There are plenty of different ways to wear boyfriend jeans. Boyfriend jeans are a trend that seems to be going strong, and they’re a favourite with fashionistas the world over. You can dress them down for a streetwear-inspired look or dress them up for a more polished take on the trend. Take a look at these ways to wear boyfriend jeans, as seen on the streets.
1 Light Denim and Leather
When it comes to ways to wear boyfriend jeans, many outfits revolve around streetwear-inspired looks. Dani was snapped on the streets on New York City by Anton Lombardi wearing faded denim boyfriend jeans with a slouchy American Apparel top and Topshop leather-look biker jacket. Oversized sunglasses and Converse sneakers completed this casual daytime look.
Try your hand at denim on denim, like this outfit we spotted on the Stylesight blog. Team your boyfriend jeans with a button down denim shirt, and accessorise with ladylike essentials like a statement necklace, pointed pumps, and quilted handbag. A tailored coat worn over the shoulders completes this fashion-forward look.
3 Jeans and a Tee
Denim jeans and white t-shirts are a classic combination. Adam Katz Sinding snapped this casual take on the classic outfit combination. Team distressed denim jeans, cuffed at the ankles, with a slouchy white t-shirt, flat sandals, and a small side bag for a casual summer look.
4 Denim and Fur
Dress your boyfriend jeans up for fall with a furry jacket or coat. We spotted this look on the Topshop Tumblr and think it’s one you could easily recreate. Team your boyfriend jeans with a timeless striped tee, shaggy fur (or faux fur) coat, and knitted beanie for a cozy cold weather look. Here, brogues give the outfit menswear-inspired feel but you could swap them for some ladylike pumps or ballet flats.
5 Mint Denim
Coloured denim is still enjoying its time in the limelight. Maria was photographed by Anton Lombardi working a cool and casual look in mint coloured jeans and a slouchy white tank top. Complete with tan shoes and a handbag, this is a fresh outfit for spring and summer.
6 Grunge Inspired
Nineties-inspired fashion is enjoying a comeback of sorts, so give your boyfriend jeans the grunge treatment. Charlotte was snapped by Suzanne Middlemass wearing vintage jeans, a Topshop biker jacket, and brown Dr Martens shoes. A black ribbed beanie completes this grunge-inspired look.
7 Pretty in Pink
Blogger Audrey, of Sushi Pedro, teams her slouchy boyfriend jeans with pink accents. She pairs her jeans with a white top, pink flecked cardigan, and a hot pink side bag. Black sunglasses and tan loafers complete this casual daytime look.
8 Denim and Florals
We spotted this floral look on blogger Valentine from Hello It’s Valentine. She works an eclectic look by teaming her boyfriend jeans with a button down floral shirt, polka dot platform heels, and a hot pink side bag.
9 Polka Dot Prints
Blogger Jules, from Sincerely Jules, teams her mid-wash boyfriend jeans with a sleeveless polka dot blouse for a smart casual daytime look. She also sports some aviator sunglasses, an oversized clutch, and neutral strappy heels. This is a stylish outfit that would surely stand the test of time.
10 Workwear Inspired
Team your favourite boyfriend jeans with a button down shirt and blazer for a workwear-inspired look. This outfit was snapped by Adam Katz Sinding and looks right at home on the city streets. Recreate this look by teaming a crisp collared shirt, fitted blazer, and pumps with your favourite boyfriend jeans.
11 Distressed Denim
Dress up some severely ripped jeans with classic, polished pieces. Sarah from A House in The Hills teams her distressed denim boyfriend jeans with a classic striped top and skinny strap heels. A leopard print clutch, wide cuff, and bright lipstick add fun touches to the entire outfit.
