Dressing Up Mom Jeans

If you would have told me in high school that I would be loving mom jeans there’s no way in hell I would have believed you. But here we are more than a decade later and I’m obsessed.

I am typically found wearing my favorite mom jeans {there are at least four pair in my closet} in a casual setting. But today I want to share how this trend isn’t just for weekend wear. This post is all about how to style your favorite high-waisted jeans for the office {dress code permitting 😉 } or date night.

It doesn’t take much to shift a casual look to a more professional or dressy execution. The things that make this outfit a little more formal? The structured blazer, heels and structured bag. That’s truly it! Otherwise it’s just a soft t-shirt and a killer pair of high-waisted denim.

Moving on to this amazing jacket: there are countless reasons to purchase a great, neutral colored blazer. It can be worn with just about anything. My favorite way to style a blazer is with a piece that would typically be classified as casual. This particular blazer is one I’ve had for at least three years and it still has so much life in it. It pays to invest in a piece like this.

If you don’t have a pair of strappy heels {or even if you do}: you need these! They’re so affordable and they go with pretty much anything. This outfit would still work without them but heels are always a great way to dress things up. You could just as easily style this outfit with a pair of flats if that suits you better.

Hopefully this further inspires you on how to style a pair of mom jeans for a number of occasions. If you’re in need of some more casual high-waisted jean outfit inspiration, check out this blog post or this one to get you started!

We’re getting everything ready to go on vacation next week! We’re so excited for the getaway and I have so many great outfits planned so check back for updates very soon!
