What to pair with jeans

Jean styles: Staples for every wardrobe
When you've found your perfect pair of jeans, you're on the right track for finding more great styles that suit your body type. And, naturally, you'll want to expand your inventory of jeans to strut your stuff in.

"It's never enough to have just one pair of jeans anymore because there are so many variations," says Beker, who owns about 15 pairs of this wardrobe staple. "You're going to want your black jeans and your blue jeans, your faded jeans and your dark blue jeans and you're going to want jeans that have maybe a little bit of fancy detailing on them."

Even so, it's safe to say that jeans are still one of the most versatile pieces in your closet and you can pair basic dark denim with almost anything. For the hottest looks, Beker suggests wearing the following with your denim:

• Short booties or tall boots

Vests

• Big, thick, bulky sweaters

• Sweeping ponchos, capes and cardigans

Jackets, such as a boyfriend jacket

• Crisp white shirts, whether tucked in with a belt or worn out over top to conceal your waistline

Once you know what looks and feels best on you, you might just find yourself collecting jeans instead of avoiding shopping for them.
