5 WAYS TO WEAR THE HOTTEST DENIM TREND OF 2022

Dallas woman over 40 demonstrating how to wear straight leg denim

 

Happy Monday friends!  I hope y’all had an amazing weekend!  If you’ve been reading my blog or watching my YouTube videos then you know I’m a HUGE FAN OF DENIM!  How about you, do you love wearing jeans as much as I do?  I honestly wear them almost every day so it’s no surprise that I’m always on the hunt for the next best pair.  I recently published a YOUTUBE VIDEO titled THE TOP DENIM TRENDS OF 2022 so for even more denim inspiration be sure and check out that video.

Straight-leg denim is definitely THE HOTTEST DENIM TREND of 2022 and I’ll have to say I’m so happy they’re in because they’re actually quite slimming as the straight-leg silhouette tends to elongate the legs.  If you only add one pair of jeans to your denim collection let it be a high-waisted straight leg silhouette, trust me, you’ll be glad you did!

If you’re wondering how to wear straight-leg denim then keep scrolling because I’m showcasing 5 different ways to wear your straight-leg denim this season.  The best part, the last 2 pairs of jeans fit and feel like designer denim yet they’re both UNDER $100!

SHOP MY CURRENT FAVORITE STRAIGHT-LEG DENIM:

MOUSSY JEANS PAIRED WITH A SIMPLE BODYSUIT:

Straight leg jeans always look good with a fitted top or bodysuit because this creates balance in your look. Be sure to wear a more fitted top since the jeans are a bit on the baggier side and ALWAYS tuck it in. This bodysuit is a fantastic value for under $100; I find it runs tts and I’m wearing an XS.

The MOUSSY JEANS are made in Japan and the coolest washes come from this brand making them look very vintage-inspired! If you are looking for a edgy cool-girl vibe then be sure to double cuff your hem. I find they run small so size up one size and I’m wearing a size 25.

IVORY JEANS PAIRED WITH A V-NECK BODYSUIT:

This V neck bodysuit by Good American is a gorgeous rich brown shade and because of the low v-neckline, which creates length in the upper portion of your body, it pairs well with straight-leg denim.

This is my favorite fit that Mother makes, it’s called the Rider, and it is SO GOOD I own it in 3 washes! These jeans are going to be part of my upcoming spring capsule wardrobe so stay tuned for that as well. I’m wearing a size 24, and it’s important to not that these are ivory, not white, which is why I love these jeans so much.

MOUSSY JEANS PAIRED WITH A SHIRT JACKET:

Straight-leg jeans always look great with a bodysuit and a casual shirt jacket, just make sure to pair with a heel of some sort to add length and height to the look. I personally love these tan mules by Vince Camuto because they are so comfy and a great deal for under $100.

I’m wearing the Moussy Jeans again in this look, this time I went without a belt but I did double cuff the raw hem for a similar vibe to look one.

SHOP THE LOOK (CARDIGAN AND JEANS ARE UNDER $100):

EXPRESS JEANS PAIRED WITH A CHIC CARDIGAN SET:

This whole look channels a total spring vibe and I am HERE.FOR. IT. This relaxed dolman sleeve cardigan set is such a pretty lavender color and has a fantastic price point below $100; I’m wearing an XS in this spring must-have.

These jeans from Express are  seriously so good. They are a great price, under $100, BUT they fit like designer denim. They are high-waisted and I adore this wash for the spring season. As a bonus for this pair, you can order them in different lengths to adjust the fit, I’m wearing a size 0 regular for reference.

EXPRESS JEANS PAIRED WITH AN OVER-SIZED BLAZER:

A blazer and killer pair of denim is always a chic combo. This blazer is such a fun color and perfectly over-sized. Bold brights and over-sized jackets are 2 of this year’s biggest trends so this blazer is right on trend!

The jeans are also from Express and they’re a similar silhouette from the one I have on in look 4. They are a slightly darker wash and they’re a bit longer which is the main reason why I cuffed them. I’m wearing a size 0 regular in these fantastically affordable jeans.
