Ready for some fresh outfit inspiration? While, yes, high summer is still here, I can’t help but look ahead to autumn dressing—and plan my outfits accordingly. The arrival of autumn brings plenty to be excited about from sumptuous sweaters to layered looks but at the moment, I only have denim on the brain. Maybe it’s because I’ve hardly been wearing jeans at all this summer (hello, hot weather) but truth be told, my outfit rotation is really craving some good old jean ensembles.
If like me, you could use some fresh inspiration to fuel your autumn outfits, you’ve come to the right place. Ahead, take a look at the below 11 blue-jean outfits that are fresh for the upcoming season but still low-key and easy to re-create with many of the pieces you already own. From the shoe trend I’m expecting to be big to the basic shirt everyone is styling with their jeans, consider this your ultimate guide to styling your best blues this season and beyond.
Denim-on-denim is a can’t-lose formula and flare jeans are the shape that takes the classic combination to the next level.
It doesn’t get more timeless than a button-down shirt, right? Fashion people are currently partial to wearing them untucked and only partially buttoned. With straight-leg jeans and retro sneakers it’s a low-key but trendy outfit that could easily become a uniform.
Big blazers are back—and even better—for autumn. I can already see plenty of people styling one with a funky turtleneck like the cutout one from Prada.
If this is the first time this Prada ‘fit (and specifically that denim bra) is gracing your timeline, it most certainly won’t be the last.
Tailored vests are one of our favourite summer trends that we fully expect to hang on into autumn. Styling one as a top with relaxed jeans is easy and cool.
Yep, loose ’90s jeans still reign supreme. Try wearing them with high-top sneakers and a varsity jacket for a retro-sport feel.
One word: clogs. Controversial, yes, but the comfort shoe is poised to be the biggest flats trend of the autumn and the ’70s vibe is perfect with jeans and a printed top.
If jeans and a crop top are your go-to in the summer, throw on a blazer to make it work for autumn.
Fashion girls everywhere have endorsed thong sandals as the It shoes of the season (if not the year), and swapping in a cardigan takes them from summer to autumn seamlessly.
French fashion girls are all about classic basics with their jeans, like loafers and a structured coat.
While blue jeans tend to be the classics in our wardrobes, we’re not opposed to styling them with a trendier spin like so. Bright heels and a sultry knit top spice up the timeless denim.
