How many days a week do you wear denim jeans? I’m curious. Do you wear them once a week, twice a week, three times a week, seven times a week? I absolutely love a pair of jeans. I think that is probably my go-to garment.
If that were the only type of pants or bottoms that I could choose from, that’s what I would choose from and I would be so content with it. If you wear jeans more than once or twice a week then you are absolutely going to love this post because I’m going to show you what my favorite most flattering colors are to wear with different washes of jeans!
If wearing jeans is wrong, then I don’t want to be right!
How to Pair and Figure Out the Perfect Denim Jeans for Your Wardrobe
I really could just live in jeans… and quite possibly, sleep in them. I mean, it’s just my thing. They are 100% my go-to. You can definitely use this as a guide to help you because it can become challenging if you do have lots of different jeans and different washes as to finding the right colors of tops to wear with those.
Understanding the different washes of jeans
I’m going to take you from a light wash to a super dark wash. We all probably have our favorite jeans and favorite tops to already wear together but you never want to forget to add the jewelry, your accessories, and some fabulous shoes as well.
What I love about denim jeans is that you can dress them up, dress them down, and just hang around at home with them. There are so many different brands and materials that are added to the denim to make them even like stretchy if you’re looking for a type of jean that is super comfy, like jeggings.
Cabbie, one of my favorite clothing designers ever, has a really soft jean material that they use that literally feels like butter on your skin.
Light Wash Demin Jeans
What I feel would go really great with a light wash pair of jeans is a dark burgundy top. The reason for that is that you’re doing a lot of contrast and you’re making your denim actually pop.
If you go for a darker bold color that really works well with a lighter wash jean but burgundy just isn’t your color, don’t free. I have my Style by Tribe where I offer a free color analysis and get you a color palette so you can really understand and choose the best colors for your skin’s undertone.
Lighter Medium Denim Jeans
For a lighter medium wash jeans, you’ll want to go for something that looks blue, maybe even like an emerald color. What it’s doing is it’s taking and pulling those light and dark colors from the jean to really make them stand out.
Lighter Dark Wash Demin Jeans
My favorite look to wear with this type of color wash jeans is going to be more like a navy blue. And then, of course, don’t forget to add on your accessories and gold jewelry. I love doing gold with navy blue. And I’m also a fan of adding on fun and funky belts, too.
Darker Wash Demin Jeans
I love the combination of the color red with dark wash denim. It just gives your outfit a more expensive look full of class and sophistication.
Super Dark Wash Denim Jeans
These go really fabulously with a bright yellow color. And so as you can see, we’re just adding a lot of brightness and boldness to the outfit. It just makes the entire outfit pop and gives you a lot of contrast and makes you look bright and happy. Who doesn’t love that?
There are so many denim choices from super light to deep blue – figuring out what colors to wear with your jeans can sometimes be challenging but I’m hopeful that these denim style tips can help!
