Jeans and blazer or how to make the simplest combination according to street style fashion

The infallible formula for how to be perfect but not too formal. That is, to wear jeans with a blazer on every occasion. Whether it's your first day at the office, a night out with the girls or dinner on a Saturday night, this combination has gained more and more appeal over the years thanks to its stylish execution of easy items you already have in your wardrobe. To think that the first person to dare to do this was Andy Warhol himself, so much so that he received recognition for this combination that made him so iconic since the days of Studio 54. Since then, the outfit idea, tried first at Saturday dances and then at inaugural cocktail parties, has become a cult in America, especially for that "free Friday" that leaves freedom in dress for those who go to the office on Fridays. Ditch the constructed suits and welcome jeans, and why not wear them with a blazer.

And so, as coordinates increasingly become the emblem of modern elegance, more than the body-hugging dress, the "jeans and blazer" becomes the new manifesto of the office look for the September comeback: it's formal in the construction of the jacket, but becomes casual enough thanks to the denim canvas. A balance that allows you to be flawless even on the first day after the break. The combination is not neglectful even outside of working hours, so much so that it is available for an aperitif with colleagues or for dinner with friends. And to make sure you're never short of stylish options so you can keep this combination fresh, today we're sampling 7 street style outfits where jeans and blazers are the stars of the look.

Black jacket and jeans with hemmed legs
Let's start with an easy-to-replicate formula involving a dark blazer (black here, but it could be navy) paired with a pair of jeans with hems showing ballet flats (a leading accessory in fall 2024).

H&M

Zara

Striped jacket and frayed jeans
Although we're talking about a pair of Bermuda shorts here, let's imagine the alternative with a pair of boho chic fringed jeans paired with a strictly striped jacket. The lower part of the jacket is matched, thus becoming an outfit detail.

Pieces

Khaite

White jacket and jeans
The most transformative look: a buttoned-up blazer for going to the office, left open after work to reveal the (very sexy) corset underneath. The look is "end of summer" and worn with sandals on a (not too high) heel.

Theory

Zara

Brown jacket and faded jeans
This look reminds us of the iconic Caroline Bessette, but in an "over the top" version. The jacket is oversized, and so are the jeans, but the linearity and essentiality typical of the 90s remind us of the fashion icon. More creativity in the accessories, such as the Margiela tabby and the bag with animal motifs (a print that will be found everywhere in the fall 2024 collections).

Zara

Frame

Smart jacket and straight jeans
Simplicity that does not disappoint, because here we find all the basic elements of the capsule wardrobe. In addition to the classic and very elegant blazer fastened with gold buttons, we find a pair of straight jeans and a cotton T-shirt, while the stylish detail is provided by the designer ballet flats.

Blaze

RE/DONE

Linen jacket and denim shorts
And finally, the most daring look: the jacket is paired with knee-length shorts. To make the outfit more harmonious, we suggest choosing a pair of tall boots so that the hem of the denim shorts overhangs the end of the leg.
