Although, just about anything pairs flawlessly with them given the classic nature of the cut.
Keep scrolling to check out the trend-forward basics fashion people will wear with skinny and slim-straight jeans in 2024, as well as shopping inspiration.
1. White Button-Down Shirt

2. Striped Knit
Style Notes: The fashion crowd can't get enough of striped jumpers right now. Team your favourite silhouette with skinny jeans and you're set.
The long fit makes it perfect for layering over skinny jeans.
The lime green hem is a surprising—and welcome—touch.
So many influencers own this exact jumper.
I love the button details around the ankle.
Such a flattering fit.
3. Double-Breasted Blazer
Style Notes: For a polished silhouette, consider tossing on a double-breasted blazer over a simple top with your go-to jeans.
Looks equally cool worn open or buttoned up.
This would instantly elevate your skinnies.
For a vintage-inspired look.
So many of our editors love Mother denim.
The frayed hem is a great touch.

Style Notes: A trench coat will bring a sleek twist to any look. The sweater-and-blouse combo with skinny jeans and heels is also notable here.
A classic that you'll use for years to come.
This also comes in a burgundy and forest green.
