Until the season warms up, spring outfit ideas can be tricky. Cold mornings can turn into warm and sunny afternoons, while blue skies can become strong winds by the evening, meaning we need outfits that will work for every type of weather.
There is one obvious answer to the problem: jeans. A wardrobe staple for a reason, and Holly Willoughby just used them to create an easy, casual spring outfit that’s a fail-safe option for this time of year.
Her lightwash, ankle-grazing jeans looked neat thanks to their gently tapered leg, which complemented the cut of her Nanette boots by Grenson, which are part of her collaboration with the brand. Hiker-boot styles and playful hardware brought textural interest to her pared-back outfit, which she finished with a navy jumper and coordinating tailored coat.
Recreate Holly's Spring Style
Levi's ribcage jeans are a classic style, thanks to their flattering high waist and straight leg that hits the ankle with a neat and polished hem.
These stylish Next boots make for a more affordable alternative to Holly's Grenson pair, with a similar shape and buckle detailing creating a stylish look.
Like Holly's navy coat, this one from Hush boasts an easy-going, regular fit, elevated by a double-breasted front and a detachable belt at the waist.
These M&S jeans are available in a range of denim hues; their Light Indigo tone is a great match for Holly's denim. The tapered leg is so flattering, too.
Navy is a great alternative to black in the warmer seasons, offering a softer look while still being just as versatile. This knit will see tons of wear.
Whether dressed down with a jeans outfit like Holly's, elevated alongside midi skirts or tailored trousers, or even paired with occasion wear, this coat will be in your wardrobe for years to come.
There's still plenty of time to embrace the main spring/summer fashion trends for 2026, but there is no denying that jeans and boots outfits like Holly's are truly the backbone of our spring capsule wardrobe and styling them together creates an easy, breezy look that can get you through cooler climes.
Navy makes a wonderful alternative to black, a classic neutral that is universally flattering, and Holly proves how well the shade works with everything from denim to tan.
Pairing her navy knit with a matching navy coat, Holly creates a sleek look that feels polished and put together, and the colour palette complements the wash of her jeans too. The jeans themselves play into denim trends for 2026, thanks to the tapered legs, and Holly's excellent choice of hiking boots is a reminder that this shoe trend is one that always comes back around and works brilliantly with denim
