Denim Diary: 5 Shoes and Jeans Combos for a Winning Match Every Time

by

FLARED JEANS

Flared silhouettes create the illusion of long legs while complimenting your curves. To maximize the style’s elongating power, pair the ‘70s silhouette with pointed pumps that will accentuate the streamlined aesthetic.

SKINNY JEANS

The skinny jean is a versatile closet staple that flatters an array of body types. For an off-duty look, pair your skinnies with pointed leather flats or slip-on sneakers. Take your look from day to night by switching your casual shoes for a pair of strappy sandals. Avoid clunky soles as they will disrupt the lean line.

BOYFRIEND JEANS

Relaxed boyfriend jeans instantly convey a laidback feel and are considered to be a go-to silhouette for weekend dressing. Counter balance the low-key aesthetic with a structured shoe to add some polish to an understated look.

CROPPED

Try on-trend denim designs like the cropped flare silhouette—bonus points if the hemline is frayed—with bold shoes. Elevate your personal style with footwear featuring chunky heels, lace-up iterations, and vibrant colors. Try an embellished ankle strap sandal to fill in in the blank between the hemline and foot.

BOOTCUT

The denim classic that clings to the knee before flaring out towards the ankle can mesh with a variety of shoes in your wardrobe. Like the name entails, ankle boots—as well as either closed or open-toe heels—are a great shoe and bootcut jean combination. Make sure the hemline falls past mid-heel and exposes the front part of the shoe for a sleek look that gives you height.
