The Denim Edit: 6 Outfits You’ll Want to Wear Forever

Most of our denim pieces have taken a backseat in exchange for more comfortable everyday sets. Now that we are slowly dressing up for real-life events and occasions, we are reaching once again for wardrobe staples, including denim. We are going to gloss over all incoming fall trends because, in this post, it’s all about the classics. Think bootcut jeans that have gone through a 2021 makeover and jumpsuits with a retro twist.

Regardless of your aesthetic, everybody loves a good denim piece. Whether it’s a denim jacket worn over a midi dress, a chambray shirt tucked into linen trousers, or classic straight-leg jeans paired with ankle boots, this fabric is considered a permanent part of your wardrobe.

Though we love denim for its versatility, there are still new ways of wearing it for different seasons and occasions. Ahead, we came up with foolproof outfit formulas incorporating timeless denim pieces, which can give you enough outfit inspirations for months to come.

1. Bootcut Jeans + Popover Top + Gold Necklace

Designed to look as good as they feel, bootcut jeans are one of the many styles that flatter any body type. This hip-slimming, leg-lengthening cut is perfect for those who want to show off their figure. Its modern iterations feature either a high-rise or mid-rise fit, giving a more refined look but can still be casual.

2. Denim Jacket + Trousers + Sandals

If you don’t own a denim jacket yet, where have you been?! It’s a tried-and-true closet staple that you can wear on multiple occasions and is most popular during the spring or fall. Channel an off-duty look by pairing it with wide-leg trousers and some sandals or sneakers, then finish the look by layering necklaces.

3. Denim Jumpsuit + Sunglasses + Crossbody Bag

We love a retro moment—and what better way to channel your inner ’70s child than with a one-piece jumpsuit? The best way to get the most mileage out of this one-piece is to add layers, but since we’re still in summer, a few accessories should do the trick. Go for oversized or cat-eye frames a la Marilyn Monroe and complete your outfit with a cute crossbody bag.

4. Knit Top + Straight-Leg Jeans + Loafers + Scarf

Preppy meets trendy in this foolproof outfit combination, which is reminiscent of ’90s trends but with a 2021 approach. Opt for short-sleeve knits in the summer and transition to fuller sleeves come fall. Elevate your look further by wearing your scarf as a headwrap or neckerchief.

5. Cuffed Denim + Blazer + Chunky Earrings

Gone are the days when blazers were strictly boxed into officewear and “Wall Street” style. They have gone past trendy and onto classic status, thanks to their ever-evolving versatility. More commonly worn as an elevated jacket rather than officewear, we thought a blazer would look immaculate when paired with selvage denim for that touch of class. Finish the look with heels and some chunky earrings to make it more fashion-forward.

6. Skinny Jeans + Tank Top + Kimono

Ah, skinny jeans. Some may argue that these tight-fitting jeans are way past their prime, especially in the era of oversized trousers and joggers, but we beg to disagree. Skinny jeans are still here and considered wardrobe staples for the casual dresser. If you think you can’t dress them up, you totally can! Create a simple summer ensemble by wearing yours with a breezy tank and a long kimono layered on top. Accessories are encouraged, specifically those you can layer or stack.

Styling Denim Doesn’t Have to Be Complicated
