20 Streetstyle-worthy ways to rock the mom jeans without looking frumpy
You may want to get a pair or two for your closet now.
Once considered to be unfashionable and unflattering to a women's figure, the mom jeans have now evolved to become a closet must have. Comfortable and stylish, it's actually really simple to pull off as long as you get the know-how.
ROCK THE MOM JEANS LIKE A STREETSTYLE MAVEN
- Cinch your waist with a belt. Not only does a belt make your waist look smaller, it helps make your figure look somewhat curvier due to the silhouette it gives.
- Tuck it in. Tucking in your top or wearing a tighter shirt can help show off your curves and give your mom jeans that added pizzazz. But of course, that doesn't mean you can't wear it the lazy way with a comfy sweatshirt.
- Cuff your mom jeans. Cuff your mom jeans to mid-calf to add a flair to the most casual of outfits. It makes you look more put together (even at your laziest). Cuffing your mom jeans also helps to accent your flats or heels. Opt for ankle boots if you want to add an edge to your look!
- Go for a dark wash. There are no rules as to what wash of jeans you should go for; although for a more dressed-up look, a dark wash might be more suited. A light wash, on the other hand, is recommended for a more casual ensemble!
- Accessorise. When in doubt, accessorise. Put on a coat or blazer, wear some jewelry and throw on some shades. You will instantly look fine and polished.
