Fortunately, if you keep a few guidelines in mind, you can pick out outfits that are stylish and cool to rock your winter wardrobe this season.

Tuck skinny jeans into snow boots for an easy look.

    [1] Pull on your favorite pair of skinny jeans, then add a pair of lace-up boots, snow boots, or duck boots to finish off your outfit. [2]
    • If you want to stay extra cozy, put on a pair of fluffy socks and let them peek out the top of your boots.
    • Tucking jeans into boots looks best when your jeans and your boots are the same color.
    • If you’d like to look taller, choose booties with a slight heel.

Pair cropped jeans with ankle boots to show some skin.

    Put on a pair of cropped jeans, then add a pair of ankle boots to leave around 1 in (2.5 cm) of your skin showing. [3] [4]
    • Try wearing black jeans with black boots, then pairing them with a black shirt for a monochromatic outfit.
    • Or, stay classic with blue jeans, a white shirt, and brown boots.
3

Try flare jeans with high-heel boots.

  1. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/a\/ac\/Wear-Winter-Boots-with-Jeans-Step-3.jpg\/v4-460px-Wear-Winter-Boots-with-Jeans-Step-3.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/a\/ac\/Wear-Winter-Boots-with-Jeans-Step-3.jpg\/aid12303857-v4-728px-Wear-Winter-Boots-with-Jeans-Step-3.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>\u00a9 2024 wikiHow, Inc.

    Pull on a pair of flared jeans, then wear a sock boot or a high-heeled bootie that’s tight around your ankle. [5]
    • The tighter the boot fits around your ankle, the better. If the fit is too wide, your jeans could get caught in the top of the boot, leading to bunching and scrunching.
    • Black boots look great with dark wash denim, while brown boots look good with light wash jeans.

Try relaxed fit jeans with snow boots for a contemporary outfit.

  1. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/b\/bd\/Wear-Winter-Boots-with-Jeans-Step-4.jpg\/v4-460px-Wear-Winter-Boots-with-Jeans-Step-4.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/b\/bd\/Wear-Winter-Boots-with-Jeans-Step-4.jpg\/aid12303857-v4-728px-Wear-Winter-Boots-with-Jeans-Step-4.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>\u00a9 2024 wikiHow, Inc.

    Put on a pair of relaxed fit or straight-legged jeans, then pull your duck boots or snow boots on. Let your jeans flare out over the boots as you hit the town. [6]
    • You can pair this outfit with a long coat and a fluffy hat to stay warm.
5

Stack boot cut jeans on your boots for a more relaxed feel.

  1. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/b\/b6\/Wear-Winter-Boots-with-Jeans-Step-5.jpg\/v4-460px-Wear-Winter-Boots-with-Jeans-Step-5.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/b\/b6\/Wear-Winter-Boots-with-Jeans-Step-5.jpg\/aid12303857-v4-728px-Wear-Winter-Boots-with-Jeans-Step-5.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>\u00a9 2024 wikiHow, Inc.

    Put your jeans on, then slide your boots on after them. Pull your jeans up over the boots so they stack on top in a scrunched pile. [7] [8]
    • This trick works best with skinny or relaxed fit jeans. Boot cuts and flares won’t stay scrunched very well.
    • This is one of the easiest ways to pair boots with jeans, and it requires almost no effort!

Roll your jeans up to keep them outside your boots.

  1. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/8\/85\/Wear-Winter-Boots-with-Jeans-Step-6.jpg\/v4-460px-Wear-Winter-Boots-with-Jeans-Step-6.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/8\/85\/Wear-Winter-Boots-with-Jeans-Step-6.jpg\/aid12303857-v4-728px-Wear-Winter-Boots-with-Jeans-Step-6.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>\u00a9 2024 wikiHow, Inc.

    Put your boots and your jeans on, then roll your jeans up twice to expose the lighter inside color of the denim. [9]
    • The contrast between the inside denim color and the outside denim color will draw attention to your boots.
    • This look works great with ankle booties or lace-up boots.
7

Cuff your jeans for a hip, modern look.

  1. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/3\/38\/Wear-Winter-Boots-with-Jeans-Step-7.jpg\/v4-460px-Wear-Winter-Boots-with-Jeans-Step-7.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/3\/38\/Wear-Winter-Boots-with-Jeans-Step-7.jpg\/aid12303857-v4-728px-Wear-Winter-Boots-with-Jeans-Step-7.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>\u00a9 2024 wikiHow, Inc.

    Put your jeans and your boots on, then roll your jeans up once so they sit on top of your boots. [10] [11]
    • Large cuffs like this can make you look a little shorter. If you’re going for the illusion of length, stick to rolling your jeans up instead.
    • Large cuffs look great on dark wash jeans with brown boots.

Go monochromatic with an all-black outfit.

    Pair black boots, black jeans, and a black top for an effortlessly stylish outfit. [12]
    • If you want to add a pop of color, throw on a bright jacket or scarf as a nice contrast.
    • Make sure all your blacks are the same shade and tone for a seamless outfit.

    Put on a pair of dark wash jeans and some boots, then match the color of your boots with a plaid blazer. [15] [16]
    • Put on a polo shirt underneath your blazer for extra professionalism.
    • If it’s super cold outside, wind a small scarf around your neck to stay warm.

    Taller boots tucked in usually look more flattering when combined with skinny or straight leg jeans. If the boots are shorter in the ankle, you can let the jeans sit over them. You can also cut them to expose a bit of skin!

    That's a great combination of styles that usually blend well with a lot of different outfits. You can combine them with a T-shirt, a sweater or a blouse, preferably tucked in to create more emphasis on your waist.
