If Your Motto Is "When in Doubt, Wear Jeans," These Denim Outfits Will Work Best
I, like many, consider jeans to be a wardrobe staple. To that, I often live by the motto, "when in doubt, wear jeans” because that perfect pair just always works and gets the sartorial job done when I need an effortlessly-chic ensemble. If you too more or less live by that same motto, I figured some denim outfit inspiration could be of interest if you’re intrigued at testing out a few fresh ‘fits for fall.
To showcase the looks in question, I scrolled through the Instagram feeds of some of my favorite fashion follows to uncover a range of solid ensembles that I think you’d particularly love. Here, I’m talking about everything from elevated vibes featuring of-the-moment tailoring to more pared-down outfits with jeans. Keep scrolling for denim outfit inspo, and shop similar pieces as well if something catches your eye.
A coordinating cardigan set is comfy and chic with straight-leg blue jeans and ankle boots.
A re-worked trench coat is quite modern topped over a blouse and loose jeans. Sneakers complete the look.
You can't go wrong with a denim on denim vibe for fall. Try contrasting blues to make a statement.
An oversize blazer is no-fail with a thin turtleneck and jeans.
For a forward silhouette, layer a shirtdress over jeans to keep it streamlined and current.
Tucking a sweater into jeans with a belt is always a solid choice.
A moto jacket teamed with a white tee, cropped jeans, and canvas sneakers is simple and of-the-moment.
