Ok ladies, it took us a min (took M more like 10 minutes.. ha!) to hop on this barrel jean trend, but we’re finally on board! The most important thing we’ve learned when finding barrel jeans are to find a pair that work with your body type! For us, that is a more mild or “baby” barrel, a pair with a high waist, and something that isn’t too long. It’s all about the fit and how you style them!

Because barrel jeans are adding volume to the bottom half of your body, they’re going to look better with something fitted on the top or something where you can see the waist line! So wearing them with a bodysuit, top you tuck in, a belt, cropped sweater, etc. all work great!

We found 3 pairs that we are loving at 3 different price points. The Old Navy pair are considered “ankle”, so if you’re taller than 5’3, I would order a tall. I also have them in my true size, but you could size down one if between! The Loft pair that we both have are so soft and fit great! Size down one! And Katie’s Madewell pair are by far her favorite! She sized down two in these.
