“At 5’2”, I used to be apprehensive that barrel denims would swamp my petite body (as wide-leg trousers usually do). However it seems that this fashion is ideal; I don’t must hem them (as I often must do with denims that don’t have a shorter inseam), and the refined curved form of those denims makes me look manner taller than I’m (magic!). This pair specifically is so cozy, although I might advocate sizing down if, like me, you’re in between sizes, as they sit lower-waisted than anticipated.
When it comes to styling, I needed to counter the slouchy, outsized power of the denims with some enjoyable, touches (and play off the cool star-patch sample). So, as an alternative of pairing them with a chunkier shoe silhouette, I went for my favourite ballet flats (which unexpectedly matched my cardigan), and a form-fitting child tee that doesn’t problem the bagginess of the trousers. Because it will get colder, I’ll be swapping these out for cropped knits, colourful cowboy boots, and my favourite Penny Lane coats so as to add to the edgy, classic vibe.” — Esther Newman, Affiliate Author
