How to Wear: Straight Leg Jeans
In 2004, skinny jeans were ALL I wanted to wear; they felt fresh and badass, like 2012's bomber jackets and wedge sneakers. Now it's 2013 and skinny jeans (while still good, still necessary) seem a little overplayed.
But more than that, they're not always the best style for whatever shoe/top/outfit combination I have in mind. Instead, I'm finding straight-legged styles prove the most versatile picks from my denim shelf. Nine years ago, I ditched them during my pretending-to-be-Kate-Moss phase, but now I'm excited about them again. They look great, and they're often just a better pick than a crop or a flare. Click through to see my favorite ways to wear them.
Choose a super-faded or distressed wash and straight legs don't have to be safe and classic. Pairs like these mix well with grittier things like a smoky eye and studded moccasins. Go a size up and wear them slightly slouchy for added swagger.
