going casual

I think combining your dressy pieces with a casual piece is a great way to go--like a nice skirt with a long-sleeved t-shirt instead of a blouse or dressy sweater.

For mixing suit jackets with jeans I think it depends.
Jackets like this tend to look a bit weird with jeans

But I think a jacket like this would probably look cute

It might be easier to use your skirts and slacks and pair them with more casual tops. Maybe use something like a cord blazer with your dress pants, things like striped sweaters with your skirts

That's what I was afraid of Most of the jackets I have look like this.

I agree with cc - blazers like corduroy, twill, or something like that look cool with jeans but not suit jackets.
