Jeans and boots are the staples of my winter wardrobe, so I like to check my temperature every now and then. This is to make sure you’re styling your tried-and-true combinations in a modern way, without being too predictable. This time, my inspiration came quickly when I spotted Bella Hadid appearing in three jeans and boot combinations in quick succession that seemed particularly relevant right now.
Eschewing the predictable formula seen over and over again (no Chelsea boots or baggy jeans here), Bella’s latest rotation feels like a fresh direction. Think sharper silhouettes, higher contrast, and ease of wear along with where denim styling is headed next.
Read on for the jeans and boots combinations that the chicest dressers wear all year round.

1. White jeans + black boots

Style notes: More striking than the classic blue pair, White jeans give a sharp edge to the denim and boots look, especially when paired with jet black leather boots. Leaning into contrast, Bella styled it with a black leather jacket, keeping her palette minimal while creating a clean and undeniably chic silhouette.

Style notes: There are very few competitive combinations. To make your legs look longer, pair them with flared jeans and pointed-toe boots. Bella’s animal-print boots put a playful spin on a major trend, but the combination works just as well with sophisticated black or rich brown leather.

3. Tuck jeans into knee-high boots

Style notes: This is probably my favorite combination of the three. For this look, Bella bypasses the ankle boots by tucking in slim-fit blue jeans. Knee-length boots. The effect is preppy, cool, and, importantly, warm enough for the coldest days of winter. It’s a simple yet effective styling trick, so I’m going to try it again this season.
