30 Ways To Wear: Grey Skinny Jeans
These jeans are overdue a post - I was hoping I'd hit 30 wears with them soon and was surprised I'd managed 34 wears of them already! They do go with so much. Like a classic blue skinny jean, I find they go with everything. With these in my wardrobe I'm finding I'm not missing stepping away from the blue jeans at all!
Cost Per Wear
Cost per wear is a tricky one to calculate on these - as they were a gift from a family member on a day out during my 6 months without shopping challenge. Based on the note when I first wore them that there was a 40% off sale on they would have been $59.99, reduced from $99.99 full price. I'm not completely sure though as I didn't buy them myself! At 34 wears so far that's $1.76 per wear. If I should even be calculating that on something I didn't buy, really it's $0 per wear for me!
These grey skinny jeans have the perfect amount of stretch so that they have constantly been the most comfortable jeans, even though I've had them 3 years. They fit so nicely but don't get baggy, and because they go with everything and are so comfortable they were one of the pairs I took with me on our Europe trip. It's easy to see why these 'Cecile' jeans sold out so quickly, and I'm a little upset that Jeanswest haven't created a similar pair of jeans since. They are so soft! Excited to share 30 of my favourite ways I've worn them.
Grey Skinny Jeans With Prints
A basic grey pair of jeans goes with everything really, as you'll see in the rest of these pics! The best thing about classic denim is a neutral grey is you can pair it with any print or colour. Printed tops, kimonos or scarves work well with plain jeans, and you can clearly see I especially love wearing stripes with these!
Grey Jeans In Monochrome Outfits
These are not all completely monochrome outfits as it's hard for me to resist adding a little colour here and there with accessories! I do like these mostly monochromatic outfits as it shows that other neutrals like black, grey and white work really well with grey jeans. You can add in a pop of colour with accessories as I like to do, or keep it simple and stay completely monochromatic.
Grey Skinny Jeans With Blue
As I said above, every colour looks so good with these jeans! So I wanted to call out some of my favourites, and blue is one of the best! No matter if it's a blue scarf or top or bag...these grey jeans work well with any shade of blue, from a little too a lot and more muted tones to bright cobalt. The brighter blues really pop!
Grey Jeans With Orange
Orange is a pretty statement colour to wear in any shade, although it's one I have been enjoying buying and wearing more of lately. With a bright orange piece in your outfit a neutral grey pair of skinny jeans is a good base to stop things feeling too bright or over the top, especially if you are just easing into the orange colour!
Red And Grey Skinny Jeans Outfits
While red and black can seem a bit harsh sometimes, red and grey go so well together! When I wear these jeans in cooler weather I like adding in red layers for a pop of colour or warmth - something small like a red tee or shoes, or bigger and bolder with a red cardigan!
Yellow and Grey Skinny Jeans Outfits
Yellow and grey is another favourite combination of mine - as you can see I do really enjoy wearing my mustard cardigan and Rebecca Minkoff micro Regan bag with these grey skinny jeans! As with the other colours above you can keep it small with a single pop of yellow like a yellow top, or a bit brighter with two yellow pieces like a bag and cardigan combination.
Adding Colour to Grey Skinny Jeans With Layers And Accessories
As you've seen above these jeans really get worn a lot in the cooler weather when I can add extra layers. The neutral colour means they never clash with whatever I want to wear. It also means I feel confident adding even more colours into my outfits. Something small like a purple scarf, or bigger with a pink scarf and bag, magenta cardigan and purple accessories, or even a teal bag and scarf with a mustard cardigan. There is no colour combination I haven't liked with these jeans, they are such a staple! You really can wear them with anything.

DeleteGrey really is a perfect color for jeans. Just as versatile as blue jeans in my opinion! I should get myself a new pair, I had a pair from Sass & Bide years ago but I outgrew them, haha!

Grey is the perfect neutral that goes with everything! These jeans were a great gift, and are a wardrobe basic that you have gotten a lot of wear from. I especially like them combined with the yellow and orange, for a nice pop of contrasting color. Hope you have a good week and thanks for the link up!
ReplyDeleteSo many great outfits!! Have a great week!!

