The oversized comfy boyfriend look everyone began to love last year has returned with a vengeance for the warmer months ahead. For Spring 2010 the boyfriend style includes the classic tailored button down in white and blue, plaid, loose fitting tees, oversized cotton blazers and slouchy cardigans. To make this loose, lazy-day look feel more polished, pair any of these tops with sleek, fitted jeans and cuff them if you desire.

The boyfriend style has also shown up in women’s shorts. This year shorts are longer and have a higher rise, which makes them perfect to tuck your top into and show off a stylish belt. The jean dubbed “the boyfriend jean” or the “the ex lover jean” has been revamped and given a slightly more tapered style while still keeping them comfy, casual and cool.
