We're reaching that time of year when our dreams of sun feel more like an exercise in futility, rather than an eventual actuality. This is the time of year when I'm sick to death of my usual winter uniform...but I can't fully commit to spring outfits. I needed some tried-and-true outfit formulas, ones that combined a spring-like vibe with...
Love 'em or hate 'em, mom jeans are back. I was not a fan. I wanted to keep rocking my skinny jeans and tall boots, to be honest. But when I realized this trend wasn't going anywhere anytime soon, I knew I had to figure out how to style mom jeans without feeling frumpy or mumsy or...fashion-victim-y. (It's a...
We're hitting hard on mom jeans right now because we get so many questions about styling them! I'll admit, I wasn't fully on board with this particular denim style until I recently found the perfect faded black pair.
As a team, we've had a bit of debate and discussion as to what exactly constitutes mom jeans, but, in my...
Did Week Five go super-fast for anyone else? Mom Jeans definitely seem to be a love 'em or hate 'em topic. I'm still on the fence myself, BUT you guys have done a pretty amazing job convincing me to add them to my wardrobe. This week also brought a video to life, inspiring us to figure out our favorite...
Well, it's our final week of the #TMEStyleChallenge over on IG (@themomedit) and we are going out with a bang: MOM JEANS. So many of you had asked us how the heck to style mom jeans that we added on this final bonus week.
After much discussion in the TME office, we turned to our resident Gen Z-er (and...
We had a recent discussion during one of our TME meetings about what, exactly, constitutes "mom jeans" now. (Stay tuned for next week's Style Challenge!) Everyone kindaaa had a general idea of what they are, but no one was 100%. We basically all agreed they have a mid-to-high-rise and are somewhat straight, slouchy or baggy in the legs. They...
Okay y'all, I don't know that I would consider my new favorite pair of jeans to be full-blown Mom Jeans...but they definitely have mom-ish vibes.
Ever since I bought these Good American jeans back in December, I've been reaching for them again and again. Like most Good American jeans, they sit pretty high on the waist, and this magical...
What, exactly, are mom jeans? Good question. We've been discussing this very topic in the TME office, and have found ourselves somewhat dumfounded at how hard this is to answer. (I mean... S had a whole diagram on the white board trying to break down what they actually are.) We eventually came to the conclusion that if a boyfriend...
I know, I know, I KNOW. Last Fall I said that I wasn't *quite* ready for the Western boot trend. But they've grown on me (as I predicted they would) and ALSO, to further my defense, there's kiiiind of a big difference between cowboy boots and western booties.
Don't get me wrong: cowboy boots rock. Lex's recent article about her...
Mom jeans!!! What exactly are mom jeans?
Mom jeans are high-rise jeans with a straight or tapered leg. They make your waist look smaller, your hips wider, and sometimes they make you look like you have a penis when you're sitting — I still prefer that over the low rise that I had to pull up before sitting to avoid...
