“I suggest a chunky loafer when my clients ask for a trendy shoe to wear with their favorite jeans. Loafers are comfortable and versatile. Plus, it’s a fun way to channel the ’90s. Try adding a white sock and chunky sweater to complete the look.” — Sandy Koszarek

“Chelsea boots continue to trend. I suggest my clients wear them with their favorite straight or wide-leg jeans.”—  Koszarek

“White sneakers are a wardrobe essential and can be worn with any style of jeans. Layer a wool coat and scarf for a cool and effortless look.” — Koszarek

“I suggest my clients wear a square-toe boot with straight or wide-leg jeans. These boots are chic and easily elevate every look.” — Koszarek

“I’m a fan of clogs, so I suggest my clients wear them too. Try wearing them with straight jeans. Add a sock for a warm and trendy look.” — Koszarek
