Tops to Wear with Barrel Jeans

Okayyy, so you grabbed the barrel jeans and yes—they’re insanely comfy—but now you’re staring at your closet like… what do I even wear with these?! Don’t worry, I’ve got you. Here are 5 cozy tops I’m pairing with mine for cooler weather!

1. A basic long sleeve

A basic long sleeve top is the easiest one to think of, in my opinion. A basic long sleeve looks great tucked into a pair of barrel jeans. Add a necklace, scarf, or vest or accessory to make it even more fun!

2. A sweater 

your sweater can be a crewneck, a v-neck, a boat neck or any type. Mine is a crewneck and it’s a little more oversized with a kind of high-low hem. It’s one of my favorites and I think it looks so cozy with barrel jeans.

3. A cardigan (unbuttoned as a layer or buttoned as a top)

A cardigan is one of my favorite layering pieces. Throw it over a tank, a tee, or a long sleeve and you’re super cozy. In the last few years I’ve also started wearing cardigans as tops, which is a great way to get more wear out of your cardigans!

4. A sweatshirt

I’m wearing a crewneck sweatshirt here, but it can be a henley sweatshirt, a 1/2 zip sweatshirt, or whichever type is your favorite. I think this is a cute and casual look paired with the barrel jeans.

5. A blouse

I don’t have a whole lot of blouses in my wardrobe, but I do like to have a few for an easy and cute top to pair with jeans. This green one has a more cropped fit, so it pairs well with the barrel jeans. If I was wearing a less cropped blouse, I would probably do a little front tuck.

Fall Outfits from Baltic Born

I did a little fall collaboration with Baltic Born and wanted to share the pieces I chose! They’re a great place to order from if you need wedding guest options, family photo outfits, or any type of outfit for a fancier event (but please be aware that their return policy only lets you return for store credit).

I’m wearing size xs in everything except for the brown dress (it’s size small because it doesn’t come in size xs).

You can use MARISSA15OFF for $$ off from Baltic born.

Under each photo, there’s a link to the item (or a similar option if it’s an older piece, as noted in the LTK description).

I thought this little green sweater was so cute! I paired it with jeans here, but also wore it with a denim skirt & tall boots this past weekend and it was so cute.
