How To Wear Green Skinny Jeans

Green Skinny Jeans With White Loafers

As you all know, I’m not usually one to stick to specific seasonal clothing, so if I want to wear something and the temperature is accommodating, I will. This is one of those outfits. I know light greens and whites are usually reserved for spring (spring greens), but I wanted to wear the combination as we almost transition into the autumn. The reason being, I bought these Citizens of Humanity Rocket Crop Skinny Jeans in Canopy Green a few months ago just before the heat wave and I never got to wear them, which was such a shame as I was desperate to! I love the gorgeous shade of green that they are as it’s not too feminine or cute, or too masculine, it’s perfect! Plus, the Rocket Crop is my favourite jeans cut there is, so they’re a win, win pair of jeans for me!

To make it a little more suitable for cooler weather, I styled these jeans with my Allsaints Manson Knitted Tank Top as the Porcelain White shade was perfect to keep things light. As for the footwear, I wasn’t sure if I wanted to wear Chelsea boots or something brown, but as soon as I saw my Sam Edelman Linnie White Mules sitting on my shelf, I thought they might actually be perfect, and they were! I think they help to keep the look casual and youthful, but still classy and put together. Plus, these Sam Edelman loafers are a great alternative to Gucci.

Now getting to my accessories, my bag that I was wearing is my Mulberry Small Darley in Oak and you might remember me speaking about it and revealing it from my trip to Bicester Village. I got it as a sub so it was cheaper than retail and it’s literally adorable! You all know how much I love my Mulberry Lily in Oak as you’ve seen it enough times, but the Small Darley is perfect as it’s a more petite size and a more polished shape. I do plan on reviewing it soon for you! Then, to finish it off, I went for my Rado Skeleton Watch as it mixes gold and silver together, which was ideal for the white in my outfit and the gold hardware on my bag! So, as you can see, I did try to think about every little detail within this outfit and even though it’s more casual, I do really like it.

Regarding the location, as Bath is known for its cobblestones and Italian/Georgian architecture, I thought I would showcase that the best I could by using a side street in town. It’s often quite quiet around there as it’s a dead end for cars, and there’s only a couple of shops, so it’s the perfect location for shooting photos and not getting too interrupted. I love how quaint it looks here and how the cobblestones really add to the overall feel of the street. I think it made the perfect backdrop for my look. What do you think? And I would love to know what you think of my outfit! Lorna xx.

    Hey Lorna!! I wanted to come by and drop you a note- and then I saw your gorgeous post!!!! I am very hit or miss with Citizens Rocket Skinnies but my black pairs in Axel (omg I have at least 3 pairs of them!) are so soft and fit perfect. More like a legging than a jean. I could live in them. How do these ones compare? They are a gorgeous colour and if the material is soft like my other pairs then I may have to pick them up. I have had a few pairs in regular denim but for some reason they just don’t fit as well. I think it might just be the type of denim used though. That green is perfect for fall and on my “need” list. Love how you style them too!
    Anyway! I’m back from Europe and I definitely thought of you! Guess who found a Mulberry boutique- or two! I picked up a new bag and a scarf and was soooo excited, I couldn’t wait to tell you. I don’t have a picture yet but check out the “Small Leighton” in classic grey. It is sitting in my office right now. I can hardly believe it!
    Hope you’re doing well and things are looking sunny for you!
    Oh and before I go, happy belated birthday! I didn’t forget, I just haven’t had a chance to do much social media stuff. I saw that post too and everything looks wonderful! Sorry about the essay here. Much love!

      Hey Jen! Thank you! So glad you like the outfit! The jeans are actually super comfortable. They are not as silky smooth as Axel or as soft, as those are like butter, but they are very stretchy and legging like, just not as soft due to the dye on the green denim. I really like them! I’m hit or miss with the regular denim Rocket too, I’ve had a couple pairs (even one stated Sculpt) and they were really stiff, ran so small, and were just not comfortable, so I feel you there. These are very stretchy and comfy! I also have the All Black wash as a replacement to my Axel (too small now) and those are pretty much the same as Axel. I have a few other recommendations for brands too if you want it?

      I saw the Small Leighton, the one with the chain right? They’re super pretty! That’s amazing you got a Mulberry! What scarf did you get? I would love to see pictures on Instagram when you get chance. So pleased you like the brand too!

      Thank you for the birthday wishes! I did have a wonderful birthday, and no worries on the comment, I enjoy reading them! It’s like a community here anyway so carry on, ha ha! Much love back xx.

