one of my favorite jeans on the blog today! i’ve had this pair for years and always find myself going back to them. i chose the basic but if you tend to like a more exaggerated look you can always opt for the super flare. these jeans also have a high waist which is so comfortable and especially great for the holidays when you care to indulge 🙂 i’m a bit on the tall side and can pull off wearing a smaller heel with these, which i love. if you are more petite make sure you try on a few to see what length suits you best.

because of the high waist i chose to pair it with a loose peplum top that’s slightly cropped. a top that hits higher on your waist will allow the jeans to elongate your legs giving you an overall lean appearance. the tank i paired this with is adorable but has a sheer back so i tend to have to layer it. i tried to link a few similar ones that you may be able to get more use out of.

now onto the most amazing piece in this look, the coat. i would love to refer to this piece as vintage since i have had it since high school! the faux fur on the inside and the texture on the outside is so warm and cozy while still looking effortless & chic. the camel color is so on trend right now and just goes to show you some things never go out of style.

i finished the look off with a shoe i tend to keep on repeat. if you haven’t scooped these up yet, do it now while they’re on sale! the clutch is another grab from banana republic that has taken me through many years and seasons. the snakeskin print is so delicate and the simple box frame complements anything.

hope you all had an amazing holiday and stay tuned for another post and some very exciting news on the blog tomorrow!

xox,
