Jeans and heels are among the most-worn pairings. With only a few exceptions, the combination is fail-safe. It consistently exudes effortless sophistication and lays a sleek foundation for any ensemble. While white jeans paired with tan pumps can be chic, nothing rivals the timeless polish and universal appeal of black jeans with black pumps. Case in point: Dua Lipa's recent outfit.

While in Paris for Fashion Week, Lipa was photographed on the streets wearing cropped jeans with a faded black wash and pointed-toe black pumps. She could have added a striped sweater or white T-shirt, called it a day, and it still would have looked cool, but she opted for a statement evening jacket. The intentional styling and outerwear silhouette felt true to Lipa's style because it was Chanel and featured black trim and red flowers. It also gave the jeans and heels a mature, ageless feel.

If you're inspired to wear jeans and heels in an It girl–approved way, keep scrolling. Ahead, I put together a curated edit of the best black jeans, pumps, and statement jackets.
