The secret to any chic capsule wardrobe is a go-to pair of denim—and in the spring and summer, nothing is better than white jeans. In ecru, ivory, or cream, the closet classic is also a favorite amongst the street style set and It girls alike. You can often spot fashion darling Kendall Jenner in a pair of sleek white jeans, styled alongside her trusty Adidas Sambas, of course. As proven by Jenner and more, the key to styling white jeans outfits is to start with a solid foundation of wardrobe staples—think timeless trench coats, menswear-inspired blazers, cozy cashmere, and chic footwear. From there, other styling accouterments, such as a minimalist handbag or a dazzling jewel, can be added in for that fabulous finishing touch.

During the most recent fashion month, the street style crowd proved that there’s a delightful white denim pick for each and every occasion, regardless if you’re running to a show or an elegant evening out. Some of the chicest white jeans outfits were anchored by prized pieces of spring outerwear, like quilted shell jackets, black overcoats, and bomber jackets

On the streets of New York, Lauren Santo Domingo was on double-denim duty, styling her Loulou Studio jean jacket with white jeans, also from the brand. Over in London, Vogue’s global network lead & European deputy editor Sarah Harris stuck to her signature minimalist style by pairing Citizen of Humanity’s straight-leg jeans with a plain, but perfect, white T-shirt. Take a cue from another street styler and wear a Saint Laurent varsity jacket with distressed white jeans from Madewell for the coolest, yet still casual, look. Meanwhile, Khaite’s Scarlet cardigan is still a seasonal style, especially when worn alongside white Barrel jeans from Toteme. 

Below, discover 11 white jeans outfits that have the street style seal of approval.

Agolde Low Rise Baggy jeans

The stylish ease of a baggy jean is a fashion crowd favorite for a reason. In a bright white, Agolde’s low-rise denim in the color milkshake should be an instant addition to your spring shopping carts. As modeled by this street styler, wear yours alongside The Row’s black overcoat, a Hanes white tee, and a pair of strappy Khaite sandals. Meanwhile, Cos’s crescent bag is the ideal carry all.

Zara TRF high-rise wide-leg jeans

Earlier this season, we declared that if you buy any outerwear this spring, make it a quilted shell liner. Like this street styler, you will find that Rag & Bone’s Remi jacket pairs perfectly well with Zara’s wide-leg jeans. There’s no finishing touch quite like a stylish pair of sneakers—and we’re partial to these from Nike. Staud’s Alec bag serves as the ultimate palette cleanser, breaking up the all-white ensemble beautifully.

Citizens of Humanity Devi boyfriend jeans

This spring, we’re all about going back to basics–and what is more basic than a plain, but perfect, white tee. Like Vogue’s very own Sarah Harris, wear yours from Petit Bateau underneath a Mango black coat and tucked into Citizen of Humanity’s Devi boyfriend jeans. Essential accessories from New Balance, DeMellier, and DMY by DMY polish off the look.

Khaite Danielle high-rise straight jeans

Navigating the ever-evolving spring weather is tricky, but a transitional trench coat is always a safe bet. Cos’s belted style is a chic choice, especially when worn atop Khaite’s beloved Danielle jeans. Pack a colorful punch with a Proenza Schouler tie-dyed top. Otherwise, keep it simple with accessories from The Row and Reformation.
