Flip-Flops Are Chic With Jeans, But Stylish People Are Also Wearing Them With This Pant Trend

Flip-flops are obviously a forever summer staple (re: beach essential, etc.). But this season, in particular, the sandal silhouette is one of the key shoe trends. Both fashion people and celebrities are wearing flip-flops out and about, whether it's an affordable option or one of the designer iterations from brands like The Row. Styling-wise, the fashion crowd is wearing flip-flops with a range of pieces, including relaxed jeans. Kendall Jenner notably wore her go-to flip-flops with dark-wash jeans to complete the ultimate lazy-luxury ensemble with a blue button-up shirt, white tee, and Polo Ralph Lauren baseball hat.
I personally love loose jeans with flip-flops, but as I recently scrolled through my Saved folder of outfit ideas on Instagram, I noticed that some of the most stylish people I follow are also styling flip-flops with relaxed white pants. This is a great alternative to denim if you want something lighter and fresh. The styles run the gamut from drawstring trousers to linen silhouettes to cotton styles.
Below, you'll see how fashion people are wearing flip-flops with white trousers, along with shopping recommendations.
This is one of my favorite recent looks with the monochromatic vibe, featuring a white polo and wide-leg pants. The red flip-flops give that pop of color.
The plaid jacket is impossibly chic styled with the simple top and white pants. The white flip-flops tie the look together flawlessly.
Keep it simple yet elevated with a black blouse, white trousers, and those trusty flip-flops.
The cropped white pants are a great choice to show off the flip-flops with either a lightweight knit or tee.
