Five Ways to Accessorize a Sweater and Jeans
With the huge variety of sweaters and jeans out there, I kept my choice of styles simple with this v-neck sweater from J. Crew and skinny jeans from Lucky Brand. Undoubtedly, the simpler the base the more options can create. However, you should still be able to glean tips from the looks below to create your own outfits with the jeans and sweater styles you prefer.
Outfit #1 Outfit #2 Outfit #3 Outfit #4 You can keep color out of your jeans and sweater outfits and still make them look interesting. With layered necklaces being so popular, you can definitely take one and use it to make your sweater and jeans outfits look less blah with little effort, like I did here with this layered necklace from Bauble Bar. Next, it's easy to take a daytime sweater and jeans look and add heels to dress it up like I did here with these heeled suede boots from Anthropologie. For a bag, I used this statement style from Coach. It definitely adds something to the outfit but when you put the bag down the outfit still looks great.
