3 Petite-Friendly Pairs of Leggings

As a petite woman, it’s always hard to find things that are the right length. Most dresses, pants, and leggings are too long and don’t fit right, so when I DO find items that fit me well, I want to shout it from the rooftops! I recently found this brand on Amazon (IUGA) and tried some of their leggings, and all 3 pairs are the perfect length for petites!

Check them out below!

High Support Leggings—I’m wearing size small in forest green. Flattering, compressive, and so comfy. My zip up jacket is the espresso color and a perfect fit for petites!

  1. Oversized Sweater + Slipper Clogs

always a classic and so cozy! This one is probably my go-to with leggings. An oversized sweater is the comfiest and pairs perfectly with leggings. I love to pair a cozy pair of socks and my slipper shoes with it!

  1. Crewneck + Puffer Vest + Chelsea Boots

I am a sucker for a cozy crewneck and this one has fleece on the inside making it super cozy! A puffer vest is a great fall layer! I added a matching bag to really bring it all together.

This half zip sweater is the perfect warm neutral color. If I was going out and about I’d definitely add a vest or coat over it too! I love pairing cute and comfy socks with clogs and leggings. Always so cozy.

Six Pairs of Shoes I Like to Wear with Barrel Jeans

Barrel jeans have become one of my favorite denim silhouettes. they’re relaxed through the leg, taper slightly at the ankle, and look effortless and put-together at the same time. But the question I get most often is: “what shoes can I wear with them?”*

Because of their shape, barrel jeans can be a little tricky to style. The solution is pairing the curved, voluminous leg with shoes that ground the outfit and highlight your ankle or add just enough height.

So today I’m breaking down six pairs of shoes that I think complement barrel jeans perfectly!

1. Mary Jane flats—I think a pair of Mary-Jane flats can go well with so many jeans! With barrel jeans, they bring a touch of femininity to the more masculine silhouette.

2. Low profile sneakers— the low profile sneaker helps to balance out the wider fit of the barrel jeans by showing your ankle a bit.

3. Clogs (heeled or flat)—I’m a big fan of clogs in all styles! They go with so many types of pants and dresses and skirts! They go well with barrel jeans because they help balance the volume.

4. Heeled boots— I love a heeled boot as a dressier option. The heel obviously adds some height and visually lengthens the leg line.

5. Slipper clogs—comfy and cute, I love these with barrel jeans! I feel like the bulkier shoe looks cute  with the volume of the barrel jeans.

6. Chelsea boots—I didn’t get a chance to add them in my video, but I also like to wear my Chelsea boots (Blundstones included!) with them. I know this may be a controversial opinion—because there is a lot of chatter around it making the legs too bulky—but I think the cropped fit of the jean and slim shaft of the boot look great together and it’s super fun functional!

When it comes down to it, it’s all personal preference! There are NO hard and fast rules and you should really wear what you want to wear and what feels good.

What’s your favorite kind of shoes to wear with barrel jeans?
