How To Wear Mom Jeans In 2022

Products purchased through this post may earn me a commission.

Mom jeans are back in a big way this year and I can’t get enough of them! Although, I still plan to wear my skinny jeans from time to time, mom jeans have taken their place as my go to everyday style. Keep reading to hear what makes mom jeans so special and how to wear them this year.

Outfit Details: Express Bodysuit (on sale + more on how to wear bodysuits here), Jeans (currently on sale!), & Lace Up Heels c/o, Amazon Bra, Michael Kors Purse (similar here, here, & here)

1. They Make Your Waist Look Smaller & Give You An Hourglass Figure

One thing that sets mom jeans apart from other styles of jeans is that they’re always high waisted. The high waistline not only makes your waist look smaller, but they also give you an hourglass figure.

2. They’re Comfortable

Thanks to their relaxed straight leg fit, mom jeans are so comfortable! I love my skinny jeans just as much as the next millennial, but sometimes they can be so uncomfortably tight! Thankfully that’s not an issue in these relaxed fit jeans.

3. They Accentuate Your Bum

Not only do mom jeans shrink your middle, and give you an hourglass figure, but they also accentuate your bum. If you wan’t to give off the appearance of curves, or would like to accentuate your curves even more, then these are the jeans for you.

4. They Lengthen Your Legs

For petite girls like me (I’m 5’4″) it’s important not to make your legs look any shorter. When it comes to jeans stick to skinny or straight leg for the most leg lengthen effect. Another reason these jeans are so great for shorter girls is the high waistline. That alone automatically lengthens your legs!

Pro Tip: If you’re still feeling short in these straight leg jeans try wearing them with your favorite pair of skin tone shoes/heels. They draw the eye all the way down to your toes without cutting you off at the ankles.

My Mother’s Day started at 4am with a nursing baby My Mother’s Day started at 4am with a nursing baby in my arms, a toddler crawling into my bed and falling asleep on my shoulder, & a doggie sleeping across my legs. 💕 They have no idea what today is, but I’m feeling so blessed to be surrounded by all my babies on Mother’s Day 👶🐶👧 Even if it was at 4am 🥱

Not pictured our dog Sydney. 🐶 I’m so tired I didn’t even notice until after we got these pictures 🤪 I knew I was forgetting something! 🙈

After laboring at home for 2 hours we JUST made it to the hospital maybe 45 minutes before he came out with 2 quick pushes! It all happened so fast my head is still spinning. 🥹 

So thankful my SIL @thedivinemissem77 answered her phone and came quickly to stay with Audrey & my hubby @npbrady9 taking care of everything else as we rushed to the hospital. ♥️ God is so good & we couldn’t be happier with the newest member of our family 🤗
