What do you wear instead of jeans?

Pretty much as the title suggests. Some background, I live abroad and until now I’ve always ordered my clothes from the U.K. (Topshop, Oasis, R.I) but due to Brexit I need to start buying in my own country. But I’m in such a fashion rut and I literally just wear jeans and a top, until summer and then a tea dress.
My question, what are you wearing in this kind of weather instead of just jeans?
FYI, I’m a size 8, early 30s. I love paper bag trousers but I’m not sure I feel “cool enough” to pull them off.

I wear a lot of dresses with tights in winter! I find them far comfier than jeans! Love the midi skirt suggestion too

I always wear winter/autumn dresses (so just dresses that are a bit thicker really) and then some thick tights and boots. :)

Seriously me too! I’m getting so used to not wearing makeup in the days when i don’t have meetings and I’m just home that I feel like I’m in drag when I put it back on 😂🤦🏻‍♀️

Joggers or leggings.
I only wear jeans when I go out. Majority of the time I’m staying in and to be honest for our family staying in is the new thing. This is our new normal for the foreseeable even with everything back To normal. x

I’m in the exact same situation as you, over winter I was wearing dresses with tights but it’s starting to get slightly warmer over here now and I’m looking for something other than jeans and tops as that’s all I wear when I go out, I have a few maxi skirts that I’ve started wearing with a denim jacket/ trainers/plain tshirt. Think I need to take a shopping trip next week to get some new ideas!

What is the weather in Belgium like right now?
 
I hardly wear jeans anymore, only if I was going out now. After years of finding them uncomfortable I’ve just given up on them. I wear a lot of long jumpers/tops with leggings or jumper dresses with thick tights in winter or joggers and sweatshirts/jumpers. In the summer I’ll do similar but just without the tights!

Haha it’s 18 degrees, gorgeous sunshine and I wore a dress for the first time today...this time last week I couldn’t get the car out of the drive because it was deep under snow. (When I say gorgeous sunshine I mean it was....it’s 8.30pm now 😂)

Where do you go for jumper dresses? I love the style but never really find any I love.
