Low-rise jeans can be a lot of different things but I would not call them elegant. It’s not surprising that people combine low-rise jeans with elegance since they are both major trends this season. I wanted to find outfits that worked, and I did.
It’s not difficult to put together a stylish outfit with low-rise jeans. It’s important to balance the casualness of jeans by pairing them with elevated, polished pieces. You don’t even have to expose your midriff if you prefer not to. In fact, the majority of outfits featured in this collection don’t.
In a selfish way, I wrote this article because I was also struggling with low-rise denim styling and needed some inspiration. You’ll see below the outfits I liked, which I will be trying out very soon. Also included are the pieces needed to recreate them. Follow me on my elegant low-rise jeans outfit train.
