It seems like an age-old fashion question by now: Are skinny jeans in or out? Well, as we went over recently using our own data of what denim styles people are actually buying, it's clear that skinnies will always hold strong. Sure, straight-leg fits and wider cropped styles are popular among the style set, but slimmer jeans continue to reign supreme.
To further prove the power of the skinnies, we turned to the IG feeds of some of the coolest fashion girls and uncovered a slew of on-trend ensembles featuring the denim style. Keep scrolling to check out nine fresh ways to wear skinny jeans if you're looking for new outfit ideas to test out this season. Plus, go a bit further to shop our favorite pairs of the moment.
Yes, skinnies and a white T-shirt is as classic as it gets, but a retro blazer (complete with on-trend leopard trim) combined with combat boots brings the entire look into the future.
A puffer is a winter essential at this point. Plus, it looks effortless and cool with skinny jeans and embellished ankle boots.
Slightly warmer where you are? Pair your jeans with a very-right-now plaid blazer and your go-to pair of sneakers.
Come on, will denim on denim ever go out? No. And that's especially true at the moment if you go for the look with patterned accessories like animal-print heels and a logo bag.
Remember that whole denim-on-denim schpiel above? Yep, wasn't lying. We're loving this fresh take on skinnies with the knee-high boots.
If you work in a creative office setting, consider wearing your skinny jeans with boots, a tunic, and a structured checked blazer this season.
Mid-calf boots mixed with cropped skinnies feels particularly modern, especially with a patent jacket and interesting accessories.
Cuff your jeans to show off your ankle boots and finish the look off with an oversize turtleneck sweater for a cozy winter vibe.
When in doubt, just stick with a formula that always works—skinny jeans, black ankle boots, a knit, and topcoat.
