I know that you've heard a time or two that skinny jeans are no longer in-style. If you've been around me for any amount of time, you know I'm not one a fan of being a trend victim and to always wear what's suited for you.

That being said.... skinny jeans are not flattering on a lot of women.

But a lot of women have kept wearing them, because they knew how to wear them.

May I introduce Mom Jeans... Mom jeans are typically straight-leg, high waisted jeans, and often a light or mid wash color.

A big outfit struggle I hear when introducing a new jean style is which shoe to wear with the jean. Here’s a breakdown of what shoes work well with mom jeans.

SHOES WITH STRAIGHT JEANS: LOAFERS

I love my loafer mules – they’re a super versatile pair of shoes that you can wear for work, everyday, church, date night, or anything. You can choose a pair of loafers that aren’t slip-on, but mom jeans and straight leg jeans absolutely work with any style of loafers.

SHOES WITH STRAIGHT LEG JEANS: LOW CUT SNEAKERS

Sneakers are great choice to wear with mom jeans! Choose ones that are low cut and slim to help elongate your leg line and show some ankle.

SHOES WITH STRAIGHT LEG JEANS: FLAT SANDALS

Of course, flat sandals work with everything! They’re a great choice with mom jeans or straight leg jeans during the spring and summer when it’s hot. Just skip the flip flops and choose a pair of sandals that are a little nicer.

SHOES WITH STRAIGHT JEANS: HEELED SANDALS

You can absolutely dress up your mom and straight leg jeans! Just throw on a blouse and some block heel sandals for a chic and semi-dressed up feel.

Shoes are often an often an afterthought, but typically one of the biggest reasons women struggle to get dressed each morning. They also play a crucial role in completing your overall look and can greatly impact your comfort and confidence throughout the day.
