Jeans and a nice top. Ahhhh, just the thought of this combination brings you a sense of comfort, doesn't it?

It's the answer to every brunch, work meeting, dinner out with friends… or basically any event where you have no idea about the dress code.

And as winter rolls around for another year, it's time to crack out the trusty dynamic duo.

But this year, I'm taking it upon myself to show you how to mix up the timeless classic and flirt with different silhouettes so you don't feel like you're wearing the same old, same old.

Because we may be getting older, but we are under no circumstances getting boring. I simply won't allow it.

So here are five very 2024 takes on the trusty jeans and a nice top combo for you to try so you can have fun with your wardrobe. Go on, they'll look great on you!

1. Wide-leg jeans and a collared shirt.

First up, we have the wide-leg jean which may just be the most fun of the group (don't tell the others I said that).

They're versatile, they're chic — they work with us, not against us.

When wearing wide-leg jeans, it's important to lean into the tailoring or lack thereof. You can do this by wearing a business shirt unbuttoned with a white singlet underneath to showcase the layering. Or you can wear a more structured top with a sneaker to balance the look.

This option is perfect for a Friday in the office and a Sunday catch-up with friends, yet still works for a nightcap at your favourite bar.

If more layering is needed, a gorgeous bomber jacket or long trench coat will do the trick. It's chic and works for many body types… we love an inclusive jean!

I recommend:

Fayt the Label Axel Jeans , $109.

Levi's Women's '94 Baggy Wide Leg Jeans , $149.95.

Uniqlo Extra Fine Cotton Long Sleeve Shirt , $49.90.

Cotton On Haven Long Sleeve Shirt , $49.99.

2. Straight-leg jeans and a corset top.

Now, we have the trusty straight-leg jean. This cut is a staple and looks good on many different body types. It's an easy way to elevate your wardrobe as this cut, in my opinion, is the chicest of all.

Now, don't freak out at the sight of the word corset. I'm not talking about Kim-Kardashian-being-laced-into-an-outfit-where-it's-so-tight-it-looks-like-she-has-had-a-rib-removed.

I'm talking a modern, elevated version of the tank top for those occasions where you want to step it up a notch.

As the straight-legged jean is usually more tailored than your regular cut, it's fun to play with your top where you could add volume and have a gorgeous moment.

I recommend:

Assembly Label Vintage Straight Jean , $120.

Cotton On Loose Straight Jean , $59.99.

Fayt the Label Siren Denim Top , $69.

Dyspnea The Body-ody Corset , $80.

4th & RecklessCayla Tailored Corset https://www.theiconic.com.au/cayla-tailored-corset-2231026.html , $90.

3. Dark denim with a statement blazer.

For our mysterious and edgy girlies out there, the dark denim will always be in, and I'll forever be its biggest fan.

For me, dark denim is a way to elevate your look without even trying. It does the hard work of looking dressy for you. I'd personally pair a dark denim with a blazer (a hounds tooth blazer perhaps), or a silky blouse.

You can also play with an all-black monochrome look and be the 2024 version of Miss, Sandra Dee fromGrease. This OG Sandy walked so I could run, and for that, I'm indebted to ONJ.

I recommend:

Levi's Women's Ribcage Straight Ankle Jeans , $159.95.

Cotton On Original Straight Jean , $59.99.
