Jeans For The Office

Your jeans aren't just for the weekend. You can incorporate denim into your workday wardrobe by pairing jeans with the right complementary pieces.

Shopping for jeans

Dark denim is your best bet for the office. When wearing jeans at work, carry a sleek, leather handbag and wear professional shoes to look your best.

Trouser jeans with a bold blazer

Trouser jeans are popular right now. Pick a pair of dark trouser jeans and partner them with a bright blazer for a striking contrast of color. Finish off your look for pretty pumps and simple jewelry.

Denim skirt with a cardigan

Though a jean miniskirt isn't appropriate for the office, a knee-length, slim denim skirt can definitely work. Wear your denim skirt with a fitted cardigan and ballet flats or kitten heels. Check out this Jeanology denim pencil skirt at Newport News, priced at just $59.99.

Bootcut jeans and a silk top

Bootcut jeans are perfect to wear with platform sandals and a silk top. Tops with ruffles or unique necklines will take the emphasis away from the fact you are wearing jeans. If you want to splurge on premium denim, 7 For All Mankind offers a variety of fantastic bootcut jeans in dark washes.
