How to Style Baggy Jeans

published 12 August 19

This style takes boyfriend cut up a notch with a more dramatic width and length. Seemingly unpolished, the heaviness of the baggy cut actually holds its own as a fashion-forward silhouette that demands attention when paired with an equally bold top.

To pull off such a statement style at the office, even out the heaviness of the pant with a polished pussy bow blouse in a graphic print. Add in classic accessories, like pumps and a structured purse, to ground down the look without being too casual.

To bring these jeans out of tomboy territory, try showing some skin with a plunging neckline. Add a funky-shaped pouch for your evening essentials and a pair of dancing shoes with a heel high enough to keep the bottom of your jeans off the ground but low enough to bar hop comfortably.
