6 Winter Items You Need If You Live In Jeans
As someone who lives in jeans year-round, I’ve found it not just helpful but crucial to update my stockpile of items that pair well my beloved denim each season. After all, as hard as it is to part with your favorite summer sandals or light spring jacket, it’s even harder to get dressed when you don’t have the right clothing for cold weather at arm’s reach, so making the switch is more-than worth it—trust me. So just what am I pairing with my jeans on the daily this season? Quite a bit, actually. From statement coats to chunky boots, just keep scrolling to see, read about, and, of course, shop the six pieces you definitely need to own if you’re not planning on giving your jeans a break this winter.
1. Statement outerwear
Nothing upgrades a pair of "boring" black jeans like a fun coat.
2. Chunky boots
Trek through winter's worst weather in style by keeping a pair of chunky-soled boots in your arsenal.
3. So many sweaters
From cardigans to simple sweaters, this season is all about layering knits so the more you have the better.
4. Leather layers
As far as what’s trending, right now, anything leather goes. Luckily, the luxe material is not only particularly warm and winter-ready, but it also looks amazing with jeans, too.
5. Fashion sneakers
For those days when you can actually get away with wearing sneakers, you’ll want to have at least one stylish pair to wear with your favorite jeans.
6. Blazers
It's recently come to my attention that a blazer makes literally any outfit look more polished, which means that as long as I'm living in jeans, I'll be living in blazers, too.

Since starting as an intern back in 2013, Nicole Akhtarzad Eshaghpour has held several roles here at Who What Wear, and she is currently Editor-at-Large. It was a less expected route, seeing as she was graduating from business school at USC when this all began, but it has turned out to be the best one for her. Fast-forward to 2024, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was an intern starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to classic pieces and neutral basics but will always make an exception for something colorful, printed, or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a good party is dressing up for one. On weekdays, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious for dinner and trying to force her husband to watch Summer House.
