Wearing a bright yellow jumper, straight-leg denim jeans, and a pair of white trainers, she styled the look with silver cuffs, sunglasses, and a crossover body bag, advising that wearing a handbag strap across the body adds dimension and ''brings something'' to the look. After this, she removes the silver accessories and styles the same outfit with a pair of gold cuffs, a raffia bag, and Ray-Ban glasses. Luckily for you we put together some similar accessories to add to your summer capsule wardrobes.
For those looking to refresh their jeans outfits, these styling tips are invaluable. And choosing belts and hang bags with complimentary tones really helps to deliver that elevated and polished look. Alongside this, if you wear either silver or gold jewellery, consider matching your jewellery with other elements of your outfit, for example match your silver earrings with a silver tone handbag.

Add a touch of glamour to your look with this silver belt. With a thin width, and a silver metallic buckle this is a brilliant wardrobe essential. Style with a white jeans outfit for a chic elevated look.
These are some of the best white trainers, and the platformed sole adds a subtle lift, making them perfect for smart-casual occasions. Style with wide-leg denim jeans for an effortlessly chic flare.
Trinny also wore an outfit featuring wide-leg dark denim jeans from ME+EM with a long-sleeved navy t-shirt from COS. She pairs the look with a thin silver belt, saying the ''belt becomes the decoration'', suggesting that the belt should be small and understated. She adds silver cuffs and platformed white trainers, which makes this look appropriate for both day-time and evening wear.
