Barrel jeans are a fun way to change up your everyday denim style and if you don’t have a pair you love, try these! A mid-rise and slightly oversized so there’s room to size down if you prefer a closer fit.
And if you need a few tips on how to style them, I got you. Try going with a closer fitting, elevated top or seater like this one and I also added a long line necklace – both of these will balance the bottom portion. As for what shoes?? Here are a couple examples for what (and what not!) to wear…
ON ALL: denim, cardigan sweater, necklace, gold earrings set, knee high socks LEFT: sneakers RIGHT: plaid flats
The sneakers on the left feel a but chunky and bottom heavy when paired with the barrel. Instead, go for an elevated flat or heel that shoes your ankle. A slim, low line sneaker like these are a great option too.
ON ALL: denim, cardigan sweater, necklace, gold earrings set, knee high socks LEFT: chelsea boots found here and here RIGHT: ankle boots found here and here
A round toe Chelsea Boot is not a terrible option but if you’re going for an elevated, confident look, instead go with a pointed toe slim ankle boot.
