Kendall Jenner Just Wore the Jeans and Boot Combination That Makes Winter Outfits Look Much More Elevated

When your top priority is staying warm, it’s easy for the pursuit of a sleek, elegant outfit to fall by the wayside. After layering upon layering, even the most well-considered outfit can start to feel a little bulky. That’s why I always pay close attention to the smaller styling details that bring polish and structure to a look, no matter how many textures, tones, or layers are involved. Clearly on the same wavelength, Kendall Jenner just demonstrated exactly how easy this can be, sharpening up her winter ensemble with a simple jeans-and-shoe pairing that made her cosy outfit look immediately more elevated.

Rather than stepping into a pair of puddle or baggy jeans that—though I love—can feel a touch heavy when worn with multiple winter layers, Kendall opted for a sleek pair of bootcut jeans teamed with pointed-toe boots. The clever combination introduced a sense of length and refinement to her silhouette, as the subtle flare of the denim met with the sharp line of the shoe. Despite making up only a small fraction of the outfit, this pairing gave her look a dose of elegance that looser denim or rounded-toe shoes simply couldn’t achieve.

Keeping the rest of her outfit pared back, Kendall wrapped up in a belted black coat layered over a crisp white T-shirt, finishing with a casual baseball cap, dark sunglasses and a grey scarf draped around her neck. Undone yet naturally chic, Jenner’s look feels attainable and timeless, as well as perfectly in tune with the season ahead.
