If there’s one look Amanda Holden returns to time and time again, it’s her signature denim jacket that flawlessly suits any outfit – her jacket costs over £100 but we found alternative looks for less
Anyone watching Amanda Holden and Alan Carr’s Spanish Job, their latest BBC home renovation series, will have noticed that Amanda has reached for one fashion piece multiple times—the denim jacket.
If you’ve got a spare £100 to splash out on the exact item (we’re jealous), you can shop the look from The Leather City for £101 in various sizes. However, if you want to emulate Amanda’s Spanish holiday style without breaking the bank, we’ve found many alternatives with more affordable price tags.

Up for grabs for nearly £40 less at your choice of Freeman’s or Marks and Spencer is this Sosandar Denim Jacket in Amanda’s signature dark-wash colourway. Boasting a cropped style that falls just above the waist, this jacket is perfect for dressing up or down any look for a casual, holiday-abroad vibe or a stylish, dressy look that Amanda has opted for several times before.
Hailed as a classic, transitional wardrobe staple, this denim jacket is a wear-all-year classic everyone should have on standby. Coming in an indigo wash that epitomises the denim look, this jacket is a chic update, perfect for layering when it gets colder. It is also an easy-to-wear piece that is the perfect addition to any vacation suitcase.
This pick, in particular, is your next summer staple. It’s made in a comfy regular fit from cotton-rich fabric. Buttons on the cuffs, front, and pockets add authentic styling details, matching Amanda’s go-to look with its understated and versatile design.
This gem, which retails for £65 from both Freeman’s and Marks and Spencers, is selling out fast. You may need to act fast to secure your size.
Shoppers who have got their hands on this must-have piece have left plenty of reviews. One 5-star comment comes from this M&S customer, who writes: “Love this Denim Jacket! It’s a lovely fit, nice soft denim with sone stretch and so very comfortable. A great staple piece for wearing with so many other items. I’ll wear it through many seasons.”
While another raves: “Gorgeous denim jacket, lovely colour, great fit (arms not too long), and good stretchy fabric.”
And a third notes: “lovely jacket and a perfect fit perfect to wear over a dress but as dark denim think more for autumn.”
Meanwhile, for those looking to spend even less, a similar item is available from Next for £40; this Lipsy Mid Blue Classic Fitted Denim Jacket is also leaving virtual shelves quickly, so you’ll need to act fast. Or, if you’re keen to catch a bargain, head over to Very where you can bag this Girlfriend Denim Jacket in Mid Wash Blue for the reduced price of £20.25.
