10 Holiday Party Outfits You Can Wear With Jeans
Just because you’re getting dressed up for the holidays doesn’t mean you have to quit your denim. Need proof? I uncovered 10 chic holiday party outfits you can wear with jeans, including one that I’m personally vouching for. The trick lies in pairing your jeans with pieces that are decidedly festive and serve to elevate your look.
As I mentioned, I’m very behind holiday outfits with jeans since I’m somewhat of a denim enthusiast. For some parties this season, I’ve been wearing dark jeans with a feather-embellished top, an outfit formula I noticed cool fashion girls like Giorgia Tordini and Raissa Gerona wearing as well. Other tricks lie in adding sparkling jewelry or heels, special tops constructed of satin or ones with sheer balloon sleeves, or a statement outerwear focus. Ahead, see 10 holiday outfits with jeans and then shop each of the looks for yourself.
Simply add a feather top like Giorgia Tordini's to make your outfit feel festive.
Here, I followed Tordini's lead with a similar outfit combo—swapping out her pink top and blue denim for black versions.
Raissa Gerona also proves that this is a winning outfit formula, with the addition of crystal earrings.
Another holiday outfit trick for jeans? Dress up your outfit with a killer pair of heels.
