Four Warm Weather Barrel Jeans Outfits (petite friendly and mom friendly)

No Comments

I have been wanting these barrel jeans from Old Navy for a while and I finally grabbed them when they were recently on sale. This is the medium wash and I am wearing size 0 petite—I am 5’1” for reference.

Upon first try on, I was like no way am I keeping these! BUT then I paired them with a few different tops & realized they’re super comfy and versatile, so I’m definitely keeping them and can’t wait to wear them even more.

Here are 4 ways I’m wearing them in this transitional season while it’s still warm, but I want to dress “fall-like”.

Outfit 1: with a cute tank

this little white top is adorable and I thought the femininity of the top was a fun contrast with the masculinity of the barrel jeans.

Outfit 2: with a basic tee

I feel like the barrel jeans are the star of the outfit, so pairing them with a simple tee really makes them stand out. I added a matching suede tote bag and matching sandals to bring it all together.

Outfit 3: with a white blouse

similar to the first outfit, I’m a big fan of the juxtaposition of the feminine and masculine between the top and jeans. I added a cute little brown bag and brown birk sandals to finish up the look.

Outfit 4: with a sweater tank

This was the first outfit I tried with the jeans—the cropped sweater tank and the wider jeans go well together. I think anytime you have a bigger jean, a more cropped top always looks good. I added my orange crossbody for a fun pop of color and my comfy Birkenstock sandals.

What I Wore on my Beach Vacation

No Comments

It is SO hard for me to pack for vacation—I want to have lots of options but never have enough room to truly bring everything I want to, plus there’s so many fun things to do, AND I want to look cute and feel comfy while doing them.

So, here are the outfits I wore while on vacation in Cape Cod. I felt really good in them all and comfy too! A win-win.

The days were warm and the nights were cool (along with the wind along the ocean!) so I have a good variety of outfits here—from swimsuits, to dinner outfits, to shopping and everything in between.
