1. With Jean Shorts
Venus Williams‘ outfit at the Louis Vuitton fall 2022 fashion show during Paris Fashion Week was one of the most memorable we’ve seen since, well, ever. We were all fawning over the tennis great’s arrival as she was dressed to impress in a dark blue denim set.
The athletic star wore a long-sleeved, high-low denim jacket with the front and curved hemlines on the sides. She also had on a split-train skirt that reached just below the knee.
Williams’s choice of denim boy shorts as an integral part of her ensemble was a bold statement, and we approve. She completed her appearance with a blunt bob and tapered bangs. To round the look off, the sportswoman wore minimal makeup and a simple black handbag.
2. With a Bodycon Dress
Kim Kardashian is the queen of bodycon. Her latest look? A bodycon dress with a denim jacket to match.
She pairs a dress with a jacket, the perfect accessory for any outfit. It brings in the color of her hair, and its casual vibe helps balance out the form-fitting nature of the dress.
Her heels are black—another good choice for someone who wants to look good but not too dressed up for an event that requires her to be mobile. And her black tote lets us know that this is a woman who knows how to do business without sacrificing style!
3. With Leggings
Lucy Hale is all about the sporty look. She’s got her jean jacket, leggings, and matching sports bra down pat.
But she knows the key to a great outfit is finishing it off with something that’s just a little bit unexpected—and that’s why we love her necklace! It adds a little bit of flair to this otherwise classic ensemble.
4. With a Tank Top
It’s all about the details, and Gigi Hadid knows how to dress up a simple outfit like no other.
The model donned a jacket and a pair of black denim with edgy lace-up accents by Jonathan Simkhai. She completed the ensemble with a white ribbed tank that matched the detailing. To complete the look, Hadid avoided the hassle of shoelaces by opting for a pair of zippered sneakers.
An exquisite Stalvey top-handle bag with a lizard finish put the finishing touch on her chic ensemble.
5. With a Hoodie
Madison Bear’s outfit is a testament to the fact that you don’t need to be flashy or showy to be stylish. She’s got a signature look that’s all about keeping it simple, but with just enough flair to make sure you don’t get lost in the crowd.
Her outfit consists of black leggings and a pink hoodie with an oversized jean jacket over top. She keeps things super casual with white sneakers and a black leather tote bag.
This is the perfect look for getting around on campus!
6. As a Dress
If you’re the kind of person who wants to wear a jean jacket but has no idea how to make it look good, we’ve got a solution: just wear it as a dress!
You’ll look hip and put-together, and nobody will ever know that you were trying to work with what you had. This outfit is perfect for a night out on the town or even a casual Saturday at home.
7. With a Crop Top
You don’t have to be a supermodel to look like one—just follow Gigi Hadid’s lead. With her characteristic pixie cut and tawny makeup, the fashion icon has brought the hairstyle of the beach babe into the mainstream of urban beauty standards. But that doesn’t mean you can’t steal her look for your own weekend adventures.
This time Gigi opted for a patriotic burst of bright red lipstick that was beautifully matched to her crop top, giving a sartorial ode to the stars and stripes in an all-American look of faded denim-on-denim.
Whether you’re having a rooftop barbecue or jetting out to the beach for the weekend, you deserve to relax.
8. With a Bodysuit
Jeans and a jacket—what could be more classic? You don’t have to be a minimalist to make the most of this outfit.
This black jean jacket and faded jeans combo is the perfect way to show off your personal style without being overly bold. It’s an everyday look that will never go out of style. The white bodysuit as the base layer and white sneakers for the kicks are just icing on the cake.
9. With a Dress
If you ask us, Lucy Boyton’s getup is the epitome of how to dress for a night out without seeming like you tried too hard to dress up.
A black denim jacket over a floral minidress is an outfit we’d wear out with friends on a Friday night, but the addition of opaque tights and cat-eye leopard print sunglasses elevates the look to the level appropriate for a night on the town.
You can never go wrong with a cardigan in LA, especially when it boasts turquoise buttons like this one does. The finishing touch to this ensemble is a pair of black patent creepers.
10. With a Canadian Tuxedo
Gigi Hadid’s denim game is on fleek. Hadid went for a pair of high-waisted, loose-fitting denim trousers by Sandro with stitching down the front to play up the outfit’s polished casualness.
Not everything in this look was blue jeans; there was also a white silk blouse with a few buttons undone, a handful of Hadid’s characteristic gold necklaces, and a pair of green suede pointy-toe boots.
Wearing denim from head to toe may be intimidating, as we all know. When worn by celebrities, the combo typically takes on a humorous tone or makes for a stunning red carpet-look. Putting it to use in the real world? Hadid manages to pull off the look despite the difficulty it often presents by breaking up all of that denim in chic ways.
