WIDE LEG JEANS OUTFIT!

After spending the last two and a half years in an assortment of comfy leisurewear, the thought of sliding on some skinny jeans feels constraining, and it looks like I’m not the only one that feels this way.

Baggy and wide leg pants have become one of the newest pant trends for 2022 and, to be honest, it has got me a bit wrapped up in nostalgic memories from my youth when flared pants and grunge was cool.

Last fall both wide leg high rise jeans and low rise baggy pants were all over the runways for Spring Summer 2022, and ‘relaxed pants’ was definitely a collective theme in New York, Paris and Milan. I have seen fashion taste-makers like Bella Hadid, Hailey Baldwin and Rihanna all sport wide leg jean outfits and nothing feels more ‘right’ than following suit.

A quick rummage through my own closet had me pulling out a few different options for wide leg pants including a few high waisted culottes that totally fit this trend. I was missing the one thing I was after however, a great pair of wide leg high waisted jeans. So I got to work.

HOW TO STYLE WIDE LEG JEANS

Wide leg pants generally give you a slender appearance and even more so when paired with a high waisted design.

When going for a casual look I will pair my high wasted wide leg jeans with a baggy band t-shirt or cropped sweater and some sneakers. This is how I wear my wide leg jeans most of the time and it’s a comfortable upgrade from my usual leisurewear.

If I feel like dressing them up a little, I’ll add some heels and a micro bag with a pop of colour, a crop top, and an oversized trench coat. Alternatively, I’ve also seen people keep their sneakers, add a crop top and a cropped blazer jacket, put their hair in a low bun, add some sunnies, a microbe and some gold jewelry, and they’re off to the races.

If you’re not that into grunge I’d avoid buying any ripped wide leg pants but if you are, one super authentic way to go grunge with your wide leg pants is to shop vintage! There are so many options out there and when you score a unique pair of wide leg jeans they become one of the most coveted items in your closet. Also considering the environmental impact of producing jeans (it takes 7,500 litres of water to make one pair of jeans), you can feel good about it too.

CARGO PANTS 2022 TREND!

Move over skinny jeans, it’s time for cargo pants to shine, and it looks like the fashion world agrees.

Cargo pants have become one of the newest pant trends for 2022 and I could not be more ready to switch things up. I’m all about those cute denim alternatives, especially after learning how much water is needed to produce one pair of jeans (it’s 7,500 litres by the way) and it looks like we can finally ditch denim for more lightweight fabrics. Baggy pants were all over the runways for Spring Summer 2022, and ‘relaxed pants’ was definitely the collective theme.

I always loved a utility look so I am thrilled to see cargo pants are in style this season and I know I’ll be incorporating more of them into my wardrobe as we move towards warmer weather. I also love the comfiness of baggy pants but know how unflattering they can quickly become if not worn correctly so to help you achieve that super chic outfit you are after, here are some personal styling tips and a breakdown of my thought process when putting together this outfit.

HOW TO STYLE CARGO PANTS

When I was shopping for a cargo pant I wanted something high waisted and wide leg to make me look tall (I’m 5’4) and slender. Thankfully, the majority of styles I was seeing online varied between wide leg pants and jogger.

WIDE LEG CARGO PANTS VS JOGGER CARGO PANTS

As a rule of thumb, wide leg pants generally give you a slender appearance where joggers will accentuate your bodies natural curves. If you want to show off those curves, jogger cargo pants are the way to go, otherwise a wide leg creates straight lines which can help you achieve a more slender figure.

When styling this outfit I knew pairing my new cargo pants with a crop top and heels always helped make my legs look longer and give me a taller, slender appearance so I opted in for a neutral PVC sandal and an Artizia vest I recently bought with built in shoulder pads. I tucked my new vest into my bra to make it appear cropped and instantly, the wide shoulders created this upside down triangle shape that drew attention to my now visible waist and made it look smaller.

To break up the outfits monotone colour palette I added brown accessories with matching colour hardware which complimented the outfit beautifully. Considering the pants fit great around my thighs but lose around my waist, utilizing a belt help me create a ‘paper bag’ waist effect that accentuated its tiny appearance as well as helped hold my pants up!

When it comes to alternative top options, a simple t-shirt can also work great with cargo pants as well as tucked in poplin blouses and cropped sweaters. If you want to go for a more casual look, swap in a chunky sneakers and you’re there. The possibilities are endless when it comes to cargo pants really, as long as they are relaxed and roomie.
