How To Wear White Jeans In Winter

Can you wear white jeans in winter? Yes, you can! My clients and I often discuss wearing white jeans in winter when we are putting away their summer wardrobe and bringing out their winter clothing. (Side note: The seasonal wardrobe switch-out is a must if you don’t do that already.) They often ask me if we need to put their white jeans away for the season or not. Of course, after I give them permission to wear white jeans in winter, the next question is inevitably how to wear white jeans in winter. The overall theme is to stick with light and bright colors. But, let’s get into it…

How To Wear White Jeans in Winter: The Tops

Wearing white jeans in winter is all about pairing them with bright pastel-colored sweaters. A lavender, hot pink, baby blue, lime green, or sunny yellow sweater paired with white jeans in winter is both easy and statement-making. The light and bright hues will have you standing out in the sea of moody colors that are usually worn in winter. Plus, it can help you fight seasonal depression in both yourself and others — anyone who looks at you will be delighted by the cheerful shades!

Here are a few of my favorite sweaters to wear with white jeans right now…

1. BP Cozy Mock Neck Sweater in Purple Fresco ($49.50 $37.12)
2. MILLY Wool Blend V-Neck Sweater in Red ($350)
3. Aqua Amore Sweater ($188 $94 — See how I styled it with white jeans, here.)
4. Vince Rib Sweater in Foam Green ($69 $34.77)
5. White & Warren Cashmere Citron Crewneck ($395 $237)

Tip: If your white jeans are more off-white or cream than true white, you can wear soft earth-tone colored tops like tan or olive green.

As I mentioned above, when it comes to how to wear white jeans in winter, a theme starts to appear: light and bright colors. This is true for the outerwear as well. I love to see lavender, yellow, hot pink, and light grey colored coats with white jean winter outfits. But you can also sport a red or multi-colored topper that has white in its pattern.
