1. The Classic with a Twist
A beige trench coat, white shirt, and light-wash straight-leg jeans are a timeless combo, but black ankle boots and a sleek handbag give this look a modern edge. It’s like the pumpkin spice latte of outfits – basic in the best way possible.
2. Double Denim Done Right
Denim on denim can be tricky to pull off, but this embroidered jacket and wide-leg pants set makes it look effortless. The coordinating blue woven bag and white sneakers keep the look fresh and fun, like a denim-clad Britney and Justin circa 2001.
3. Boho Babe
Channel your inner festival queen with a white crochet halter top, classic blue jeans, and a white canvas tote. Black flat sandals keep the look grounded (literally) and easy to wear from brunch to beach.
4. Cozy Chic
An oversized camel coat and light blue sweatshirt add a touch of luxe to loose-fitting faded jeans. White ballet flats and a structured handbag balance out the relaxed vibe, making this the perfect outfit for those “I want to look put-together but also like I just woke up like this” days.
5. Winter White
Whoever said you can’t wear white after Labor Day clearly didn’t see this outfit. A plush faux fur coat, white top, and blue jeans create a chic winter ensemble that’s giving us major snow bunny vibes. Black leather gloves, sunnies, and white sneakers complete the look.
6. Sheer Genius
A white mesh top with sheer panels adds a flirty touch to distressed light blue jeans. Brown open-toe heels and a matching handbag dress up the look for a night out or a fancy brunch with the girls.
7. Baggy and Proud
An oversized gray sweatshirt and baggy blue jeans prove that comfort and style can coexist. White pointed-toe flats add a polished touch to this laid-back look, perfect for running errands or lounging around the house.
8. Classic Cool
You can never go wrong with a crisp white button-down and distressed blue jean. Flat brown sandals keep the look casual and easy, like you just threw it on and walked out the door (but we know you spent at least 20 minutes picking out the perfect outfit).
9. Denim Triple Threat
If double denim isn’t enough for you, try triple denim. A belted denim dress over straight-leg jeans with white sneakers is a bold look that’s not for the faint of fashion heart. But if you can pull it off, more power to you.
10. Sweater Weather
A cream cable-knit sweater and light-wash wide-leg jeans are a match made in cozy heaven. White platform shoes add a trendy touch to this classic fall outfit, perfect for apple picking or pumpkin spice latte sipping.
11. Navy and Neutral
A navy-blue vest paired with light-wash bootcut jeans is a simple yet stylish combo. A brown leather belt and black sandals add just the right amount of accessorizing to this easy, breezy look.
12. Pop of Color
A black leather jacket, gray v-neck top, and light-wash wide-leg jeans create a neutral base for a pop of bright yellow sneakers. A black crossbody bag keeps the focus on the statement shoes, making this outfit perfect for a casual day out or a concert with friends.
13. Preppy Chic
A black blazer, blue and white striped tee, and light-wash palazzo jeans give off major preppy vibes. White sneakers keep the look casual and comfortable, like you just stepped off your yacht in the Hamptons (even if you’re just heading to the mall).
14. Cowl and Chic
A cream sleeveless cowl neck sweater adds a touch of elegance to light-wash wide-leg jeans. A black leather belt, shoulder bag, and heeled mules take this outfit from day to night, making it perfect for work or a dinner date.
15. Parisian Cool
A black blazer, gray turtleneck, and cream wide-leg jeans are the epitome of Parisian chic. Black ankle boots and a black and white striped shoulder bag add a touch of edge to this sophisticated outfit, perfect for a gallery opening or a fancy dinner.
16. Graphic and Relaxed
An oversized black knit sweater with graphic symbols pairs perfectly with relaxed light blue jeans and blue slip-on shoes. This outfit is equal parts comfortable and cool, like you just rolled out of bed but still managed to look effortlessly stylish.
17. Retro Vibes
A white oversized tee with a printed graphic, distressed loose-fitting light blue jeans, and white platform sneakers give off major retro vibes. Trendy rectangular sunglasses complete the look, like you just stepped out of a ’90s music video (in the best way possible).
