If I'm Recommending One Simple Outfit, It's This Jeans, Sweater, and Shoe Combo
There are a few easy outfit formulas I personally wear and also like to recommend to others when they're looking for ideas. A blazer combined with jeans and a simple top is one of the said ensembles. The other front-runner that I'm basically living in right now is a pair of relaxed jeans, a grey sweater in a roomier cut, and flat shoes. While inherently simple, there's something so chic and effortless about this specific pairing.
On that note, I pulled together a curation of various fashion people in this ensemble to showcase the appeal of the outfit formula further. Keep scrolling for more on the no-fuss look, complete with a shopping edit of standout jeans, sweaters, and flats (sneakers, boots, loafers, and ballet flats) if you want to add one or all of the items to your 2024 offering.
This is one of my go-to ensembles consisting of a relaxed sweater, straight-leg jeans, and of-the-moment sneakers.
The sweater half-tucked into jeans is effortlessly chic. Loafers complete this vibe.
The monochromatic look is on-trend with the gray sweater and gray jeans. Also, we can't forget about the Ugg boots here.
The ballet flats bring an extra modern and pretty element to the gray sweater and jeans.
The longline coat adds one more chic element to the easy outfit with the sweater, jeans, and sneakers.
