Short Kurta
Styling the kurti jeans look in general is primarily a game of getting the proportions right so that the silhouette flows and enhances your body shape. Short kurtas look great paired with flared or wide-leg jeans, and, you can easily shop them from your local stores as well as online. Pair them with a colourful tote, and you can really play around when it comes to accessories. This sanganeri kurta is bright, and flowy and will really be perfect for everyday college or work.

It has a mandarin neck and can be paired with regular-fit jeans, a structured tote, and block heels. It looks professional and playful at the same time and will work beautifully for small functions and gatherings at home.

Chikankari Kurti
We love Chikankaris! They are evergreen, versatile, and are just so pretty, and are our top contender for a kurti jeans outfit. This black georgette chikankari kurta accessorised with silver jewelry and a tan bag, is the perfect look for college, a day out with friends, brunches, or for anything you want, it will always be a staple piece in your wardrobe—a total classic. Chikankaris are great because you know you'll always look good in one!

Long Kurta
Long Kurtas are so comfortable and make for perfect office wear or even to a date. This Kalamkari hand-block kurta is a versatile piece, has a V-neck design, and is made of soft cotton. For your kurti jeans look, you can pair it with jeans, linen bottoms, or palazzos, and with the right accessories, you can wear it to brunches, or shopping sprees as well.

A Line Kurta
A-Line Kurtas are flattering on almost all body times. This striped kurta is made from soft cotton and is available in up to 4XL size. It is perfect as your kurti jeans outfit for daily wear and office wear, and you can rock this look with big jhumka earrings, juttis, or kohlapuris, and a handbag that fits your world.
Pair With: Complete the look with blue-clad jeans and a medium black tote.
Anarkali
Anarkalis are probably one of the best types of kurti to pair with jeans, that you can pair with your jeans. They make most of your fit, and this Anarkali from Siah will provide a beautiful flow to your Anarkali look. To dress it up, you can pair it with skinny jeans and an ethnic bag to complete the whole fit.
Pair With: Complete the look with skinny jeans, and a solid sling.
Plain Kurta
When it comes to styling a kurta, we say that the plain basic one is the most fashionable. There is something so chic about plain solid kurtas, styled with jeans, and with the right accessories, you can really bring the house down. This look is perfect for every day, college, work, running errands, and more, and this kurta from 'W', comes in more than five solid colours. Pair it with wide-leg jeans, a canvas tote, and a small bindi.
Pair With: Complete the look with wide-leg jeans, and a green-pine tote.
Flared Tunic
If you are someone who doesn't really like to wear ethnic and can only bear a short kurta occasionally, then we have solved your problem. You should go for a flared kurta top, easily available everywhere, and honestly carries the essence of an everyday top while being a kurti. They are so flowy and chic, and when paired with the right pants, preferably bootcut, you can really achieve an edgy look. Add small beautiful earrings to complete the look.
Pair With: Complete the look with bootleg jeans, and a pair of silver jhumkis.
Angrakha
We have been loving the angrakha kurta style lately because it looks quite flamboyant because of the flared style clubbed with the side tie-up. This would look stunning for your slightly more put-together kurti and jeans look. And to amp up the fashion quotient here, pair it with a bucket bag and leather flats.
Asymmetrical Kurti
For those wanting to give the kurti jeans look a slight more modern take, opt for a cute asymmetric kurti and pair it with slightly cropped denims. Similar to the image, pair your kurti with flared jeans if you like and go for a pair of leather boots to give it a slightly edgy feel. Basically, copy paste this look for a fun college outing.
High Slit Kurti
This kurti jeans look is inspired from Alizeh's character from Ae Dil Hai Mushkil. Cringe at the mention of that all you want but all of us can collectively agree that Anushka Sharma's character looked stunning in the movie and somewhat relatable which happens rarely for a KJo movie. To rock this loo, simply pair a high slit kurta with a pair of jeans for that edgy but ethnic vibe.
Peplum Kurti
There's something very girly and youthful about this style of kurti. Peplum kurti is again a flared style that sinches below the chest and looks lovely on most body shapes. Our pick is this printed one from Jaipur Kurti that features two set of prints and mega sleeves. This should be teamed with a slightly more fitted pair of denims, avoid straight fit and more oversized fits to avoid looking bulky.
Kaftan Kurti
We have been loving kaftans for summers since they are breezy and keep you cool throughout the day. We found this lovely kaftan kurta that is handblocked with a contemporary print and is made from 100% cotton, perfect for spending long hours in on a hot summer day. Team this one with a nice pair of fitted jeans and a tan leather bag, and you will be good to go!
