Winter Outfit Formulas for Cropped Jeans + Leggings

Yes, you can wear cropped denim in the winter—without freezing or sacrificing style.

It’s all about pairing with the right shoes + socks:
✔️ A high-shaft, sleek ankle boot that elongates the leg
✔️ Merino wool socks with sneakers to stay warm and sweat-free
✔️ Trouser socks with Mary Janes for that elegant, unexpected touch
✔️ Crew socks with leggings that hit just above the ankle bone—so flattering and never bulky

These are the quiet details that make your outfit feel styled, not accidental.

Everything I’m wearing + the exact socks I recommend are linked here.

My go to holiday look is an elevated top and a great pair of dark washed jeans with a pair of flats. This cashmere sweater is so lightweight. And looks elegant without any effort.

You’re not alone — not all denim pairs are created equal when it comes to this classic boot.

I’m breaking down which jean silhouettes actually flatter your Chelsea boots (and which are making your outfit feel off):
✔️ Cropped wide-leg
✔️ Straight-leg that hits at the ankle
✔️ Barrel jeans (so good!)
✔️ Pointed-toe Chelsea boots with a slight heel for those full-length fits

My black monochrome outfit hack!

#LTKootd #LTKSeasonal #LTKOver40

Black + brown belongs in your fall/winter capsule.
Yes—together. Especially when you want your wardrobe to work smarter and look styled.

This look is a go-to in my capsule because every piece checks the box for repeat wear:

🖤 Black wide-leg jeans – Polished enough for work, relaxed enough for weekends
🧶 Black & white knit – Adds interest without clashing
🤎 Brown loafers – Classic + grounded = perfect contrast
🧥 Brown barn jacket – Unexpected and timeless
👜 Brown bag + shades – The kind of accessories that make a neutral outfit feel styled

The real secret? Neutrals don’t have to match—they just need to balance.
