I'm liking them in #6 and #9 with the blazer.</p> <p>I think there are certain shapes that you just gravitate to. If you learned to wear them in the past they can feel very natural when they come back round again. My current favourite jeans are a pair of mens' 501s which remind me of jeans I wore in the late '80s. Now of course I can call them boyfriend jeans.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mom-jeans-for-me#post-1740271 Sun, 16 Oct 2016 04:48:25 +0000 Anonymous 1740271@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like them on you. &nbsp;My favorites are number six onward. &nbsp;That is a seriously nice vest. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mom-jeans-for-me#post-1740268 Sun, 16 Oct 2016 03:16:00 +0000 Alecia 1740268@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm really surprised by the enthusiasm for the tucked in look. Thank you all for your feedback. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mom-jeans-for-me#post-1740259 Sun, 16 Oct 2016 02:38:57 +0000 Jaime 1740259@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they are cropped to a great length and are best worn tucked or with a short top, because that is the point of these kind of jeans to my eye. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mom-jeans-for-me#post-1740242 Sun, 16 Oct 2016 02:15:50 +0000 peacechick 1740242@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the tucked in looks. Untucked, they look like boyfriend jeans and I feel like you should be rolling the cuffs. Tucked in though, it's clear it's a different silhouette. You look good! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mom-jeans-for-me#post-1740204 Sun, 16 Oct 2016 00:08:05 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1740204@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them on you! 7 is my favorite look. I like them best with the high-top sneakers, but the oxfords are also a good look with them. I agree with you that I like the ones with toppers best, and I think it's because those outfits look the most intentional. Still, I really like 10, too, showing off the waist and rocking the high-tops. I think you got the length just right on these--nice job! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mom-jeans-for-me#post-1740186 Sat, 15 Oct 2016 23:07:34 +0000 RobinF 1740186@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also like them with the high-tops! My eye has to adjust but I'm surprised that I actually do like a lot of these. My favorites are #9 with that cute jacket and #7 with the vest. I also like the pink sweater on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mom-jeans-for-me#post-1740169 Sat, 15 Oct 2016 22:20:19 +0000 Traci 1740169@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do like them with the high tops! &nbsp;I was trying to figure out if that was the common factor in the ones I liked the best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mom-jeans-for-me#post-1740168 Sat, 15 Oct 2016 22:19:21 +0000 chewyspaghetti 1740168@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the tucked look best too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mom-jeans-for-me#post-1740167 Sat, 15 Oct 2016 22:17:52 +0000 Alecia 1740167@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh! I just noticed my original tucked picture didn't have my bed head cropped out. So I put a new one up. So the numbers in Traci's réponse may be a little off now. Thank you, Traci, for your response. Do you think the pants work with those high top shoes? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mom-jeans-for-me#post-1740165 Sat, 15 Oct 2016 22:08:34 +0000 Traci 1740165@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I actually like the fully tucked look in #5 best. &nbsp;3 and 6 also appeal to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mom-jeans-for-me#post-1740164 Sat, 15 Oct 2016 22:05:49 +0000 Alecia 1740164@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>First, I don't love the name mom jeans, but I guess that's what people are calling them... Thus the title. But I digress. </p> <p>I haven't been on the forum in a long time (and I miss everyone!) but I need assistance with the new proportions Angie outlined. I hope you afford me the indulgence. </p> <p>To my surprise, I have been enjoying the resurgence of 90s fashion. Most of the looks, I'll enjoy from afar but I decided I could try a high waist jean. The one's pictured here are vintage Levi's but I cut them to be cropped and maintained the frayed hem with the thought that this would update them. </p> <p>Like others who have posted higher waist pants before me, I'm trepidatious about tucking with them. However, I'm posting a picture with a shirt tucked so you can see what it looks like. </p> <p>I am uncertain of myself with these "new" proportions. When I first came to ylf, I was still wearing silhouettes like this but they were really dated at that time. So on one level, I feel like I'm reverting backward. But I think some of it is that my eye needs to adjust. I'm not usually an early adopter. </p> <p>Of the pictures I've posted, I pefer the ones that have a topper. I think that may be because it's the look on training wheels. </p> <p>What do you think? Are any of these looks workable? Am I totally off base? Thanks, everyone! </p>
