5 Easy Jeans-and-Shoes Pairings I'm Stealing From Celebs

At this time of year, jeans and boots are basically all I wear, and so getting dressed can be a bit like putting on a uniform. It's a practical and low-effort choice, which is why it’s ideal for January, but these outfits can quickly become a little stale. So in search of some new styling ideas, I spent some time looking at pictures of my favourite celebrities and came up with five easy-to-copy denim outfits I plan on adding to my rotation in 2022.
One thing was clear when looking at my shortlist of images: Baggier and looser denim styles are dominating right now, as not one outfit included a skinnier fit. These looks in fact all play with proportions, whether that’s by adding a boxy blazer, an oversized leather bomber, a baggy shirt or a maxi coat. You can even go big with the shoes and add a pair of chunky-sole loafers like Hailey Bieber did. Sienna Miller and Kendall Jenner, however, both opted for sleeker classic ankle boots to keep full attention on the oversized silhouette of the jeans. Keep scrolling to see the five celebrity jeans-and-shoes pairings I love right now.
1. White Shirt + Mohair Jumper + Baggy Jeans
2. Boxy Blazer + Straight-Leg Jeans + White T-Shirt + Black Ankle Boots
3. Baggy Jeans + Denim Shirt + Brown Suede Boots + Navy Tailored Coat
4. Baggy Jeans + Leather Bomber + Baseball Cap + Chunky Loafers
5. Black Coat + Straight-Leg Jeans + White Blouse + Black Boots
Next up, the only looks you need to know for spring/summer 2022.
