30 Ways To Wear: Green Skinny Jeans
I thrifted these jeans a little over 2 years ago, back in August 2018. They were a $5 bargain opshop find, especially considering that they were new with tags and petite sizing. Being short I usually have to get jeans hemmed unless I buy cropped or petite styles - so happy these are perfect length on me! Also the only pair of Asos petite jeans I've tried before. I have noticed them starting to get quite baggy when I wear them which I'm not too impressed with, but having worn them 30 times and only spent $5 on them I really can't complain!
Cost Per Wear
30 wears at $5 works out at 17 cents a wear which is really impressive! And despite them getting a little baggy I'm still going to keep wearing these - I don't think I'd have the luck of finding jeans in my size and length, also new with tags and just $5 in an opshop again! I'm also surprised that these hit 30 wears so quickly - I was wearing them frequently this spring to hit that goal with them admittedly, but I've also found them really easy to rewear so often. I used to be a bit scared of green but I've been embracing it more and all the different ways I've worn these jeans is a good example of that!
Green Jeans Worn With Black
One of the simplest ways to wear green jeans - with black! The perfect neutral that goes with everything, you don't have to worry about colours clashing with this combo. And there are so many good options - black tees, jackets, cardigans, kimonos, tanks... Sticking with neutral pieces for the rest of your outfit lets the green jeans really shine. You can always add in a bit more colour with accessories too thought like I have with the green scarf and bag there.
Spring Outfit Ideas For Green Jeans
I like wearing my green jeans in spring - they work well with kimonos which are a staple for me in warmer weather. Especially navy kimonos. Bright spring-like colourful printed tops go so well with the green jeans too! Such a fun pair to pull out for spring when we tend to embrace a bit more colour.
Winter Outfit Ideas With Green Jeans
Of course I don't just restrict myself to one season with these green jeans! While they worked well with light layers above for spring they also work really nicely as a pop of colour with all the extra layers you need in winter! Knits, cardigans or scarves and a bright pair of jeans is a cosy and comfortable outfit with a little extra colour among all the winter greys! I like to do the same thing with my red jeans too.
Green Jeans and Printed Tops
Another super simple combination I repeat often (although you can see I have a fondness for stripes!). Much like classic blue jeans, these green jeans go so nicely with a printed tee or tank - stripes, animal print, polka dots... jeans and a printed top is such a staple outfit formula and one you can continue to wear even with colourful jeans like these.
Green And Yellow Outfit Ideas With Green Jeans
This is a bolder and brighter combination - you can see how I kept it small in a few of these outfits. Adding a little yellow accessory or two, or layering up with neutral navy scarf and cardigan over a yellow tee to downplay the bright pairing a little. Or going all out, with the mustard cardigan and marigold tee for something really statement-making. Any shade of yellow works so well with this shade of green!
Green and Blue Outfit Ideas
I used to believe the "blue and green should never been seen" rule, but now I know it's a silly one! Blue and green should definitely be seen - and I've certainly worn a lot of different shades of blue with these jeans. Navy is a good fail-safe shade to try, but I can't resist a brighter pop with cobalt either! Wearing these jeans with blue is my favourite kind of outfit combination.
It's funny that you posted this today, as I was loading clothes back into my closet I saw my green skinnies! I was thinking I need to pull them out and wear them, I normally only wear them in spring but I could totally wear them now. Mine are probably almost 10 years old but I still love them!

That is such a great colour! It instantly gives your look that extra something special. Plus, you always know what to wear with those pants to make sure it looks complimentary. You are a style queen!

Amazing. I love those jeans :-D
ReplyDeleteI bet most people would never think to get green jeans yet you've shown how versatile they really are Mica. I have a pair (more slacks than jeans) and I don't wear them often enough. But I also love them with pink!!

Even as someone who doesn't wear a lot of green these are so versatile!
DeleteOk, I don't know why, but yellow isn't a color Id think to pair with green, but I love it! I do love navy with green, especially the shade of your pants. So many cute looks!

Great ideas. I tend to get in a rut with outfits and don't really change them up much. Looks like something I need to try if we ever get out and about again.

Oh man! 17 cents per wear? That is soooo awesome. What a great find for sure, and you look great in all the styles:) I have to admit I am quite partial to the yellow and green one:D
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend, Mica!
I don't know if my first comment went through so trying again:D
ReplyDeleteAnyhoo, just wanna say 17 cents per wear is quite awesome!!! A great find for sure, and you look fab in all the styles:) My fave is the yellow and green combo myself:)
Have an awesome weekend, and stay safe!
Thank you for commenting again :) Your first one went through too!
DeleteLove your style! Your looks are so versatile and all amazing.
ReplyDeleteSo many fab outfits with green jeans! I love when you do these kind of posts. It's wonderful to see how sustainable your closet is. You look great.
ReplyDeleteThese posts are a lot of fun to put together too!
Delete17 cents a wear is certainly impressive and I'm sure it will get even better! I'm definitely loving this pair of jeans of yours, not in the least because green is my favourite colour. You have more than proved their versatility here. I'm also hearing you on petite styling, as usually any pair of jeans or trousers are far too long on me! Wishing you a wonderful weekend, Mica! xxx
ReplyDeleteI'm a big fan of emerald green trousers - I've worn my own pair 9 times so far, but I'm nowhere near as good on my cost-per-wear, Mica. Your 17 cents is very impressive!
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous weekend, my dear! Enjoy your Christmas decorating!
You wear your ones so well! :) I'm sure you will get to a similar cost per wear soon!
DeleteYour jeans are so fun! I had to donate my pair because they were too low waisted after my second child. Now i need to get searching for a replacement!
ReplyDeleteI would have never thought green jeans could be so versatile! I'm loving all these looks!

I don´t think I have worn green pants ever since I have become an adult, but you make them look like fun.
ReplyDeleteThey are so fun! I do love the bright jeans trend from a few years ago, you see a lot of colourful options in opshops as a result!
DeleteGreat ideas. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice day!
You really got a lot of wear out of your green jeans and they look good on you. Although I love green, I don't think I have anything green.
