1. Weekend Ready

A timeless pair of denim jeans is the perfect foundation piece for a weekend outfit. Whether you’re running errands, going for a coffee with friends, or heading to a relaxed brunch, denim mixed with key statement pieces can help create that balance of casual comfort and smart style.

Start by introducing eye catching elements, like a striped tee and a luxe belt, such as those found at Seed Heritage. The striped tee offers a subtle pattern which creates interest and the belt adds structure for a more refined look. Layer up with a classic trench coat from Decjuba to add sophistication to the outfit and keep you warm as the temperature drops. Finish with a pair of comfortable, low-profile sneakers from Platypus Shoes so you can tackle the weekend in style.

2. Denim for the office

Denim can absolutely work in an office environment, and not just for casual Friday’s.

The key to elevating your jeans is by picking out the right pieces and styling elements. You can’t go wrong with a crisp white shirt and a blazer, which you can find at Country Road and Uniqlo. This combination instantly creates a professional look, even when paired with denim. When it comes to selecting a shirt or blazer, it’s important to go for a style that you are comfortable in. A more tailored cut of both pieces offers a defined silhouette, but if you prefer a slightly oversized or boxier cut, make sure to add a slight tuck to the shirt and cuff the sleeves of your blazer. This simple trick helps to create a deliberate shape and structure, ensuring the look remains professional.

Round out the outfit with a matching bag and kitten heels, such as those from Jo Mercer and Betts.

3. Date night style

For date night or an evening event, your classic jeans can easily be transformed with just a few additions.

To dress up your denim, start with a statement top. Silk is a great option for the occasion, as the luxurious texture and beautiful draping adds an immediate elevated touch. For added interest, you can also go for tops with bold elements like sequins or metallic fabrics like those at Sheike, or even ones with asymmetrical necklines which you can find at Glassons.

For accessories, swap your everyday bag for a chic clutch and some oversized 80s' inspired gold earrings from Harli + Harper. Change up your flats or sneakers for a sophisticated heel such as a pointed toe style, which looks especially great with jeans. The combination of the casual denim with opulent accessories strikes the perfect stylish balance for an evening out.

By changing up styling elements and accessories, you can wear one pair of jeans in three very different yet stylish ways. Find your next core denim staple and all the pieces you need to create looks like these at Bayside today.
