With her long and lean legs, it’s no secret that the 29-year-old British model can rock a pair of jeans. She looks effortlessly chic in this pair of high rise dark ankle-length skinny jeans by Paige Denim. For a finishing touch, Huntington-Whiteley styles her look with a blue and white patterned blouse, ankle-strap sandals and a white and grey fedora.

If you’re aiming for a lightweight and carefree look, take your sartorial cues from Alexa Chung. The 32-year-old trendsetter brings a sexy spin to her classic jean shorts, by pairing the high-waisted denim cutoffs with a sultry top.
