Six Ways to Wear Wide Leg Jeans for the Cooler Months

Wide leg jeans are back in a big way and I’m so excited. Alternatively, they can be called flare jeans or bootcut jeans, but it doesn’t matter what you call them–they’re cute! They remind me so much of my teen years because that’s all I wore before skinny jeans were introduced! I am excited to style and wear them because I think they can be so flattering on everyone and also very comfortable.

In these six outfits, I am wearing some sort of heeled shoe. I have found that the best way for me to not have the wide leg jean problem where you step on your hem and then it gets all wet, dirty, and frayed, is to have two different pairs of wide leg jeans– one pair that you wear with heeled shoes, and one pair that you wear with flat shoes. Let me know if you’d like to see a “ways to style wide leg jeans with flat shoes” post and I’d be happy to do that.

If you prefer video content, you can watch the reel HERE.

The first way is with a black top (mine is a mock neck bodysuit) and a long duster cardigan. I have black pointed toe heels on here, but you could certainly switch them out for black heeled boots instead! This outfit is linked HERE.

In this second look I am wearing a taupe long sleeve tee and a quilted vest. I found this vest on etsy and it’s just so cute and makes any outfit fun! I paired it with my taupe sock booties from Vivaia (mine are a sold out pair, but I linked a similar pair). This outfit is linked HERE.

I just love the colors in this third look– so warm and fall like. This sweater is a heavier weight and has a textured feel and I love the boxy, oversized fit. I paired it with the leather honey colored festival bag from Portland Leather Goods and brown leather block heel boots. This outfit is linked HERE.

I’m wearing the taupe long sleeve tee again in this fourth look and I layered with this taupe sweater vest. I added my sock booties to sort of make an “outfit sandwich” (this term means using the same color on the top and bottom to really bring your outfit together cohesively). This outfit is linked HERE.

In this outfit I am wearing a cozy oversized grey turtleneck (IMO: turtlenecks ALWAYS look great with wide leg pants), and these olive colored madison cork clogs from Aetrex. This outfit is so comfy and has a librarian like feel to it. This outfit is linked HERE.

For my last outfit, I am wearing this Quince cardigan as a top and I tucked it in to make me look taller. My boots match quite well with it and it brings it all together nicely. This outfit is linked HERE.

How to Wear a Black Puffer Vest

I bought this black puffer vest from amazon in the fall & it has been one of my favorite items! I throw it on for errands & I feel like it instantly makes me look cooler, haha. It also is AWESOME for mamas with small kids because you have a little more mobility when it comes to carrying them around and such. I stuck to my true size but if you’re taller than me you may want to size up because it is a more cropped style.

I put together this blog post with photos of a bunch of ways I’ve worn it so far. I’m not going to link everything in this blog post, but I think all of these outfits have already been posted on my liketoknow.it & you can find the links there.

Which outfit is your favorite? Comment below or pin to your Pinterest style boards!

3 Fall Items (Styling Each One Two Ways!)

I have been slacking on writing blog posts lately– it’s the final quarter of the year & life seems busier than ever! We’ve had a bunch of fall fun AND a bunch of sickness that comes with this time of year, so I haven’t been able to hop on here and post. Here are a few outfits from Pinkblush that I have been wanting to share for a little bit now!

I am sharing two photos of each item below– how I styled each item to share in a reel, and how I wore the items out and about.

If you prefer video content, you can watch my reel HERE.

This dress is so pretty- I love the neutral print, the mini length, & the deep v neck!
My boots and my mules are old, so I linked some similar pairs! my bag is The Festival Bag from Portland Leather goods in the honey color.

I’m obsessed with the color of this shacket. It’s called charcoal on the website and that’s a perfect description. It’s a pretty dark grey that goes with everything!
I linked a few similar options of items (my tan boots & my henley button top), everything else is linked as well!

This tan fleece button up is so cozy and perfectly oversized! Love it with my tan chelsea boots!
Everything is linked below– I got my blundstone boots from Zappos but also linked them on amazon for more sizes.

6 FALL PIECES & WHERE I’M PLANNING ON WEARING THEM

Fall is here! It was 40* when I woke up this morning & when you’re walking around or driving in your car, you can see the leaves are beginning to change. I love summer so much & I’m sad to see it go– but I also love fall & especially fall fashion!
I have three pieces from Pinkblush to share that are perfect for transitioning from summer to fall weather.

I love the cute items that Pinkblush consistently has & I partner with them regularly. You can use MARISSAELISE25 for $$ off on their website.

Under each picture I will link everything I can (if it’s not available I will try & find something similar) using affiliate links. This means if you purchase something using my links, I earn a small commission at no additional cost to you. I always appreciate any & all support– in terms of purchases, reading my blog, or likes & saves on my content. You guys make this so fun for me & I am so grateful.

This outfit is PERFECT for the winery or brewery (I pick winery!).

This top is 100% cotton, lightweight, and is a great transitional piece. I paired it with one of my new favorite pairs of madewell jeans and boots. My boots are old but I linked similar!

This silky top is a perfect piece to go from summer to fall. I plan on wearing it to the Farmer’s Market just like this.

The camel color is gorgeous, and I love it paired with a sweater tank (mine is old & I linked similar). Again, wearing my madewell jeans here & these target mules which are as comfy as they are cute.

THIS is the dress I plan to wear for our fall family photos.

The print is so pretty (love those orange flowers!) and I love a flowy, long sleeve dress so much!

This chunky cardigan will be worn with jeans, dresses, leggings, sweatpants– you name it. It’s perfect for a coffee run with sweats or leggings in the morning or dressed up with jeans, a nice top & boots!

It’s a neutral taupe color & perfect for cozying up in on cooler days! I paired it with my Levi wedgie skinny jeans & these ADORABLE new boots from Nordstrom.

This thick henley is a gorgeous green color & so comfy. I plan on wearing it either apple or pumpkin picking!

I paired it with a different (but still AMAZING!) pair of madewell jeans and these birkenstock boston clog lookalikes. These ones have a shearling lining & are so cozy!

From the moment I received this dress I have been obsessed with the print. I wore this dress on a date night with my husband.

It’s such a pretty yellow & the puff sleeves make it even cuter. I paired it with my Portland Leather Goods Toaster bag & my favorite heels from Target.
