7 Ways to Wear Skinny Jeans on Date Night
This time of year especially (oh hello, Valentine's Day), you're probably a bit tired of being inundated with sweet little dresses in shades of pink and red everywhere you turn. If you're more of the denim-wearing type, not to worry. We found seven celebrity-approved skinny-jean outfits that are chic and impressive enough for even the most special date nights. The common denominator among all these looks (worn by the likes of Chrissy Teigen, Kendall Jenner, Selena Gomez, and more) is that they feature very slim skinnies, an eye-catching top and/or outerwear, and some sort of heels in the form of strappy stilettos, pumps, or boots. Other than that, the outfit formulas are relatively simple yet alluring enough to be worn February 14 and beyond. And since Valentine's Day falls on a Tuesday this year, we couldn't think of anything better to wear than jeans after a long day at the office (aside from leggings and a hoodie, that is).
Go on to see and shop seven celeb-approved skinny-jean looks that would work for date night.
