If you've yet to invest in a denim top then now is the time to do so because, this season, it might just be the most versatile piece in your wardrobe. From the classic collar shirt from the mater of shirting With Nothing Underneath to ruffled styles from high street hero's Phase Eight, and from on-trend wide short sleeves to Peter Pan collars, get ready to see denim in a whole new light.

Double denim is actually a winning combination right now, both for style and comfort, so don't shy away from giving it a try by pairing your new top with your go-to jeans or shorts. A fail-safe way to layer up denim is by choosing contrasting shades; if your top comes in a light wash, why not pair it up with your darkest indigo shorts, or vice versa? At Good Housekeeping our team has been stying denim shirts in many exciting ways. whether it's with matching jeans for double denim mastery or worn unbuttoned, over a tank but under a trench for the perfect transitional layering for the spring-time.

The chambray shirt is a classic for those who love the denim top look but want a lighter fabric for spring/summer. Perfect for off-duty days, this style of denim shirt is a timeless piece you'll wear year after year.

At Good Housekeeping we have done the hard work for you and have selected our favourite denim tops to shop now, across both high street and high-end brands, so you can be sure you'll find a stylish option to suit every budget...
