If you are clueless when it comes to fashion, knowing what to wear with faded black jeans may be a challenge. While jeans are a versatile item of clothing, black jeans can be harder to style. Men don't always pay attention to fashion, but that doesn't need to be the case. Whether you are a man or woman, putting yourself together well is always the best way to make a good impression. Knowing what to wear with faded black jeans takes some experience and a good eye.

  1. Pair faded black jeans with a gray, turtleneck sweater. For an extra-special touch, choose a sweater with luxurious fabric such as cashmere. A ribbed, nubby turtleneck sweater adds some sophistication to the jeans. But, the faded black jeans give it an edgy and casual look. Add black boots or dress shoes to the outfit.
  2. Wear a button-down, striped shirt with faded black jeans. This look is ideal for a casual workplace or on a casual Friday. The key to make this look work is to make sure that the shirt is well-fitting and tailored well. A white shirt is crisp against the jeans.
  3. Create a cool and urban look by pairing a a wool blazer over a hip concert T-shirt or similar graphic shirt. The blazer should not be black as it will look odd against the faded black jeans. Instead, stick with gray or even camel.
  4. Wear your faded black jeans with a pair of converse. Stick with the low-top version. Colors such as off-white, black or green work well. Any shirt is fine.
