QuestionI'm in my forties. What color blazer should I wear with jeans and a t-shirt, and what shoes?HumanBeingTop AnswererA navy blue blazer with a white t-shirt and brown loafers is a very classic look. A red blazer can look striking, too. You could wear any simple, flat neutral-colored shoes, or even ankle boots with a low heel. If you can find one, a beige- or stone-colored blazer teamed with a more vibrant t-shirt is versatile look for any smart casual occasion.

QuestionWhat can I wear with a denim skirt?Hannah MaddenCommunity AnswerTry pairing it with a cropped shirt and a bomber jacket to head out for the weekend. Or, if it's cold out, throw on some black tights and bundle up with a puffer jacket and a long sleeve shirt. Complete your look with lace up booties or flats, then add some hoop earrings and a thin chain necklace for accessories.
