Wearing jeans with flats is an outfit that just works. Sure, we all pair our denim with ankle boots and heels, but when we want to look cool, comfortable, and elevated, it's flat shoes or nothing. You probably even have a standard outfit you rely on when reaching for these two wardrobe staples. That said, variety is the spice of life, right? So switching it up may be just what you need to reinvigorate your vibe. Fortunately, the fashion elite have a variety of ideas, making it easier than ever to uncover a fresh go-to look.
