One Pair of Jeans, Five Ways to Wear Them This Fall

Even if you haven’t set foot in a classroom in years, autumn will always be synonymous with back to school. And at the top of every must-have list for the season is a new pair of jeans. Every season brings an “it” silhouette, and while it’s fun to try the latest trends, it’s also crucial to find a classic style that goes with almost everything in your wardrobe.

Enter the Old Navy OG High Waist Wide Leg Jeans. They are not very thin, they are not very wide. They have a relaxed cut with flat legs that are flattering and comfortable. They can be dressed up or down, depending on the vibe you want. And what really makes them next-level awesome: they sell for less than $50.

Here, we show you how to style them for five different fall moments, from a business casual work meeting to a night out at a concert.

15:00 Meeting with the boss

Most workplaces are denim-friendly these days, and the key to wearing jeans to the office is to stick to a straight-leg fit (like our Old Navy pick) and pair them with tailored pieces. Enter this navy blue striped blazer, which looks extra polished over a sharp white button down. Add fashion accessories like a silk scarf, red straps over transparent socks and a stylish bag.

Upstate apple picking

It’s not fall until your Insta feed explodes with “candid” photos of this fall favorite activity. Whether you’re enjoying a ride around the farm or plucking the last good apple from the tree, embrace the moment with western-inspired pieces like a cozy belted cardigan, wide-brimmed hat and cowboy boots. Throw the bag over your shoulder to keep your hands free for more dialing (and by dialing, we mean taking photos).

Tickets for the concert in the front row

Yes, you want to look stylish at the concert, but the most important thing is to be comfortable. Start with dance-ready footwear like these ankle boots, which add a few inches of height for on-stage visibility but also have a molded soft sole. This lightweight, long-sleeved top can be worn unbuttoned at the bottom to show off the rise of denim (or leather if you’re feeling wild). Pair it with a mini shoulder bag and phone chain for easy shooting access.

Friends accommodate you

A combination of jeans and a black top for going out is always perfect for going out. It’s sexy without feeling tired. Add some flair with statement jewelry like an oversized pendant necklace and colorful rings, plus a sharp studded belt. And since there’s nothing cute about blisters, skip the stilettos in favor of a sleek yet wearable mesh kitten heel.

Play sports!

Whether you’re sitting on the sidelines at your kid’s soccer game or cheering on your favorite soccer team at the stadium, you can’t go wrong with jeans, sneakers, and a cap. Elevate a basic ensemble by cuffing your denim to show off kitschy socks and bold traditional footwear. Instead of sweatpants, try an oversize polo shirt that also looks great draped over your shoulders. And don’t forget the stadium bag (this one comes in a ton of colors).
