5 ideas for light wash jeans outfits
As we’re nearing spring, I’ve been getting a lot of requests lately for outfits with light wash jeans, so today I wanted to show you five easy combinations for light wash jeans outfits.
Try making them a little more sophisticated
When I first started wearing light wash jeans, I felt like they were SO casual and could only be worn with casual pieces. I was wrong! You can add a chic sweater, sophisticated belt and shoes, and make these jeans business casual!

Yes, you can dress up light wash jeans!
Beyond business casual, you can even dress up your light wash jeans! Dark wash jeans will always feel dressier, but light wash can absolutely work. I added a chic black lace top, some sparkly earrings, and a pair of glitter flats.
This is an outfit I’d absolutely wear for date night, a girls night, to a nice/casual dinner, or any other event where the dress code is nice-casual.

Wear your light wash jeans in your momiform!
Light wash jeans are a staple in my momiform wardrobe. They’re casual and go with lots of things. You can absolutely wear them with a cardigan, or if it’s too hot for a layer, just do a tee and sneakers (or sandals).

Can you wear blue with light wash jeans?
The answer is yes! As long as the blues are different than each other, you can absolutely wear blues together. I chose one with a bright blue hue for a vibrant spring look. I also added a pair of block heel ankle boots to show another slightly dressed up shoe option to go with your light wash jeans.

Light wash jeans CAN work with black chelsea boots!
These chelsea boots are a staple in my closet, and they go with everything…even light wash jeans! Because the jeans and the boots have such a high contrast in tone and color, I chose a heavier weight gray sweater to help balance the outfit. You could absolutely do a black top or sweater, but the size and weight of the sweater keeps the outfit balanced.

I hope that helps you wear your light wash jeans!
great idea
This FYI is for you. not necessarily for publishing(?) FIRST, I LOVe your blog and your outfit ideas. I have followed you for quite some time. However, lately, your photos take forever to load on your blog and my screen is full of advertising videos that seem to be slowing the process. this is not meant as a criticism, I only mention it as I know that sometimes the way an author sees posts showing can be different than the reader.
Thanks for all your hard work!
