4 STYLE TIPS WHEN WEARING WIDE-LEG JEANS:

1

MAKE SURE THE JEANS ARE HIGH-WAISTED:

When you’re shopping keep in mind that high-waisted wide jeans always look more flattering and slimming than low-waisted wide-leg jeans. These jeans from Alice & Olivia are so flattering and I love the vintage faded wash. These are made of non-stretch denim and they run small so size up one size for the perfect fit. I wear a size 25 in these full-length jeans with a vintage-chic aesthetic.

PAIR WITH A BODYSUIT OR FITTED TOP:

Pairing wide-leg jeans with a fitted upper layer helps offset the extra material of the denim and can also create a flattering cinched waist effect. Good American bodysuits are my go-to brand for a good reason, so it’s no surprise I’ve linked one here. This is a versatile top that comes in a host of neutral shades and I’m wearing an XS for size reference. Check out a few more fabulous options just below!

PAIR WITH A CROPPED OR FITTED JACKET AS OPPOSED TO AN OVER-SIZED OR LONG JACKET:

I paired the wide-leg jeans above with this incredibly luxurious fitted faux fur jacket by Levi’s. A much cozier take on the classic trucker jacket, this snap-up version is made from plush faux shearling in a relaxed, cropped style that’s very easy to layer. I’m wearing an XS in this winter wardrobe must-have that also happens to be ON SALE!

PAIR WITH A HEEL OF SOME SORT:

Tip No. 4 for how to style the hottest denim trend of 2024 is to pair your wide-leg jeans with a heel. Whether it’s booties, platforms, or stilettos this will allow you to look taller and slimmer! Wearing a heel with wide-leg jeans will also ensure you don’t look frumpy which can easily happen if you pair wide-leg denim with flats or sneakers. These gold slingback heels have caught my eye and are also ON SALE so I will be investing in these, I’ll let you know what I think!

CROPPED DENIM AND GOLD JACKET (UNDER $100):

Look No.2 features the same Alice & Olivia jeans in a chic double-denim look! I am obsessed with this cropped denim jacket trimmed in gold from Sam Edelman. As soon as I saw it I knew it was coming home with me, and once I saw the under $80 price I was totally sold! This look is a fabulous way to stack your trends and will transition well into spring. I wear an XS in this incredibly hot jacket.
