Get more mileage out of your jeans this season with the help of these five versatile items.
There are a variety of fashion pieces that won’t go out of style, and jeans are one of them. Denim is a mainstay because of its ease, cool factor, and the fact that it’s universally flattering thanks to the endless number of styles available. In fact, you can wear jeans with just about anything. However, my favourite things to wear with jeans are all stylish simple items.
These days, I am all for looks that take little to no effort, and as we enter into spring, I am keeping this in mind. While outfit planning for the new season, it is clear that jeans will be on heavy rotation, and I’ve begun to narrow down my top simple picks to help round out each look. The great thing is that just because a piece is simple, it doesn’t mean it’s all about basics. Trendy pieces, especially those of the minimalistic variety, fit the bill perfectly as well.
Ahead, I pinpoint five of the simple items I’ll be wearing with jeans for spring. From tops to shoes to outerwear, I rounded up stylish picks for each item to shop now.
