Wearing colorful jeans is a trend that is becoming quite popular. The trend is becoming more common with two or three different color combinations. These colors are normally bright colors, and they are normally unusual color combinations. Like purple and yellow, green and blue or pink and lemon green. There are so many options that are contemporary and chic and they can be fun.

The power of neutrals
This outfit idea is perfect for the girl who cringed at the aforementioned style tip. If you want your pants to be the center of attention, pair them with neutrals. Depending on the color, you can make the jeans the statement of the outfit by wearing it with a more neutral top and shoes.

Color Block, Color Block, Color Block!
Don’t be afraid to try color blocking. This is pretty cool. Here, you style your colored jeans with a top in the same color family, but a different shade. For example, you can pair teal jeans, with a royal blue top. If you have no idea what hue you should wear on top, your best bet is to wear a complementary color, which is a little different from the color of your jeans. Additionally, you can also do it with the same shade of color as your jeans.

When colorblocking, it looks coolest when you combine pastels with other pastels, and bolder colors with other bolds. You can also make your dressing a bit fun by using the color wheel. The trick to using a color wheel is to choose colors that are opposites. For example, add a yellow top if you’re wearing purple jeans. Since the outfit is a loud statement on its own, finish the look with classic accessories, like pearl stud earrings and a classic investment timepiece.

Monochromatic
Believe it or not, you can don a shirt that’s the same color as your jeans. It may sound a little weird, but a monochromatic ensemble is so in. Just make sure that both the shirt and jeans are the same color. Nothing is worse than brick red pants with a cherry top. Don’t forget to suppress this striking outfit with natural makeup.

Go wild with prints
If you love to make a fashion statement, you must sport your colored skinnies with a patterned top. With a ton of different prints to choose from, how could you not want to give this trick a try? Subdue this look with more refined patterns, such as stripes or polka dots. Get ready to get a lot of attention with this outfit – all eyes will be on you.

Keep it casual with a tank top
If you’re a laidback kind of girl, keep it simple with a cute tanktop. Give this ensemble a chic twist with awesome hair or makeup.

Peplum
Why don’t you pair cheery pants with an equally fun top? Out of all the shirts you can choose from, rock the peplum. Not only is peplum one of the hottest trends, the flared top will also look adorable with colored jeans. Whether you rock a vibrant or neutral, this ensemble is sure to make a splash.

Sparkle with an embellished top
You don’t need to wear an ultra glitzy top to give your skinny jeans some sparkle. Instead of modeling a colorful top, work a sequined shirt with a neutral color palette. And just like that, you have your going-out ensemble for this weekend.

Since fashion is all about taking risks, don’t be afraid to mix and match some of these style tips. Just remember that with any ensemble, a dash of confidence is the most important accessory.
