I had an idea for a blog post today styling a few different pieces I have picked up recently but once I put these jeans on, I couldn’t stop thinking of all the ways to style them. I thought I would round them all up here! I picked up these high rise straight leg denim Sunday and posted them on Instagram the same day because they are just that good. Straight leg and wide leg denim are a huge trend and while I tend to stick to more classic pieces, I felt like I would get a lot of wear with a straight leg pair. I also think that when sticking to trendier pieces and are on a budget, stick to good quality pieces at a discount. These were 50% off (they are 40% off today!) when I bought them so not something I wanted to spend a ton on. After trying on a few pair, these slid on so well and I didn’t want to take them off. The higher waist is super flattering and the straight leg allows quite a few different shoe options.
I stuck to a few basic, staple pieces and played off of those. Switching out shoes, adding a jacket, vest and a hat totally changes up the outfits from casual to dressy. I wore these earrings with every single outfit. Still a favorite from summer and will definitely go with fall outfits!
Denim fit tip: these run a tad big – I went down one size. I’m normally a size 25 (0) at Loft and went with the 24 (00). If you want a more oversized fit, I would go with your normal size. The 25 fit looser in the legs and waist. I’m 5’6″ for height reference.

Beautiful looks and outfits! You make jeans look so good. 🙂 In my case, jeans are the hardest for me to shop for! I don’t know what it is but it gets very frustrating. Since becoming a mom, I have appreciated high waisted denim and I can’t wait to try your recommendations. Wish me luck! I hope you are having a fantastic day and happy Wednesday!
