Jeans and a t-shirt has been a classic 'fit for decades, and it's only made better by throwing a leather jacket on top. As of late, baggy jeans have been the style of choice, but any kind of denim will do. To level up this look, slip on a pair of pointed-toe flats or heeled boots.

Take a hint from above or even Michelle Pfeiffer, and pair your leather jacket with a maxi skirt. It doesn't matter if it's a satin slip or a flowy, tiered skirt—this pairing just works. And on the bright side, your top options are wide open. If you're going with a denim maxi, you can embrace the grunge with a graphic tee. Or, if you're rocking a more boho bottom, a simple shell top will do.

Chilly days call for sweaters; layer a leather jacket on top, and you've got a classic cold-weather combo. But what kind of pants work with this duo? It can only be trousers, which have picked up in popularity ever since skinny jeans were sidelined. The good news is that trousers (which are basically just slacks) can be dressed up or down and easily take you from the office to happy hour.

Jazz up your favorite midi dress by donning a leather jacket on top. Whether it's a simple sheath or a statement silhouette, you'll look effortlessly chic in this combo. Add some ballet flats and minimalist jewelry, and suddenly you've achieved style icon status.

Throw it back to the days of mini skirts and go-go boots, but make it 2024 with a boxy leather layer. It's a look that's been seen on the likes of Dua Lipa and Camila Cabello, and with the rise of short-shorts and mini skirts, it's probably not going anywhere soon. Plus, boots and a leather jacket just make sense—it is The Fonz's iconic look, after all.
