How to Style Mom Jeans for a Casual Look
Thank you to Nordstrom Canada for sponsoring this post on styling mom jeans. As always, all opinions are my own.
I’m absolutely obsessed with mom jeans – the high waist and slightly relaxed fit flatter everyone and everyone.
Mom jeans are definitely a staple in any capsule wardrobe and you can wear them all year round!
Nordstrom Canada has a wide selection of mom jeans for a wide budget, including denim from brands such as BP., Topshop, Madewell and Agolde.
Fun Fact: Mom jeans are called mom jeans because “moms” used to wear them!
Without further ado, here are my tips on how to do it How to style mom jeans.
Also follow me on Instagram and TikTok – I share a lot more content on the platforms that don’t make it to the blog!
What are mom jeans?
Mom jeans are denim cuts that typically feature a high waist, a relaxed fit, and a tapered leg.
Because mom jeans have a slightly wider cut, they are super comfortable to wear.
They are also usually made from thicker denim which gives them their signature look!
I’m wearing the Madewell Perfect Vintage Jeans in a lovely gray and black shade and they are one of the best mom jeans I’ve ever worn.
The fit of the jeans is super flattering, especially in the butt area with the elongated back pockets.
The jean is also available in a lovely light wash color if you’re not into dark wash denim or if you’re looking to expand your capsule wardrobe!
If you are a petite girl, the length of the jeans is a perfect ankle length fit.

Wear a crop top
Since mom jeans have a high-waisted fit, crop tops are the perfect top to pair with.
My puff sleeve top is from ASTR the Label and it is such a chic and elegant piece that can go with so many different outfits.
The ruched bodice and cropped fit are super flattering and I love the lovely puff sleeves!
There is also a similar puff sleeve top from Open Edit, only the sleeves are shorter and the material is linen.
Mom jeans are so versatile, you can wear them with fitted or baggy tops – be sure to tuck them in at the front or all the way in if your top isn’t cropped!
Put on chunky boots
Chunky boots have been all the rage for the past few years, and I’m definitely all for it.
I’ve been a fan of Dr. Martens, and the Jadon boots that have become super popular are absolutely amazing.
They feature a badass platform and side zip, making them easier to slip on!
You can either tuck your mom jeans into the boots or wear the jeans over them, depending on how tapered the denim is.
If you don’t like the look of platform shoes, the Dr. Martens 1460 Pascal boot a classic boot that goes with everything.
For a more casual look, you can also turn up the bottom of the mom jeans – I personally think that would go best with sneakers!
If you want to spice up your mom jeans, you can even pair this outfit with a pair of low strappy heels.

- Wear a crop top
