Helping women love what they wear on a budget

Cute Outfits With Skinny Jeans to Copy This Year

November 15, 2022 by Katie H.

4 outfit ideas with skinny jeans

Jeans are a hot topic in the world of fashion right now. Most millennial women and older are feeling a little overwhelmed and confused about the change in jean styles. Well, I am here to say it’s okay to wear your skinny jeans! All jeans are in style, so if you still love wearing your skinny jeans then keep wearing them! Today I want to share some updated cute outfits with skinny jeans for you to copy this year!

Skinny jeans will always have a place in my wardrobe because they are practical. Skinny jeans are the only style of jeans that I can wear comfortably during the winter months. In Michigan, winter is cold and messy! Sidewalks are covered in snow, slush, salt, and everything above! Skinny jeans were the first style of jeans that I didn’t need to worry about dragging through all the winter mess. They tuck nicely into a pair of boots and stay dry, which for me has always been a big style win!

I do feel that it’s all about the way you wear your skinny jeans that can make them feel dated. If you are able to mix in a few current pieces, just like I talk about in my tall boots blog post, you will be able to keep your skinny jean outfits feeling fresh and in style. If you are in need of a new pair of nice skinny jeans I have linked some of my favorites below, including the pair from maurices that I am wearing in this post.

Cute Outfits With Skinny Jeans

*Sizing reference: I am 5’1 and 115 lbs. I am wearing a size 2 short-length in my jeans.

1.) Sweater + Layered Striped shirt + Rainboots

One of my favorite ways to style my sweaters in the winter is by laying a striped long-sleeve t-shirt under them. It just adds a pop of pattern to the look. I also love a good ankle boot that keeps my feet dry in the winter. These rain boots are both stylish and practical!

2.) Tunic Sweater + Snakeskin Mules

Cozy, soft tunic sweaters are so great to have during the winter months. I love being able to throw them on with a pair of skinny jeans. I love how this looks with my mules, but you could easily switch them out for a pair of booties or knee-high boots.

3.) Grandpa cardigan + Neutral Flats

Another great sweater to wear with your skinny jeans is an oversized Grandpa cardigan, a.k.a- a short cardigan with buttons. This style of cardigan seems to be pretty popular this season and it’s very versatile to wear! You can button it up and wear it like a pullover sweater or you can just leave it opened like a normal sweater.

4.) Striped sweater + Camel Coat + Booties

I don’t think that stripes ever go out of style. They seem to be popular year after year, that’s why I just love wearing a striped sweater with some skinny jeans. I love how the camel coat makes the black and white stripes pop! Another thing I will not be ditching anytime soon is my tan booties. I love how the point and color help elongate my legs.

It’s time for another “what I wore then vs. wh It’s time for another “what I wore then vs. what I wore then” post. This week I am updating this pencil skirt outfit that I wore to work in 2014. There is nothing wrong with a classic black pencil skirt, but I am switching my pints from the top to the bottom with this printed pencil skirt. 

Can we also have a moment of silence for the big bubble necklaces. I loved my green bubble necklace. It always put a pop of color into any outfit, but I am kind of glad that we moved away from big statement necklace. They aren’t very easy to wear around little kids. 🤣 Instead of a statement necklace I added some color in with some statement bracelets.
