Sure, skinny jeans can be polarizing, but they're really a staple silhouette at this point. And yes, many of us (celebs included) still reach for them. That said, it's non-skinny jeans—straight-leg cuts and relaxed silhouettes—that many A-listers are gravitating toward for their forward nature. And after scrolling through a range of street style photos, I noticed that there are a few modern yet classic pieces that many celebs wear with their favorite non-skinny jeans.
Below, you'll uncover a gallery of the exact staples celebs pair with loose jeans. You'll find everything from Hailey Bieber's go-to uniform to a standout look from Amal Clooney. Oh, and if you want to add something fresh to your wardrobe, there's a smattering of shopping inspiration as well.
1. Blazers
You can't deny the power of a blazer to bring instant polish to any ensemble, including a denim look. Be it a modern longline silhouette or a more cropped pick, the trusty blazer is a go-to among celebs.
Amal Clooney: Gianvito Rossi heels
Emily Ratajkowski: Jimmy Choo boots
Shop blazers:
This oversized cut is perfect.
I love this brown leather blazer for a 90s look.
For a summery look, this blush pink will do just the trick. Plus, it comes in sizes XXS to 4XL - thanks Mango.

A classic tweed style will easily elevate jeans. Just add white strappy heels.

2. Tank Tops
I think we can all agree that jeans and a tank make a no-fail combo. The look is especially timeless when worn with just about any shoe style from loafers to sneakers.
Naomie Harris: Levi's jeans
Kendall Jenner: The Row bag and loafers
Shop tanks:
A classic tank top will be the base of plenty of outfits.
This beige shade will compliment blue jeans.

The light wash adds a relaxed and modern feel.
3. Leather Jackets
Leather moto and bomber jackets have been around for so long (earning that classic peg) but entered the spotlight in a more noteworthy way this year in modern cuts and shapes. Leather and loose denim are just cool together.
Hailey Bieber: Balenciaga jacket and hat; Marni loafers
Shop jackets:
A timeless essential.
All Saints is known for its leather jackets.
This soft-as-butter leather jacket is the perfect finishing touch to your looks.
If you're looking for a change from the classic biker jacket, this relaxed shape gives a vintage touch.
This oversized boyfriend fit is so good.
Shop jeans:
