Who would have thought a few years ago that we'd be looking back to the style-cringe 90s for trend inspiration?! However, this summer the return of bralet tops and high waisted shorts have proven Kelly Kapowski had it right all along. After a decade of believing Britney knew best and wearing the lowest possible slung denims that let's face it, didn't flatter anyone regardless of size or age, the high waist jean is back! Allowing for modesty, comfort and on-trend style, the high waistline draws attention to most women's narrowest part, creating a slimmer silhouette overall. Already seen at both Coachella and the recent Lovebox festival, the high-waist denim cut off is proving to be this season's hottest festival trend. For the brave, go all-out 90s with this look and team your high waist shorts with a bralet and padded-shoulder suede cropped jacket. For an easier look, tuck an oversized tee into your denims and team with biker boots. Take your shorts right through to Autumn/Winter by layering them over tights and adding a cashmere jumper, a button-down shirt and a pair of fail-safe Jeffrey Campbell Litas to elongate your legs.
