Winter is a great time of year to rock that jeans and boots look, no matter what type of boots or fit of jean. With the right pair of jeans, you’ll have months of hassle-free street style looks. For ankle boots, wear cropped jeans or try cuffing them with a thin cuff for a delicate look. Skinny or boyfriend jeans work. For tall boots, wear denim leggings or skinny jeans. They stay in your boots better and are less likely to pinch. Avoid wearing slim or boot cut jeans if you want to tuck them in. You want a sleek silhouette. Now, all you have to do is throw on the perfect knit top or wintry coat to complete the look.

Think you’ve had enough of all the crazy denim trends this year? We think clothing brand CLOSED will provide some relief with their range of wearable denim from top to bottom. Maintaining a bit of color in its range of jeans, cotton pants and separates, you’ll feel like you could invest in a couple of solid items that will stretch out your wear longer than the seasons. Closed is also one of the few denim brands currently offering denim capris—a perfect cut for ladies who want to show off their new favorite booties. We’re also digging the sartorial touches in the men’s collection. Check out the gallery below for all the Fall-Winter 2012 looks.

Have you tried on a pair of coated jeans yet? Let’s just say, not all coated denim are made equal. Recently, Denim Therapy had the chance to review a pair of DL1961 Emma jeans in Wick. These are black coated denim leggings made with X-Fit 4-way stretch jeans, so you don’t have to suffer to look great. I am wearing the Emma in a size 26 with a 32″ inseam. Although I’m not very tall, these jeans fit me perfectly from hip to ankle. Even as these are low-rise jeans (about 8 1/2″ rise), I was impressed with its contoured waistband, which prevented puckering at the back. Equally impressive was how the waistband was cut near the front: slightly higher on the sides so there was no pinching at the hip bones. One thing to note: the non-rubbery coating is only on the outside, so the interior is soft.

Reality starlet Kristin Cavallari looked summer-chic-to-a-T as she arrived for lunch at the posh eatery, The Farm. She was wearing a loose gray Helmut Lang looped silk asymmetric sweater top, J Brand Ankle Skinny white jeans and a pair of white platform sandals. It’s a good thing she’s getting all her denim-wearing in done in public these days, since she’s rumored to have signed on to appear as a contender in Dancing With The Stars (that means dresses only). But jokes aside, this look is so cute. We love the easy-to-wear palette and how it softens her whole appearance, from top and bottom to bag and shoes.

Sarah Michelle Geller and her daughter (mini Freddie Prinze Jr.) were out taking a stroll when they were snapped in a moment of mother-daughter style. Hot mama Sarah was wearing a Joie Ladonna striped sweater along with her J Brand 10′ Ankle Skinny Jeans. We like the ankle length when paired with ballerina flats. Although, the look can certainly work very well with heels. We also like that she accessorized very simply so that the overall tight jean style doesn’t draw too much attention. Nice job, SMG!
