If you can't stand the feeling of a high waistline, these mid-rise jeans offer a comfier alternative, though they're still insanely flattering on, thanks to the shaping in the hips and thighs.

If you've been on TikTok lately, then you know that the go-to way to wear skinny jeans in the winter pretty much hasn't changed since circa 2015. We're talking about accessorizing with tall leather boots and an oversized coat.

This fit may not be anything new, but it's reliable and downright adorable. Go for a chunky heeled boot with a wide calf to juxtapose your tighter jeans, as well as a big trench, leather, or fur coat to add even more shape to your silhouette.

Next, if you're a corporate girlie, the resurgence of skinny jeans offers up a ton of business casual outfit opportunities.

Stick to blue denim with a tucked-in blouse, tweed blazer, and leather loafers for an everyday outfit. Or, try out black ankle jeans with heels and a wool coat for a more polished look that can go straight from the office to after-work drinks.

Given the fitted and somewhat unassuming cut of skinny jeans, you'll be able to play around more with layering and statement tops, too.

For the past few years, baggy jeans have stolen the spotlight, often being paired with neutral and minimalist tops (think plain body suits or crop tops) to let the extra denim shine.

However, with skinny jeans, you shouldn't hesitate to go bigger and bolder up above. Experiment with ruffles, one-shoulder blouses, different proportions, and even peplums. This one-exiled shirt style is also making a return, whether you like it or not!

In 2025, don't be afraid to go for vibrant hues, either. Colors are in, especially as we get closer to spring, so dress in what makes you happy. Throw on a retro long-sleeve with medium-wash skinny jeans, a monochromatic outfit, or simply bright-colored accessories like sunglasses, jewelry, and footwear to make your look stand out.

Last but not least, we can absolutely never go wrong with a good old-fashioned white button-down tucked into dark-wash skinny jeans. This outfit alone, coupled with some flats or sneakers, is a tried-and-true pairing that continues to deliver.

Or, you can spruce up this iconic look by tossing a blazer or trench on top, sporting heels, and accessorizing with a clutch or mini purse and sleek black sunglasses.

Essentially an iced white chocolate mocha made with blonde espresso topped with matcha cold foam and brown butter sprinkles, one Starbucks barista revealeda tasty (and festive!) new way to enjoy the chain’s offerings in lieu of St Paddy’s: the Pot Of Gold!

The spirited drink starts with 4 pumps of white mocha sauce, which is then combined with 2 blonde espresso shots. Starbucks’ blonde espresso has a smoother effect than their traditional shots, so expect this sip to bring on the sweetness!

From there, you can order the drink with your choice of milk – and it’s a total bonus that Starbucks is no longer charging extra for alternative milks like oat, almond, coconut, and soy milk!

The next step is to order the drink with the chain’s vanilla cold foam, adding 2 scoops of matcha powder in the process.

Note: this secret menu item was shared before Starbucks reformulated their matcha powderto be unsweetened, but the cold foam should still have some sweetness, thanks to the vanilla.

Finally, the Pot Of Gold matcha drink is complete, boasting a satisfying layer of green on top of a golden latte. The barista who came up with the drink topped their bev with Starbucks’ brown butter sprinkles, which is in cafes for a limited time alongside their pistachio-flavored coffees.

If your local Starbucks is out of the brown butter sprinkles, a dusting of cinnamon or chocolate curls could also be so tasty!

With this secret menu hack, you’ll be sipping your way through a delightful sweetness and plenty of caffeine from both the matcha powder and espresso shots. If you prefer to have less jitters in your drink, you could easily order it ‘half-caff’ or with decaf espresso shots.

For quick reference, here’s how to order the Pot Of Gold drink. Ask for:

• A grande iced latte
• With 2 blonde espresso shots (or your preference for ‘half-caff’ or decaf)
• With your choice of milk
• Topped with Vanilla Sweet Cream Cold Foam with 2 scoops of matcha powder
• Add brown butter topping

And voila! This drink is such a fun way to ring in St. Patrick’s Day. If you’re craving an iced blended beverage, I also tracked down some pretty delicious-looking secret menu drinks for a Lucky Leprechaun Frappuccino and a Pot Of Gold Frappuccino.

Check ‘em out – and happy St. Paddy’s!
