"I don&amp;amp;#8217;t wear a great deal of denim, namely because I find jeans a royal pain to try and find. Some people can devote many hours trying them on until they find the perfect pair, but I&amp;amp;#8217;m a shop-&amp;#x27;n&amp;#x27;-go kind of girl. I can barely think of anything worse than spending hours obsessing over denim washes and jean shapes.For spring/summer, though, I saw a lot of denim-like hues that evoked denim without using the material in its conventional form. Some examples: Preen incorporated denim panels into skirts and dresses along with printed chiffon and satin to soften things up. Stella also used a chambray-type denim in soft jackets and shirts and put them with soft chiffon shirts for a relaxed take on the material. Peter Pilotto&amp;amp;#8217;s print-filled collection had hints of denim worked into the draped dresses and spell-binding prints. I&amp;amp;#8217;m definitely in favor of those lighter blue shades of denim, as well as the use of chambray in this Lauren Moffatt dress and the shade of blue in my much-worn Krstof Strozyna jacket. The tights are by a label called Les Queues de Sardines, and, yes, they have eyeballs all over them (only to be broken out on a rainy day when eyeballs peering up at me from my tights can cheer me up). I also dug out this amateur scattered image effort where powder blue, a shade closely related to its denim cousin, is in full effect with some vintage pieces and a pair of Rupert Sanderson shoes. It&amp;#x27;s paired with a headdress from British hat label Le Tour de Force that, again, is good for cheering up on rainy days.
