Winter White Jeans

Dear @thezoereport,

I was looking for a great way to winter up my white skinny jeans. Any suggestions? – Carrie B. (@CDBtwinning), submitted via Twitter

Dear Carrie,

Such a good question! We recently found ourselves facing the same closet conundrum, so we tested out a few different outfit combinations before landing on today’s fresh looks. Follow our lead and you’ll strike in white.

Starting with the obvious focal point—the jeans—grab your light-wash summer styles as the base for your ensemble. If you are on the market for a new pair, we love J Brand’s Boot Cut Flares—in the color Snow!—MIH Jeans’ Paris Skinny style and Rag and Bone’s Zipper Capris. Now, you have a couple different options for what to wear up top. For a night-on-the-town getup, we love the iconic effect of black tux jacket to juxtapose your winter white pants. A sequined blouse or faux fur coat, of course, work just as well in this instance. If you are going for a more casual, daytime ensemble, team bleached bottoms with a classic crew neck sweater or cozy winter-print cardi.

Once you’ve settled on your apparel, all that’s left to do is accessorize accordingly—we humbly suggest shearling booties, a luxe handbag, patent belt and patterned gloves—and you will knock ‘em dead in white!