        Sure, I’m always game for denim ideas from you! I’m very much a R&B kind of girl and have had some luck with the axel rockets and the Hudson jeans in Krista. Paige denim is unfortunately a disaster on me 🙁 Too bad because I always see the most beautiful pairs. Oh! And Black Orchard is a hit with me too! Sooo I would love some more ideas!
        I’ll definitely try and get the Mullberry haul up on insta when I get a chance. The scarf is also beautiful, it is a brown polkadot silk square that is rather large and light as air.
        Talk soon! xo

          In that case, a brand new pair I just got are from FRAME and I LOVE them! I just shared them on my stories on Instagram. The fit is fantastic, similar to Rocket but a bit lower in rise, but super skinny, very stretchy and soft, and the wash is stunning! Here’s the links to the exact pair, I’ve given you Shopbop, Revolve and Frame’s own site, and they’re affiliate so if you order, it helps my blog. No worries if you don’t like them, but I get so excited when I find an amazing new pair of jeans I love!

    Next to black and dark plum/burgundy, olive green is one of my top favorite shades! It’s so fun to style and almost seems like a neutral shade. And you definitely can’t go wrong with those Rockets!

    I’m at a bit of a loss on how to comment on this outfit without being 101% totally predictable! 😉 😀 I mean, what is there for me not to love about green skinny jeans – and you’ve gone with flat shoes too. Everything I like, really. LOL

    Obviously I absolutely love this look. I’ve been looking forward to seeing how you’d style these jeans since learning that you’d bought them. The result is a total triumph in colour, style and shape. That’s such a nice and subtle shade of green – I like all shades of green but I don’t really have anything very close to this shade in my own wardrobe and I rather wish that I did. Most of my green clothes are of the much darker or brighter kinds which, though fun, can maybe lack in dignity. LOL

    This is my favourite of your outfits so far this year – and I’m going to stick my neck out here with a prediction… by the end of the year this will still be my favourite outfit of yours for 2018 – unless you have something really amazing ahead that can dislodge it? 🙂

      Yay! I’m so glad you like it 😀 I knew you liked the jeans since they’re green, so I was wondering what the verdict on the outfit would be from you, and I actually didn’t intentionally wear flats, it was a happy accident with the styling, so I guess that worked in my favour, ha ha! I do have a couple of ideas for styling these again, but you will have to wait and see on that 😀 I think you definitely need to own some sage coloured green pieces in your wardrobe, I am loving them! And I don’t think I have anything at the moment that will knock this off the top spot for you, and I probably wont this year, but we will see! I will get my thinking cap on 🙂

      • Steven Whaley
        August 23, 2018 / 9:03 am

        Well… as you’ve just said that you have a couple of other ideas for styling these jeans then I suspect that’s where the competition to this combination is going to come from. 😉

        I was dressed totally in green yesterday, Green shorts, green t-shirt, green socks and green sneakers… all darker greens though. 😀

        What colour is your thinking cap? Will that be in an outfit too? 😉

          Knowing me, my thinking cap is probably made of glitter! Ha ha 😀 And considering you like flats, I don’t think my next styling of these jeans will beat this one as it was with heels that I was planning, but hey, at least you have these!

          • Steven Whaley
            August 23, 2018 / 4:02 pm

            We’ll see. 🙂 I’m certainly not opposed to heels so it’ll depend on the overall impact. 🙂 Oh, I think we should all have a glitter thinking cap… I’m sure everyone would feel happier. 😀

    The perfect outfit for the waining summer days, wether shopping or having a casual evening out.
    The Mulberry bag may be the answer to an upcoming birthday, also a day out to Bicester village for some shopping which would give me many good marks in the lady’s good books.
    My poor plastic. Lol

      It’s definitely a cute bag! I enjoyed my trip to Bicester a lot so if it’s not too far for you and your lady likes shopping designer items, it will probably be a win! If you do buy a Mulberry online, if you could use my link, that would be amazing! Really helps my blog stay up and running as it’s affiliated. Otherwise, the Mulberry store there in Bicester is brilliant!

    These are gorgeous photos Lorna and your outfit compliments the cobblestones and architecture around you. I love the color of your jeans and olive is sometimes a hard color to wear, at least for me but you are rocking this look! The brown bag compliments your outfit too. I love mini bags! Lol

    I’ve been thinking about investing in a pair of green jeans but haven’t done it yet, but I agree that they’re lovely for fall and works well with the neutrals and colors in your outfit. Ugh, have some hunting to do haha! Xx

    That combination really works well: it’s a fabulous tank top, and the white shoes are just close enough in shade to create the illusion of endless legs. (In case anyone asks why skinny jeans will never go out of style.)
