanish isle) and great fashion inspo, provided by a television producer pal, who turned up in a classically chic striped top, wide leg trousers and a Burberry trench. The striped staple, above, featuring an anything-but-basic zippered neckline, captures her distinctly cool style perfectly.

Among the first designers to kick off New York Fashion Week, Frame Denim provided a glimpse into our blue jean future with its very retro-looking Fall 2015 collection, pictured here. There were '70s-inspired high waists, flared legs, classic indigo washes, along with relaxed fits, and both super long and cropped-just-above-the ankle lengths. If you want to get a jump start on these fresh silhouettes, try these jeans by , (almost sold out!), (also in this ), , , and .

A striped parka packs way more cuteness than a plain old rain coat.

This striped cashmere sweater is as chic as it is cozy--and it's all-weekend-long-ready with jeans and flats.

Speaking of things I can wear now and later, I'm going to trot out these chic white jeans the moment they arrive at my doorstep!
