I think it’s safe to say that I’m a blue jean mama from way back when. Honestly, jeans are the most versatile pieces of clothing in an outfit; they are timeless, comfortable, affordable, and can be dressed up or down to fit any occasion. Today I am sharing how to take your jeans to the next level.
Jeans are the quintessential wardrobe staple that everyone owns, but let's face it, they can be a bit uninspiring. However, with a few simple tweaks, you can transform your casual denim ensembles into chic and sophisticated outfits that are suitable for any occasion. Jeans have long been associated with a casual and laid-back fashion sense. But with the right combination of pieces, they can be elevated to create a sophisticated and elegant look.

A great way to take your jeans to the next level is by pairing them with high-quality and luxurious fabrics such as silk, cashmere, or linen. The key to pairing jeans with elevated pieces is to keep it simple and classic. Stick to clean lines, neutral colors, and classic silhouettes to achieve a timeless and sophisticated look.

Case in point, today I chose a simple white linen blouse from Banana Republic and paired it with a pair of straight-leg jeans. Voila! It’s a casual yet chic look that will take you to lunch with the girls or dinner with the hubs.

But don’t forget to accessorize. Accessories always add your personality to an outfit so pay attention to your jewelry, shoes and handbags. I chose turquoise statement earrings, a delicate gold necklace and a gold bangle. The earrings are the wow factor and the the other pieces of jewelry are the supporting cast.

Would you share what bra one wears with the one shouldered top?
A strapless bra. My favorite is Wacoal Red Carpet Strapless Bra. Here’s a link: https://rstyle.me/+HphkSBq5QZCAQpSUOCGYMg
Love the jeans. They look so pretty on you; such a perfect fit. That’s the key. I like this idea and will take another look at my tops and see what I can use to elevate my jeans look.
Jeans are such a hard working wardrobe staple! Dress them up or dress them down. Love them both ways!
