      Collaborating with a team of seasoned fashion editors means that every day in the office is an opportunity to learn. Each member contributes their expertise in their particular area—mine happens to be jeans.

      I genuinely believe that during my time as a shopping editor, the jeans from Marks & Spencer have consistently stood out as some of the best available on the high street. Their fit is dependable, the quality endures, and the brand precisely captures the right silhouettes just when they're needed. These are the types of denim you keep returning to. Recently, there's one style that I can't seem to overlook—the barrel-leg. It's popped up everywhere, from my Instagram to the office, and the M&S version is especially well-designed. This silhouette strikes a balance between relaxed and polished. It offers volume through the leg while maintaining control; it has a directional flair, yet it's still comfortable to wear. This shape can elevate an outfit, transforming even the simplest pairings—like a white shirt, blazer, or knit—into something more thoughtful.

      If you're considering refreshing your denim collection this season, these are the jeans I'd recommend starting with.
