Many people were surprised to discover that a seemingly insignificant trend has developed into something bigger. It looks like boyfriend jeans are here to stay – they are a staple type of jeans in a lot of women’s wardrobes all over the world. One of the reasons why they are so popular is because they come in a variety of cuts: baggy or slim, with or without cuffs, etc. Girls like them because they’re usually fitted at the hips and have a bit more relaxed fit through the legs. If you’re looking for inspiration on how to style your favorite boyfriend jeans, you’ve come to the right place.
Tomboy-ish
If you’re hoping to pull off a tomboy-chic style, all you need is a simple white shirt and a colorful bomber jacket. It’s not easy finding a balance between laid back and put-together, but if you pair up your cropped boyfriend jeans that have rolled cuffs, casual white sneakers, and a crisp white shirt, you will be able to achieve just that. A colorful bomber jacket with a cross-body bag is a perfect finishing touch for that cute tomboy look. On the other hand, you can always swap the sneakers from strappy high heel sandals if you’re aiming for a sexier look.
Elegant and professional
You can easily wear your slim fit boyfriend jeans to the office and look professional and elegant – all you need to do is wear a button-down shirt. You can pick a crisp, white one, or you could even play around with some delicate and discreet prints: flowers or stripes. Tuck the shirt in, add a belt with a nice buckle and a fabulous shoulder or a tote bag, and you’ll be ready to take over the office. Still, in order to look more professional, we suggest you opt for a slimmer version of boyfriend jeans rather than baggy one.
Vintage and sexy
If you have a beloved pair of baggy vintage boyfriend jeans you stole from your boyfriend’s (or your mom’s closet), we have a few ideas on how you can wear them and look chic. These jeans are usually in a lighter wash, but you can easily style them up so that you can be stylish and modern. You can create an outfit you will be able to wear to casual nights out with your friends or perhaps to a bit wilder night out: pair straight-leg boyfriend jeans with a satin spaghetti-strap tank top, and throw a cropped tweed jacket over your shoulders. Wear simple slides footwear and pick up a small bejeweled clutch bag.
Fierce and playful
Blue jeans and a buttoned shirt might be classic, but if you’re hoping to pull off something fierce and playful, why not pair your high-waisted boyfriend jeans with a boldly patterned shirt? You can tuck the shirt in and add a belt to accentuate your waist, and you could even try adding a matching leather purse. You can wear simple Oxford shoes for a pulled-together look that’s suitable for an office or pumps for drinks after work. If you’re aiming for something a bit fiercer, we recommend you add a fitted motorcycle leather jacket, classic black sunglasses, and some simple white sneakers.
No matter what you want to call them: baggy jeans, mom jeans, boyfriend jeans – it looks like they’re here to stay. Even though you probably already have a favorite outfit, you can’t always keep wearing the same shirt, sweater, and boots. New outfit inspiration is always welcome, and you can always find something you’ll like on the internet. Don’t be afraid to step out of your comfort zone and try something new every now and then.
