Snag the Look: Wide Leg

 I've always been a fan of wide leg pants, jeans in particular. My love affair began in high school (aka my Abercrombie and Fitch days) and continued on since. As much as I enjoy a great fitting pair of skinnys, I'll undoubtedly choose wide leg over skinny any day. They are the ultimate Saturday jean if you ask me! Pair your jeans with a billowy blouse and you're instantly put together with little effort and plenty of comfort. Aren't the bows on this cream blouse cute - I'm officially smitten! And I added the red lipstick to work in that touch of red.

I haven't done a wide leg jean in years, I feel like it would feel so strange now after sporting skinnies for the last few years! Love this look though, and that blouse is DARLING! The bows! So cute.

I love this look, wide leg pants are so flattering on any shape. And that fur vest looks wonderfully cozy. I'm currently freezing in Cupertino and really wishing I had dressed more appropriately, brrrrrr.

Kimbirdy said...

i LOVE that look! a good pair of flair jeans always makes me feel so much more grown up for some reason. like i'm a classy adult, instead of a cool hipster kid in my skinny jeans.

Hi Alicia,

I love widelegs too and my J brand Lovestory are my favorite pair. They give the leg such a long look. You look great and love the entire outfit!

Love your look: especially the wide leg jeans and the fur vest! I've been stuck on skinny pants for so long, but one of my goals this year is to try wide leg jeans a la rachel zoe!

Love the outfit! Are those 7 dojo jeans in NY wash? They're my absolute favorite. I agree, I'd much rather wear wide leg jeans than skinny any day of the week!
