The popularity of boyfriend jeans is on the rise. While skinny jeans are great, sometimes you just aren’t in the mood for tight jeans. Boyfriend jeans are a great way to be comfortable while still looking stylish! If you’re on the hunt for a pair of jeans or have them and aren’t sure how to wear them, this post is for you.
Below are 5 looks to inspire you the next time you want to wear your favorite boyfriend jeans this spring along with suggestions on where to buy them (click on outfit for details on the pieces included in each look).
Blazers
When you don’t know what to wear, just throw on a pair of jeans and a blazer. It’s the easiest way to look effortlessly put together. It’s definitely my go to when I feel like I’m out of outfit ideas. Since it is the spring season, lighten up the look by pairing the jeans with a solid blazer in a bright color or have fun with prints. If the blazer is solid, add a statement necklace for a little extra visual interest. If you go with a printed blazer, ditch the necklace and let the blazer be the center of attention. Complete the looks with neutral accessories and makeup.
Graphic Tees & Tanks
Love wearing jeans and t-shirt? Translate that into a stylish look by pairing a graphic tee or tank with boyfriend jeans. You can wear gladiator sandals if you’re not a fan of heels. Otherwise, add a fun wedge like the ones below. Wedges come across as a little more casual than pumps. If you wear black and white tees/tanks, use beauty products like lipstick and nail polish for your pops of color.
Crop Tops
Pair your boyfriend jeans with one of this season’s hottest trends: crop tops. If your jeans are low rise, you’ll want to wear them with longer crop tops; these types of tops still show a little skin, but won’t expose your entire midsection. You can go shorter on the crop top if the jeans are midrise or high waisted. Use accessories like statement jewelry and shoes or makeup like a bold red lipstick to add a pop of color and bring the entire look together.
Blouses
With temperatures in the 60s and 70s, spring is the perfect time to pair your boyfriend jeans with blouses. If you search online, you’ll see a lot of people wear their jeans with white blouses. I love the look of wearing a white blouse with boyfriend jeans; it’s simple and classic. But as you should know by now, I like giving you options that will help you think a little outside the box. Instead of a white blouse, have fun with a bright hue or bold print. For those business casual days at work, wear your blouses with boyfriend jeans that ARE NOT distressed like the ones below.
Cardigans
Spring season means cardigans! Of course cardigans can be worn with any type of boyfriend jean, however if you give yourself the option of wearing this look to work on a casual Friday by pairing them with nondistressed denim (the shoe choice will depend on work environment). Because it’s spring, have fun mixing colors and prints!
