How to Wear White Jeans

The reason many women shy away from white jeans is because they can be quite unforgiving. But if you usually don’t like to draw attention to your lower half, don’t think you have to avoid white trousers altogether. Here’s our tips on what style to choose for your body shape:

Jeans for Your Body Shape

  • Pear shape – Wear mid-rise wide leg jeans to elongate your legs and balance your figure. Avoid skinny jeans.
  • Apple shaped – High-waisted jeans will draw attention to your middle. Instead, try straight leg jeans to flatter your figure.
  • Curvy – Look at curvy ranges as their jeans will have been created for your body shape. If you have a small waist, try high-waisted to accentuate your curves.
  • Triangle shape – Skinny jeans can leave you looking top heavy. So, wear bootcut or wide leg trousers to balance your shape.
  • Tall – Low-rise jeans will give you better body proportions if you have a shorter body. High-rise will show off your lovely long legs even more. It pays to look at what suits your shape as well as your height.
  • Petite – If you are a shorter lady you can get away with most jean styles. To lengthen your legs, try super skinny or high-waisted jeans.
  • Hourglass – Again most jean styles will suit you. Wide-legged trousers will enhance your waist, while skinny jeans will show off your curves.

White Jeans in Spring/Summer

Jeans aren’t always the most comfortable thing to wear as the weather gets warmer. But white jeans in the sunshine are just so stylish. Wide leg jeans are a great summer look, and you’ll be cooler than if you were wearing skinny jeans. These ripped boyfriend jeans from H&M are also a good option if you are buying white jeans to take you from spring into summer.

If you really don’t feel like wearing white jeans in summer, you could wear a pair of white denim shorts to give the same effect. You can stand out on the beach with a pair of shorts over your bikini. Or, for a more nautical look, try them with a striped t-shirt.

White Jeans in Autumn/Winter

Taking the white jean trend into the colder months, you should be looking at layering. Your white jeans in winter should be styled with an oversized jumper, or even a trench coat, with a knitted scarf. If you are not sure what to wear with white skinny jeans, winter is the season to get them out. Style them with knee-high boots for a cosy winter look.

How to Style White Jeans

Once you’ve chosen the right jeans for you, you’ll want to put together some white jean outfits for your wardrobe. From the right tops to wear with white jeans, to shoes and accessories, don’t worry: we’ve got it covered.

Tops to Wear with White Jeans

  • Crop tops are on trend at the moment. Wear with high-waisted skinny jeans for a chic, sexy look.
  • For a more sophisticated look, wear your white jeans with a blazer. Straight-leg jeans work best for this look as they are smarter.
  • If you want a simple white trouser outfit, pair your jeans with a simple t-shirt. Ripped, mom jeans are great with this look as the focus is on them. To glam it up, add some simple accessories.

Best Colours to Match with White Jeans

Nothing matches with white like white. For the ultimate white jean look, wear white from head to toe: one of our favourite all white outfit ideas is layering up several shades of white and grey. If you’re not comfortable wearing all white, you should try nude and pastel colours like pale pinks and beiges.

If you’re used to wearing black jeans, it’s time to switch it up. A white jeans black top combo will create a classic monochrome look; try an oversized black and white checked shirt on casual days, or a smart blouse with black shoes for work or more formal occasions.

If you’re feeling brave, white is the perfect base to add a splash of colour. Neon colours are always popular in summer, but don’t go too far with the bright colours. Choose one statement bright coloured piece and keep the rest of your outfit neutral.
