Skinny jeans are essential for anyone who loves wearing boots or heels.  Worn correctly, skinny jeans can both slim and elongate the body.  My preferred skinny jean is slightly faded and more casual, but a darker wash gives a more formal look and enhances the slimming effect of the jean.  Here are some of my favorite skinny jean outfits.  Many of them use other essential pieces and most are easy to recreate.

1. All About Comfort

I paired my faded skinny jeans with a bright green top and a grey sweater-blazer for a cute but comfortable look.

5. Classy

For an updated, more put-together look, I covered a black tank top with a slouchy, cream button-up, black heels, and a black clutch.

14 & 15 The Casual Interview

I love adding a structured blazer to skinny jeans.  Add a bit more class with a bright collared shirt and a striped tee or relax a bit with a bright tank, a cardigan, and a small cuff in the bottom of the jean.

16.  Off the Shoulder

Get ready for the fall with a black tank, an off-the-shoulder top, and some black, slouchy boots.

~

17. Tuck a Tee

Add a tee and a cute belt, then cuff your jeans and add heels.

18 & 19 Totally Tanked

Wear a black tank top in the warm weather, with heels and a bright belt, or cover it up with a tie-vest and add boots for autumn months.
