day-to-night denim :: 3 ways

Today I am excited to guest post on the amazing Jenny Sue Makeup blog. This blog is curated by an Athens, Georgi-based mom of three who is a freelance makeup artist with a passion for helping women feel and look the best version of themselves through the art of makeup. Jennifer will be guest posting here on the Edit by Lauren blog in a couple weeks, but in the meantime, be sure to check out her blog and follow her on Instagram @jennysuemakeup.
Jennifer asked me to share with her readers some easy day-to-night denim looks. Here is my guest post…

As a wardrobe stylist who works with a host of women in differing ages and life stages, and as a mommy to three-year-old twins myself, I have a passion for creating versatile looks with key wardrobe pieces. In my opinion, the most fundamental wardrobe piece a woman can own is a great-fitting pair of jeans!

With that in mind, I have created 3 day-to-night denim looks, featuring three “must have” pairs of jeans for Spring :: a dark-wash skinny denim, a white jean and a boyfriend jean. On busy days, when you are quickly trying to transition from a casual daytime ensemble to a fun evening look, swapping out shoes and accessories can quickly and easily do the trick.

Look 1 :: Dark-Wash Skinny Jeans. The most essential jean you can own. The Paige Skyline Skinnies are my current go-to for comfort and flattery.

outfit details :: PAIGE SKYLINE SKINNY JEANS.

day look :: ANTHROPOLOGIE LUNATION TEE // J.CREW FACTORY SCARF // STELLA & DOT STRIPED TOTE // SAM EDELMAN SLOAN SANDAL.

night look :: NORDSTROM CHELSEA28 CHIFFON TOP // BAUBLEBAR FLOWER CHILD PENDANT NECKLACE // SOLE SOCIETY METAL LACE CUFF // SOLE SOCIETY TISHA PEEP TOE SHOETIE.

Look 2 :: White Jeans. I tell my clients that trying on white jeans can feel as time-consuming as finding a swimsuit. Don’t give up if the first few pairs you try aren’t flattering! There is a pair for everyone, and it often takes multiple tries with different brands to find the perfect pair. Many of my clients are loving this pair by Hudson this season. {For more great white jean options, check out my recent post all about white denim here.}

Look 3 :: Boyfriend Jeans. A comfortable, laid back denim option, that look as stylish with flats as they do ankle booties and heels.

Outfit details :: RAG & BONE ‘THE DRE’ SLIM FIT BOYFRIEND JEANS.

Hope you are inspired to have fun experimenting with creative ways to style your denim. Don’t love your arms, or need a layering piece due weather? Simply layer a fitted jacket or blazer {I am particularly loving linen blazers as well as denim jackets this season} to these looks.

Happy Easter weekend!
