When you’ve found the perfect pair of stylish and comfortable jeans that fit like a charm, it can be hard to ever take them off. We understand. They transition perfectly from desk to drinks, they keep you warm in frigid temps, and they allow more opportunities to dress up the rest of your look with party-perfect accessories.
With a slew of festive dinner parties, impromptu cocktail hours, and holiday soirées fast approaching, we’ll be donning our denim with ultra-chic pieces to make any pair of jeans look inherently fancier. Offset their casual look with the help of luxe fabrics, accessories, and thoughtful layering.
Click through to see three ways we’re dressing up our jeans for every festive occasion.
STATEMENT SHOES
Never underestimate the power of striking boots, heels, sandals, and even sneakers (yes!) to take an outfit from casual to captivating in an instant.
Holiday cocktail parties call for high shine. Turn heads in these striking silver booties.
If you’re eyeing the polka-dot pumps seen on Sincerely Jules in this story, then these easy-on-the-wallet heels are the answer.

Flats never looked so festive. Accent your everyday jeans with these embellished beauties.
Even sneakers can make jeans more sophisticated, especially when they come in plush burgundy velvet with rhinestone accents.
A DRESS TOP
Making for one of the greatest outfit combinations, layering a dress over jeans is this season’s ultimate fashion statement. Opt for dark-wash skinny jeans or cropped jeans worn under a longer length wrap dress or robe dress, allowing your jeans to peak through as you stride through the party.

BELT BAG
The belt bag (aka fanny pack) made a major resurgence this year, with fashion girls donning theirs high on the waist atop blazers, jeans, and dresses. This season’s luxe versions will elevate any pair of jeans, taking you from day to night in utmost style.
Ready for compliments?
Nothing says party time like Millennial Pink glitter.

FANCY SOCKS
The allure of wearing any socks in winter is indisputable. But when they come embellished, sparkly, or in bold hues, they can take your outfit to a whole new level of fun. Give your socks a holiday upgrade, and wear these festive versions with your cropped jeans and pumps, strappy sandals, or open-toe mules to let their charm shine through.
Wear these with open-toe sandals for a fashion moment waiting to happen.
Insta-worthy.
The epitome of elegance—sheer sock tights worn with black pointed-toe pumps and cropped dark-wash denim.