They really do go with everything!
DeleteLove all way the ways you styled it:) I love my grey jeggings because of exactly what you said...it goes with everything!
ReplyDeleteYou always A-Maze me with your 30 wears. I think I like them with yellow/ mustard the best.
ReplyDeleteI just put some skinny jeans / gray in my shopping cart online right before I saw this - its like you're telling me to hit that PURCHASE button :)

I'm very impressed that you've worn these grey skinnies over 30 times, and I wouldn't be at all surprised if they reach a multiple of this eventually. They must be even more versatile - and look far more interesting! - than blue jeans. I'm sure you won't be surprised if I tell you I'm loving the colourful looks you've created with them the most, especially those with yellow, orange and red! Have a great week, Mica! xxx
ReplyDeleteThey do make it easy to wear with bright colours - they are a great neutral!
DeleteThis post is making me wonder why I don't have a pair of gray skinnies in my closet! They really do go with everything, but something about the gray paired with red is so pretty!
ReplyDeleteThe outfits with the orange and yellow are my favourites - the jeans really allow the colours to shine there. Grey is such a good neutral that way, and good all year round too. Well done on your 30 wears, Mica!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the link-up - I'll be there shortly. :)
Great styling :-D
ReplyDeleteI love gray skinny jeans too—they do go with everything, just as much as blue jeans!
ReplyDeleteCheryl Shops | www.cherylshops.net
I love all the ways you have styled these skinny grey jeans. They are such a great basic, aren't they. I like how you paired them with monochrome, neutrals and blue but my favourite looks are those where you wore them with orange, yellow and red items and accents.
ReplyDeleteYou look so darling in all these looks, Mica! I love gray jeans too. I find they are quite versatile and change up my style from my everyday blue jeans. :)

I do think that grey jeans are overall such a fabulous option!! In fact, I'm wearing some next week on the blog. They are great for winter yet not as dark as black.
ReplyDeleteXOXO

it is amazing how versatile these jeans are and how creative you are with making them work so hard. Have a great week ahead

I'll be saving quite a few of these outfits for later! I never wear my grey jeans and it's to bad because I know they can be so versatile! Thanks for all this fabulous inspiration!
ReplyDeleteGlad I could inspire you!
DeleteGreat styles as usual! I prefer the ones where you have paired grey jeans with red and yellow.

Love seeing so many cute outfits, Mica! Grey jeans definitely are a staple. I have a pair of floral ones and a pair with bedazzles on the knees, but I actually don't wear either that much. And I never know what to do with cost per wear when the item is a gift, either! Should I say it was $0? I don't know! And with sale items, do you use the sale price for your cost per wear or do you use the original price?
ReplyDeleteHope your week is off to a great start!
Miles of smiles,

it's so hard calculating cost per wear on a gift! I could only guess the price as I don't have a receipt or order details to look up.
DeleteYou certainly prove how useful grey skinny jeans can be, great styling. Not sure what I did with my photo when I linked , sorry about that. Many thanks for your link up, enjoy your week Mica.
ReplyDeleteThank you for linking up still though :)
DeleteYou do such a good job on the cost per wear thing! And the skinnys look very cool! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteLoved the way you styled grey skinny jeans... thanks for sharing dear :-)

They are gorgeous and versatile. I love how much wear you are able to get from them! It is also wonderful that they don't become baggy. There is nothing more frustrating than a pair of pants that loses it's stretch and shape the longer you wear them.
ReplyDeleteYes they are really good quality!
Deletethose are lovely outfit ideas! i think grey jeans is such a great wardrobe staple!
ReplyDeleteOh I haven`t worn a grey jeans for a long while but this post really made me want one haha :)

I don´t think I have a pair of grey jeans, mine are dark blue, light blue and black.
ReplyDeleteBut I totally understand why you are upset that they are discontinued - that is really annoying when you find something you really enjoy.
Yes I wish I could get more in other colours!
DeleteWow! That’s a lot of wears without repeating an outfit! The gray skinny jeans with yellow were my favorites, but you’re right they look good with every color.

Amazing jeans! I don't have grey skinny, so I would love to get them soon.
ReplyDeleteI agree that grey skinny is better than black skinny with a red item!
