Not Trainers—The Most Stylish Women in Their 60s and 40s Are Opting for Straight-Leg Jeans Paired with These Shoes Instead.

      We're nearing that ideal moment in summer when the temperature cools just enough to make styling your favorite jeans appealing once more. Additionally, sandal season is still in full swing, creating the perfect scenario for one of my all-time favorite outfit combinations—straight-leg jeans paired with thong sandals. Already, I am noticing this trend gaining traction. On the same evening, Cindy Crawford and Claire Foy were seen in this very pairing, showcasing the jeans and shoe combination that the chicest fashionistas will adopt next.

      (Image credit: Backgrid) Donning the same classic cut, Cindy and Claire traded in skinny and flared silhouettes for relaxed straight-leg jeans with a slightly oversized, '90s-inspired fit. Keeping their outfits simple, they teamed their jeans with minimalist flat sandals—Cindy selected sleek T-bar thong sandals, whereas Claire opted for basic flip-flops.

      (Image credit: Getty Images) While Cindy finished her outfit with a flowy black blouse, Claire embraced the upcoming season with a deep red knit. This jeans and shoe trend pairs just as well with a basic white tank or classic T-shirt, making it a simple outfit formula to revisit for the remainder of summer and into early autumn. This is the outfit combination I'll be wearing until the last warm day of the season, so scroll on to shop the straight-leg jeans and thong sandals I recommend.
