Trust Me: These 7 Classic Jackets Will Always Look Great With Jeans

We like to make getting dressed as easy and as stress-free as possible. That's why we spend so much time bringing you the best outfits floating around in the fashion ether, many of which will be made up of items you already own. That's certainly the case as far as this fail-safe ensemble is concerned. Good jeans are available en masse and at lots of really great price points too.
While I'm at it, you just can't beat a jacket and jeans combo, can you? It's a chic look that you can pull together at a moment's notice and that will never let you down—basically everything we want from our wardrobes. While you can confidently style just about any outwear with jeans and know it'll look good, there are certain jacket styles that loan themselves particularly well to denim. Keep scrolling to see a round-up of sleek but attainable jacket-and-jeans outfits.
1. LEATHER
)
Style Notes: Leather outerwear has made a massive comeback this winter, particularly in the guise of '90s-style blazers. Here, Brittany showcases just how great one can look with an all-black look, using it to add textured to her jeans and boots combo.

2. DENIM
Style Notes: Double denim makes a comeback every season. For a fresh take on the trend keep it oversized and follow Yaminah's lead and finish with a cute top-handle bag.

3. SUEDE
Style Notes: With a stylish nod to the 70's, suede jackets, ideally with fringing like Monikh's, always look the off-duty part when paired with jeans.

4. BLAZER
Style Notes: The only thing fashion types love more than blazers is wearing said blazers with jeans. Take cues from Aïda and style the combination a classic white tee before swapping flats for heels to take it from day to night.

5. CAMEL
Style Notes: Of all the colour pairings out there, you'll be hard-pressed to find one chicer than indigo and tan. Case in point—Julie's timeless ensemble. Whatever style you go for, from belted to scarf-detailed, cropped to capes, it's sure to look good with denim.

Wear under jackets, dresses and shirts for extra warmth.
6. QUILTED
Style Notes: Not just a one season wonder, the khaki quilted jacket is here to stay and looks tres cool paired with denim. Style yours like Jessica with black denim and a 'Dad' trainer. Cute dog optional.

7. TWEED
Style Notes: With the power to make everything look polished, tweed and bouclé jackets are given a cool spin when styled with blue jeans and an on-trend, lace-collared blouse. Accessorise yours with velvet loafers and a classic quilted bag.
