10 best denim miniskirts (a la Alexa Chung)

The most coveted and desirable item of the season? Alexa Chung's denim A-line skirt for AG.

It looks good with a T-shirt, with a Breton stripe and with a polo neck or cable knit jumper. It's flattering, makes our legs look longer and our waists slimmer - not that we care for such things. And it makes us feel like Jane Birkin in the late 60s-early 70s, wafting around Paris, writing the odd song, reading loads of brilliant books, deciding which film role to turn down next, before heading home to let Serge Gainsbourg worship her a bit more.

But, finding the aforementioned skirt is like finding fairy dust. It keeps selling out and we're finding it hard to keep up. We just need that skirt.

Just when we were beginning to reach the pit of superficial despair, several other brands decided to launch similar versions and the world made sense again.

So fret not world, we have sourced the 10 best denim skirts to satisfy your spring needs.
