Love it or leave it? Polarizing doesn’t begin to cover these jeans’ history. Even I have repeatedly fallen in and out of love with this new denim shape!
Comment BARREL to shop the jeans (available in several colors) and the looks! I’ve tried on loads of these and this particular brand fits like Joe’s Jeans for a fraction of the price!
Barrel jeans do’s & don’ts:
Do waist your tops! I like waisting my oversized tops and knits with an elastic band (also linked). This helps balance proportions and gives the eye somewhere to go. ⌛️
Do mind your shoes- some out there think chunky shoes look great with these jeans and IMO it looks clunky on my frame and the overall look I prefer; polished, classic. T-bar ballet flats and square or pointy toe boots or sling-backs look great with these jeans because they show a little skin and elongate the leg! 🥿
To me, chunky boots feel too heavy. 🥾
Do layer on a 3rd piece such as a Moto or blazer! Long cardigans compete with the silhouette of the jeans ultimately not “landing” anywhere because it all just looks big. 🥀
Don’t worry too much about getting it wrong! It was about time they came up with a different jeans silhouette! Slightly western, bold and powerful✅
It’s just fashion, everything will be ok😊
