When it comes to denim jeans, the choices are endless. From low-rise styles to wide-leg silhouettes, you can customize your jeans like your morning latte. But I firmly believe nothing trumps high-waisted jeans. There’s an effortless and sophisticated air about them that doesn’t translate as easily with other styles, hence why I’ve become so enamored with them. That said, knowing which outfit combinations work best with high-waisted jeans is essential. You’ll want to focus on proportion and pair them with pieces that compliment the high waist, like cropped shirts or tops that are simple to tuck in. Adding a belt or coat is another way to play up the silhouettes that can create an even more interesting sartorial take. To get your styling juices flowing, we’ve selected some of our favorite high-waisted jeans outfits worn by some of the most fashionable people on the Internet. Their outfits are so good it won’t be long before they become your go-to outfit formula. Scroll below to see and shop them all.

It's time to dig the golf and Harrington jackets from your grandpa's archives–they're trending pretty hard right now, so here's your chance to get ahead of the craze early. Turns out they also look amazing with a logo tee and a pair of light-wash high-waisted jeans.

You probably have more sweatshirts than you know what to do with right now, so consider this start of a new go-to outfit. Throw on some dad sneakers for days spent on your feet.

Jeans can absolutely be fancy if you come ready with the right accessories. We love the idea of a frilly, dramatic blouse and a trendy chain belt.

Furry hats have been on my radar for a bit, and when worn with high-waist jeans, it's the ultimate cool-girl uniform. Try adding another trend-forward piece like a shacket as an alternative to a basic jacket.

It truly doesn't get much chicer than black on black. To accentuate the high-waist, cinch it with a sleek belt.
