“Skinny jeans are my day-to-day staple and I have been a fan of the style as long as they have been around because I think they are the most comfortable (particularly with stretch)—and especially when paired with other comfortable pieces.”

Keep scrolling to check out five comfortable skinny-jeans outfits, complete with past visual inspiration from Williamson to incorporate into your at-home life or to note for outfit reference down the road. And if you’re shopping at the moment, we’re also showcasing how to shop the easy staples in each look. 

“Skinny jeans can be worn stylishly at home or running errands with a cozy button-down and flats.”

“Skinnies also look perfect with comfy flat mules and a cozy cardigan.”

“Skinnies look good with any jacket, blazer, sweater, or shirt style. They are what I reach for when I am in a hurry because anything goes with them—including this laid-back moto jacket–and-tee combination.”

“I don’t know of a pair of shoes or boots that don’t work with skinny jeans. They literally work with every shoe style from sneakers to espadrilles like with this ensemble here.”

“I think a roomier blouse half-tucked into skinny jeans with sneakers is a comfortable, no-fail look.”
