We've all had a long break from wearing skinny jeans, but now's the time to at least start thinking about wearing them again (if you're a skinny-jeans wearer to begin with). If you don't usually wear skinny jeans, this story might actually convince you otherwise. These outfits are that good, and they're completely trend-forward in 2021.
As Jennifer Lopez recently showed us, the best skinny-jeans outfits are the most classic ones. Since they're more of a basic than a trend these days, they look amazing with other classic pieces such as turtleneck bodysuits, trench coats, and oversize blazers. The outfits you'll see ahead, worn by some of Instagram's most stylish users, really drive that point home. Below, you'll find eight chic skinny-jeans outfits that are so popular you're going to be seeing them a lot in a couple of months. Scroll to see what you'll need to style them yourself.
