White jean jackets are a fun, refreshing alternative to a traditional denim jacket. You can dress up with this garment, or go for a more casual look—the choice is yours! Look through your closet and see if any of these outfit ideas appeal to you.
Steps
-
White denim and blue denim look really great paired together. Don’t worry about overpowering your outfit—jeans are a great way to stay relaxed and stylish, and won’t look redundant with your jacket. Pick out a pair of blue jeans, or play around with black or white denim instead. [1] X Research source
- For instance, you might pair a white jacket with a brightly-colored top, along with a pair of vibrant blue jeans.
- You can dress down with a pair of distressed jeans. [2] X Research source
- Pick out some black skinny jeans for a night out.

Segment your outfit with large sections of color. Color blocking is a fancy term for sectioning off your outfit with different colors. Treat your white jacket as 1 portion of your color palette—then, pick out a solid-colored top, along with a solid-colored skirt or pair of pants. As an extra touch, you can even pick out a pair of shoes in a different color. [9] X Research source
- You can match a white jean jacket with a light green top, along with a black pair of pants and a silver pair of shoes.

Black garments and white jean jackets go together like bread and butter. Nothing quite brings out the light tones of your jacket like a dark top, pair of pants, or skirt. Mix and match different black and white clothes in your closet—or, grab a black-and-white garment to get the best of both worlds! [10] X Research source
- For example, you can pair a black-and-white top, white jean jacket, and black pair of slacks.
- You might match a white dress dress with a knee-length black skirt, along with a white jacket. [11] X Research source

Neutral handbags and purses are a great way to balance your outfit. Pick out a neutral purse or over-the-shoulder bag that goes well with your white jean jacket. [12] X Research source If you don’t feel like dealing with straps, grab a neutral-toned clutch instead.
- You might store your belongings in a black-and-white clutch.
- A tan or black over-the-shoulder purse is a great accessory for a casual outfit.
-
Neutral-toned outfits give you a bit more wiggle room when it comes to colorful accessories. Slip on a brightly-colored necklace or pair of dangling earrings to really make your outfit pop. [13] X Research source
- You might wear a chunky turquoise necklace with a white jean jacket.
- You could slip on a pair of hoop earrings.

Colorful scarves add some fun contrast to a white jean jacket. Pick out a scarf with a really vibrant, colorful pattern. Let this accessory be the focal point of your outfit, while the rest of your ensemble is a bit more muted and neutral. [14] X Research source
- You could pair a black-and-white top with a white jean jacket, along with a pair of cuffed skinny jeans. As an accent, wear a pink and blue paisley scarf.
-
Sneakers and white jean jackets are like peas in a pod. Pick out a pair of white or light-colored sneakers that mesh well with your jacket. Pair your jacket and shoes with a short dress for a relaxed, on-the-go look. [15] X Research source If you aren’t in the mood for dresses, slip on a casual top and a pair of distressed jeans instead.
- You might like pairing a white jacket with a pair of baggy jeans and a pair of white sneakers.
- You could dress down a knee-length dress with tennis shoes and a white jacket. [16] X Research source

Contrast your short jacket with shoes that give your outfit a little more height. Search through your closet for a pair of pumps or high heels, which can add an extra dimension to your white jean jacket. Neutral tones tend to work really well with a white jacket. [17] X Research source
- For instance, you might slip into a pair of nude high heels, or a silver pair of pumps.
- Pick out some high-heeled lace-up shoes to give your outfit a little extra texture. [18] X Research source
