If you’re one of the lucky ones who can wear jeans to work (even if it’s just on Friday) you’ll love this portion of the winter workwear capsule. In this post, I’m sharing six winter work outfits built around jeans. I chose a relaxed straight style with a dark wash for the capsule, but you can recreate these outfits with straight, bootcut or flare jeans as well!
These looks are part of my 2026 Winter Workwear Capsule for Petites, if you’re looking for outfits without jeans, be sure to check out the other posts in this series.

Jeans Styled Six Ways: 2026 Winter Workwear Capsule
My Sizing: I’m 4’10”, and my bust, waist, and hip measurements are 32″, 24″, and 36″. My inseam is 25″ (the measurement from the inside of my leg to my ankle bone). The clothes shown are unaltered and show how they fit me right from the store. I list my sizing beside each item to help you compare when shopping online. When referencing my true size, that is often the smallest option available at a brand or petite xxs/00/24. I wear a size 5 shoe.

Added Shoes & Accessories
I didn’t include the shoes or accessories in my item count for the capsule because I included more options than I typically do. I typically choose just a few pairs for the capsule but I had many readers request different things. So, I wanted to show different options for different preferences. I also added a coat to some of the outfits to show how I would layer it for winter, but I did not include the coat in the capsule item count.

Bella Relaxed Straight Jeans – Quince 24 x 28″ in Stormy Blue
- 72% Organic Cotton / 26.5% Lyocell / 1.5% Spandex
- 10.5″ Rise / 28″ Inseam (other options available / 7.5″ Leg Opening (Size 24 x 28″)
- Machine Washable
The Bella Relaxed Straight. They’re true to size, offer light support without feeling restrictive, and provide a subtle lift in the back without riding up. This style also starts at a 26″ inseam, making it a great option if you need an even shorter length. To note, the jeans shrink in the wash, most of mine have shrunk about an inch over time.
