How to Wear Mom Jeans, According to Street Style Pros

Fashion is currently experiencing a revival of past trends, from '70s-style flared pants to Y2K-inspired tops. Not surprisingly, retro mom jeans are also loved for their wearability and comfortable silhouette. With a high rise and semibaggy leg, mom jeans present an alternative to the popular boyfriend jeans and consistently deliver elevated, off-duty style.

Worn with a denim jacket, for example, they make a strikingly cool daytime uniform. You can also work them with your favorite bodysuit for a sleek night-out look. While mom jeans lean on the casual side, they can also easily be incorporated into dressier looks. Teamed with a satin blouse and matching kitten heels, a dark-wash pair will exude effortless sophistication at the office or on a date. Or try layering them under a blazer and finish with low mules for a polished ensemble.

While mom jeans typically come in solid colors with minimal details, this season abounds with vintage, ripped, edgy, and all-around-cool options for your styling pleasure. Fashion designers from Diesel to Loewe have pushed the envelope and reworked denim in exciting new ways for fall 2022, so you can plan to shop these reimagined pants well into next season. For now, turn to cult-classic labels like Agolde and Levi's for top-rated pairs you'll cherish for years to come.

What Are Mom Jeans?

Similar to boyfriend jeans, mom jeans embrace a relaxed fit and baggy silhouette, but they differ in that they typically sit higher on the waist. The retro cut is often loose around the thighs and tapers down, but the overall design blends structure and comfort together seamlessly. Try rolling up the hems above the ankle for a defiantly edgy look.

How to Wear Mom Jeans

To keep the focus on your mom jeans, consider tucking in your favorite silk cami, graphic shirt, or pussy-bow blouse. For a more defined silhouette, you can also add a belt and finish with strappy heels for a sleek touch, or choose flats or ankle boots for a relaxed feel. The good news is, your mom jeans will pair well with all your current closet staples and accessories, making them a reliable foundation for your capsule wardrobe.

If you're still unsure how to style them or what shoes to wear with mom jeans, scroll ahead for some stylish outfit ideas and get inspired to refresh your denim selection.

The Boob-Window Trend Is All Over the Red Carpet From Sydney Sweeney to Chlöe

The boob window is the new trend in celebrity dressing making waves this year, both on and off the red carpet. As early as January, in fact, Lori Harvey stepped out to celebrate her 26th birthday in the LBD version of the look, flaunting an asymmetrical midi from The Attico with a chest cutout that circled her cleavage, and was further amplified by an attention-grabbing neck-tie sash. The outfits that follow often resemble halter silhouettes, although not all of these numbers boast a strap on each side. Sydney Sweeney is the latest style icon to give it a go, opting for a brown silk gown that she wore alongside model Izabel Goulart while vacationing in Ibiza. For a night out, the 25-year-old " Euphoria " star rocked her one-shoulder design with gold jewelry, dewy makeup, and her bright blonde hair in loose waves. The bodice of her dress was secured near her collar bone, where fabric from one side was pulled through a loop at the other, wrapping around to the back. The r...

Candice Huffine: "Size Does Not Equal Health, and Weight Does Not Equal Worth"

Image Source: Luvlette Born in Washington DC and raised in a Maryland suburb, Candice Huffine did a little bit of everything when she was growing up, from being captain of the cheerleading squad to taking her turn as a pageant queen. "It was 'typical' in a Hallmark movie kind of way, I guess," Huffine tells POPSUGAR. "These details are important to mention because they did influence my life path. I willingly put myself on a stage at every turn - and not always kind ones - to do the things I loved or to follow a dream I had." Huffine, 39, signed her first modeling contract in 2000. She was "determined" to be a model, despite the fashion industry being notoriously discriminatory toward plus-size people. Knowing the odds were stacked against her propelled Huffine even further toward realizing her dream. "When I received a contract as a plus-size model, it unlocked a new mission in me: to not pursue modeling just for myself, but to push har...

Diaper Shorts Are Back - How to Shop the Controversial TikTok Trend

Of all the street style trends to dominate our FYP and social media feeds in recent years, bloomer shorts seems to be the most bizarre (and ironically one of our top favorites) yet. And who do we have to thank for it? TikTok, of course. In a single scroll on the popular app, you've probably come across the piece multiple times, from those viral Miu Miu briefs to Aritzia's more affordable offerings. Slightly more flirty and risqué than the stomach pudge dress or the fisherman aesthetic , bloomer shorts (aka "diaper shorts") have officially made it to the top of the sartorial food chain. What Are Bloomer Shorts? While the idea of bloomer shorts may seem new or daunting at first, they're far from groundbreaking. Similarly to most trends, the good ol' "everything is new again" concept applies here, as the fad dates back to 1850 when the silhouette was invented as a practical solution for women's health and comfort - eventually grabbing the atten...
